I was recommended to check out this club by my friend. I did not initially plan on joining this club, but then I was convinced by one of the club members. As I entered, I was astonished by the number of people there. IT was packed and I was feeling uncomfortable with the crowd. The room was packed: the chairs were filled and there were even numerous students standing by the walls and sitting on the floor. The club members gave me a brief explanation of the purpose of the club; that was when I decided that I wanted to be part of the UCLA so I signed up by giving my basic information along with my email.
The most tempting part of her explanation were the activities that the club was involved in. The following Tuesday, September 12, she notified me that there was going to be an activity where we would be making paper lanterns. Even though it sounds exciting, I doubt I will be able to have the time to participate due to my schedule. It is a shame that I would not be able to go, but there will always be next time for the activities.
Furthermore, she explained that the club was not as demanding as it sounded, and the events that they were planning seems to be quite interesting. For instance, she described that the UCLA will be holding a sports day like event where we would be participating along with other clubs. This seemed to be a fun and interactive activity in which I look forward to!
As I was conversing with the club members, they wore a bright welcoming smile and their tone was of excitement. It made me feel like they are having fun and that joining the club would also provide experiences in which I would enjoy.
