Henri participates in Culture Show preparations
After having gone with Kate to look at the MSE Library, Henri wanted to get an idea of what she does besides studying. As a result, Henri found himself trekking with Kate to Charles Commons’s multipurpose one sunny Sunday afternoon to observe a Culture Show dance practice by the Filipino Students Association.
Upon entering the room, Henri took a look at some of the framed photographs on the multipurpose room’s wall, including a photo of two Buddhist monks. After his idyllic museum-like experience, he realized that he and Kate were the only people who had shown up so far.

Furthermore, there were several chairs arranged in a circle in the middle of the room! Oh, no! What should they do? Always the nobleman,

Henri helped Kate push aside the chairs while waiting for other people to show up. However, there still weren’t other people in the room when Kate and Henri were done pushing chairs. Kate thought that perhaps some people were lost trying to find their way to the multipurpose room.

She started to make signs to hang in the Charles Commons hallway that would point in the direction of the room – and once again, Henri offered his assistance.

Finally, two FSA members came into the room while carrying two large bamboo poles that are used in the Filipino folk dance tinikling. Once they were laid on the floor, Henri examined the poles up close to satisfy his curiosity. Not long afterwards, more people arrived at the multipurpose room, and Henri had the pleasure of watching them practice tinikling.
