Month: September 2017

The club I attended was Model Un. I thought I would be fun to try something new. We started off with some ice breakers, which was a good way to get everyone to interact with each other. After a few rounds we all got seated and the members of the club gave us a general overview of what model un is. They’re the only club that travels internationally in the entire school, which I thought was pretty cool. The club is however, very demanding and requires you to input your time and energy. I don’t know if I am going to join but it seems fun.

Hi I’m Maleeha and my friends and I went to the Model UN general info session. It was fun doing cute icebreakers like getting in order by the number of siblings and getting in alphabetical order but to be honest after convocation icebreakers trigger me. Anyways as you can tell by the title there was no food but I guess it didn’t matter because the meeting was very informative and discussed about the work ethic and dedication needed for Model UN and the process to apply. I wanted to join at first because I thought that the club can help me improve on my public speaking skills but now I’m not sure if this is the right club for me. Tough luck.

   

The event that I attended is called FUSION’s general interest meeting. I attended this event on Thursday September 9, 2017. FUSION stands for Filipinos Uniting Students In Other Nations.Despite it being Filipino anyone can attend or join! Its main goal is a social club which unites students of all nations. There are many upcoming events such as the club fair, the Mr. Pi Fundraiser, Free Food Challenge along with pageant events. The atmosphere was very friendly and relaxing. The treasurer is my coworker! Another interesting thing that I saw was Fusion clothing and merchandising. The outfits look great! Fusion provides many events to gain hours, experience and to connect with others. I look forward to joining this club.

Today I went to the Marketers of Baruch(MOB) Interest meeting in Room 4 -211. The room was full of people and some people had to stand on the sides. The leaders of the group put on a slideshow showcasing many things, such as what the group had done, the introduction for the different activities in the group, its leaders, and what they were trying to improve. They showcased the various places their former members had gone to work as, and what they could do for future group members. After that, they handed out pizza and chicken and answered private questions from the participants.

I went to the United Chinese Language Association club today with my boy Kenny. There was a lot of Chinese people just like me there. First the executives introduced themselves. Then we made lanterns to celebrate the upcoming Chinese holiday, Mid-Autumn, and played games which included google feud and zoom. I talked with one of the club advisers and her name was QiQi, which I thought was a cool ass name. There was Chinese food too and I got myself some chow mein. Although it was an alright club meeting, I don’t see myself joining it. Yo I swear I was actually at the club meeting though. This was just the only picture Kenny took while I was there.

This past Thursday, I stopped by the Hillel at Baruch in order to get more involved in the club. Being a Jew on a non Jewish campus, it allows me to connect to all the other Jewish people on campus. It also allows me to feel like I always have a place to go if I ever have any questions or concerns about school. After socializing and eating with the president and vice president of the Hillel, I know that the Hillel at Baruch will provide me with a place to continue to explore my Jewish identity. I am looking forward to being a full participant during my time at Baruch.
