![Sophomore Holly Huang twirls a ribbon as she performs her dance, “Joy of the Dragon.” Chinese ribbon dance is a traditional art form originating in ancient China. Her ribbon dance was inspired by the revered mythical creature and this year’s Chinese zodiac sign, the dragon. “My ribbon symbolized a dragon flying in the air. My outfit was [also] inspired by the dragon, the color was the same color as my ribbon, but on the shoulder there were some details like dragon scales,” Huang said. “I liked how there were a lot of people in the audience and it was just really fun to perform.”](https://www.tjtoday.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/IMG_0964-1-1200x774.jpg)
![During a dance to a mashup of “Wannabe” and “Vogue,” junior Mandy Huang, bottom middle, lifts her hands at the end, striking a pose with the other junior dancers. “At first, [MEX] was stressful because practices went by so quickly and it felt like I would never be able to memorize the choreography, but the choreographers were amazing,” Huang said. “When we were about halfway to Homecoming, turnout to practices was so low that one of our choreographers brought bomb pops to try and lure people back into MEX.”](https://www.tjtoday.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/IMG_3858-1-1200x800.jpg)
