A little review of the year 🎆
My 2017 started with a fantastic tour in universities in Florida 🇺🇸 where I also visited Disney World !
Completed two big projects including
#1 completed my document and defense which Means I became a Doctor! 🌟 this project including finishing my transcription of Bela Bartok’s fifth string quartet for marimba quartet!
#2 organized a fun tour with Without Boarder Percussion Quartet (4Loko$’ =>yes, we change our name already 🤣) We did performances and clinics/workshops in Taipei, Yunlin, and Tokyo 🇯🇵!
Other than that, I also got invited to play and teach at Downriver Day of Percussion, IPA Clinuc Day, and Bowling Green University !
Summer in Taiwan 🇹🇼 is always an amazing time for me. I worked at the Taipei International Percussion Summer Camp again this year and learned so much! Thank you Mr. ju and Larry Huang for giving me the opportunity. Another cool thing that I did over the summer is to be a judge for the 2017 TPAA Taiwan percussion championship and translated for Nanae Mimura! I also get to visit a new country this year! Thanks to Fei Sir and Man Man’s organization, I had the great chance to visit Macao 🇲🇴 and meet new friends!
A super cool opportunity and honor in the second half of the year is to play with MSU percussion ensemble at 2017 PASIC Show Case Concert. I got the opportunity to present a piece that was written for me this year called “Round for Three Muses” by Andrea Clearfield. I’m so happy that I get to play this piece over and over again (especially in this amazing stage).
In addition, I finally stated recording section for my new project!! Please stay in tune with me!
Last, I get to spend my winter break in California with some family members that I haven’t seen for years!!! Lucky me! ❤️

Life is not so easy. But I’ll keep going with each of you in my mind. Thank you for bringing me courage .
Bye bye 2017 ! ( you are beautiful )
