On September 7th, I took part in the UCLA GIM #2 (United Chinese Language Association General Interest Meeting) and I plan to join the club. Since there were so many people in the room, there wasn’t enough seats for everyone. I was one of the people that sat on the floor. The meeting started with the purpose of the club, which was the information section of the meeting and then we moved on to the games or “ice breakers”.
The games were very enjoyable. We played Google Feud in which it was the left group versus the right group. I was part of the group on the right. Google Feud was difficult and some of the answers were surprising (well not surprising, but rather made me question popular searches) because some of the answers were very idiotic or would make you say: “What? Why?”. One round was that my group had to solve “trump _” and the answer to the blank were mainly about President Trump, which was a bit funny because everyone was trying to name the answers, such as “trump son”, “trump wife”, or “trump fake news”. A few people complained in a lighthearted manner that it wasn’t fair that we got an easy one, but they did get “powdered _” as one of their rounds. Another game we played was Zoom and in this game an image is zoomed to a portion and you must guess what the actual image is. There were Timberland boots, men’s boxers, a Poland Spring Bottle, and other images.
I plan to get involved by going to the meetings and participating in some of the events, like the Chinese New Year celebration. We took a group photo, which is on their Facebook; and free food was given, which a lot of people lined up for.
