J-Club @ UNSW (1 Viewer)

[j-belle]

So, who among you joined this?
(If you're keen, you don't have to be a UNSW student even, all of our events take place after uni anyway - eg get-togethers, dinners etc). It'd be interesting to see if any of the Japanese students (or others interested in Japanese) took this up.

whats the club all about etc? Just for people who like Japan?

I joined. It took me ages to find it, but I finally did! Soo Jin was really nice

Soo Jin? That doesn't sound Japanese.

I'm not even a Japanese student anymore.

soo jin is the KOREAN leader of J-club, which is a club targeted at new Japanese language students or people interested in japanese culture

yes she's very nice (it'd be a big culture conflict to have a Korean leader for Japanese club!).

And also towards actual Japanese students.. you'll see at the first meetup I guess.

For the Japanese students who can't be bothered helping those who are interested in learning J

I still can't be bothered with anything UNSW. You're just too far out of the way to be of any use to me.

Certainly. But I think we've discovered the best Japanese restaurants by now, so we probably just go to them, and experiment with 2 new ones per year..

As far as I remember, UTS is next to Central, which has buses running directly to UNSW. Hmm..

True, but UNSW isn't on the way to anything, so I'd really only be going there for this one thing. Not really worth the time, considering it can take half an hour during peak periods, and the walking!
