On February 14th, TNF spent the day celebrating both Valentine's Day and Lunar New Year. In the morning all Van nghe dance groups practiced hard whether it came to Mua Lan, Thieu/Nghia, and Nganh Au. While everyone was practicing, we all rooted each other on to get hyped for the big night. After some delicious tuna sandwiches and cookies, our Van nghe performers got ready to get into sinh hoat. Watching everyone dedicating every minute of practice to perfect their performances made my day. The amount of devotion and hard work put into each performance proves how our TNF family is in it to win it!
During sinh hoat both nganh Au and nganh Thieu spent time making Valentine's cards for their loved ones. Many surprised each other with multiple cards with cheesy love puns. The amount of love and adoration in the air truly showed how loving TNF Torrance is. We surely are a tight knit family!
Later that night our groups looked absolutely stunning in their costumes. For instance, nganh Thieu were adorably dressed in yellow and pink ao ba ba with braids to match to top of their Vietnamese traditional look. When it came to nganh Au were dressed in colorful ao dai's. With our performers looking more than perfect, the crowd were pumped to see our Tet performers. After a fun time watching Mua Lan, nganh Au finally got to debit their cool dance. Our little dancers looked adorable dancing to the song "Tet Den Roi." Afterwards nganh Thieu came out working their glamorous fans to the song "Xuan Que Ta." In all all of our performers did an amazing job and working the crowd on stage.
Big thank you to all of those who contributed to making this night super special. TNF Torrance continues to do amazing things and especially this Tet is something to remember! Thanks for reading. If you're interested to seeing this special day yourself, come check out our vlog below.
