This week is Clubs Week at Western and it always seem like a big event because the amount of people gathered at UCC (University Community Center). This year I was pretty hesitant on joining JSA (Japanese Student Association) because I had a bad impression of CSA (Chinese Student Association) last year because of how fob and fake the Execs were. Nevertheless, I actually had the courage to go check out JSA’s booth at UCC.

Some Exec burnt a CD of recent Jpop releases including the opening song and ending song of Hanazakari to Kimitachi he by ORANGE RANGE and Otsuka Ai respectively. Others include the B-side to Otsuka Ai’s Peach and miss you by m-flo loves melody.. I asked Anderson (I think that’s his name) if I can have a copy and he said, “If you sign up.” So I did, not only for the CD though; I wanted to meet Ishida Shoji, the president of JSA. I talked to Anderson and asked him about Kentaro. All of last year during Japanese class I just thought his name was Ken, and not Kentaro. Anderson told me it was because Kentaro didn’t wanted people to call him Kenta-ro the English-way.

Anyway, I decided during the summer that I would join the UWO Choir, however when I went up to the booth, the person behind the booth said the entrance fee is 40$. I was like… “T____T It’s so expensive.” I didn’t join, though I’m still thinking about it. If I do join, I’m definitely getting a job to earn that 40$ back. I’m definitely not doing Marching Band though.

Lulu and Chen have somehow “persuaded” me into going for Internal Executive for the Canadian Cancer Society, which is what Yin did last year. I’m not really interested in it, but I just didn’t want to disappoint them by not going for it.

I joined Pre-Education Society too. I hope it’s worth the money.

I also joined WAVE. WAVE is the abbreviation for Western Anime Video Explosion, and I met Mary there, who also lived at Delaware last year that I met through Wen and Yin. I realized recently, that although I didn’t really make a lot of friends last year, I have so much more opportunity because I know a lot of people by name, and there are big opportunities to get to know them better. I just hope I can be a little more outgoing this year.

I met Aaron at UCC. He said I lived far from campus when I told him where I lived. It was good to see people you lived with last year. *sigh* I miss Deli =(.

In other very off-topic news…
I’ve been quite curious about Himitsu no Hanazono, and I started it, but stopped myself going too far into the story because I wanted to finish all the dramas that I said I would finish.. This is the list:

1. Hanazakari no Kimitachi he
2. Bambino
3. Proposal Daisakusen
4. 1 Litre of Tears
5. Liar Game

Long list I know. I always get very unmotivated to continue the series when I don’t have the episodes on hand, which is why I would prefer to watch everything together at once. Which is surprising, because since I discovered First Kiss, I’ve been pretty loyal at watching the week-by-week episodes uploaded on d-addicts.com. This week is the last week of the 2007 Fall Drama season in Japan, and the raw version of the last episode of First Kiss has been uploaded on d-addicts.com. Hopefully, by the time I wake up tomorrow morning, the torrent would have finished and I’ll be able to see it when I get home from school.

I spent about 70$ today. I spent a total of 30$ on Clubs (10$ - JSA; 10$ - Pre-Ed; 5$ - CCS; 5$ WAVE), and if I join Choir, then I would have spent 70$ altogether for Clubs alone. I went shopping at the dollar store and I also bought a plastic dresser at Wal-Mart.

I have my first physics lab tomorrow afternoon, but I still have to read the manual… *sigh*
