There was a club fair held a few weeks back on Thursday and I went there. I didn’t commit to any clubs but I did hear a few club members from different club fairs briefly talk about their clubs and I did put my name and email down for a few of them. To list a few of the stalls I went to were for: UCLA, Baruch Accounting Society, Japanese Anime Asylum, and Baruch NYC Hong Kong Club. The people speaking to us were all very nice, they were talking about a lot stuff that I couldn’t hear for the most part because of the loud speaker playing in the gym. I was awkwardly smiling and nodding, pretending I’m hearing what they’re telling me. Then I checked with Zhilou, I wasn’t the only one who didn’t hear them… we were both blindly nodding due to the circumstances. I was told that UCLA is like family, a big group of asians and all one family. The accounting club is definitely super professional, it was the real deal, not a club that you can chill and relax in, for the parts that I did hear her say, they do business presentations and various internship related activities, I went there for the free cookies. Hong Kong club was also a somewhat family based club?… the girl told me they went on a barbecue trip the week before and gave me an event list and it seems like it’s all a big gathering hangout: the club is to help those Hong Kong international students and to inform others of Hong Kong’s cultures. The last one I went to was anime club, I love to watch anime so I thought I should stop because why not? They had a board for students to write down their favorite anime and I wrote down: ONE PIECE! 800+ episodes and the manga is still ongoing, tons of adventures still waiting to happen, I love One Piece. I didn’t officially join any club but I’ll consider a few.
