I spent my recent club hours break at Baruch much differently than I usually did. For past month or so, I would usually put this two and half hour break in between classes into working on some form of school work or spending it to eat lunch with a friend down at Madison Square Park. This Thursday was a bit different from my usual break spent either alone doing work, or in social activity away from the school. With this upcoming Baruch Blog being due soon for my Freshman Seminar class my friend and I had to think of some sort of activity that would satisfy one of its requirements. We decided to head towards the direction of the club rooms.

At first we had much trouble in deciding on what club to join as we were faced with a board listing a myriad of clubs and organizations. Some of the clubs were culture based and others were more interest and hobby based. We were at a complete loss for which club we would join, so we wandered the halls of the club rooms peeking in room by room. It was in this process that we met the vice president of the anime club, who happened to know my friend, approached us. She recommended that we join the anime club. As we walked into the room, we were introduced to a brightly decorated room covered in various posters. There was also of course, the group of about ten club members sitting in the room discussing their various interests some relating directly to anime and some just being general conversation. My friend and I were very welcomed by the ”officials” of the club, and began talking, getting introduced and settled into the club. It was here that we found the club we were looking for the whole time, being surrounded by friendly people of similar interests, we look forward to our future Thursdays here at the club room.
