I’ve realised I hardly post about my social life in regards to uni – I think the last time I made a proper post about it was when it was orientation week  So here’s a quick post on a Christmas party I went to on Saturday 

I really like my uni’s anime club, everyone is really great and friendly  I’ve made a lot of friends through that club (and the Japanese society) this year  I was really nervous about transferring to another university but in the end I’m glad I did 

I think having a social life is important as well as studying, university’s a great opportunity to meet new people especially since there’s so many international students  The university I went to previously was really small so even know I met a lot of nice people there, there was not much social interaction beyond the required classes. They also didn’t have any clubs besides sporting ones I think lol 

So at USYD, most of the societies I’ve joined have a lot of meetings and social gatherings. The anime party I went to was hosted by another local uni but they invited other unis to attend  I had a pretty good time though I mainly talked to people I knew. It was really hard to hear people over the music lol Also there wasn’t that much food It seems like from the events I’ve been to that are held in room blooked hotels, it’s better to eat beforehand

But luckily we had cake to eat! My fellow Anime club execs (I’m one of the art directors next year!) also got me this adorable bear cake. It was very creamy and delicious

They had lots of prizes going around and so it became like a “SUAnime – let’s aim for the prizes compeition time” – lightheartedly of course  XP When we pooled together for Pokemon bingo, we managed to win a gundam! They gave it to me since it was my birthday
