One of the many draws to college is meeting new people and joining the many clubs and groups there are. One such group is UCLA or the United Chinese Language Association. They’ve held two GIM, of which I attended the second. Originally, I was informed of this club on our day of convocation, where a few students were handing out flyers for people that were interested in the club. After taking one, they had me register with an email and name, and after that I was to show up to a meeting. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it to the first meeting, so I attended the second meeting. When I got there, most everyone was already engaged in activity and they began to play a game where you had to guess what an object or person was based on a zoomed in image. The game was a great way to lighten up the mood. We all had a chance to engage in some form of conversation to get to better know one another. Near the end of the club, there was some confusion due to us needing to gather for a group picture, but the room was tight and there was not much space so we ended up being all clumped together. After that was all settled though, they began handing out the food which had arrived moments earlier. That didn’t work out too well because everyone was freaking out over free food, and both lines were enormously long. I couldn’t stay for the food because I was running low on time, but the club had dispersed soon after I had left. Even still it was an overall great experience and I would like to attend more meetings as well as other clubs to better understand the school and to meet more people.
