Hmm.. what's the point of joining these clubs and societies anyways ? I heard it promotes yourself in being an active member of some out-of-study organisation.. supposedly a postive thing employers look for. Am i rite or totally out of whack ?

I was at o-week yesterday (monday) and NOTHING was open. I'm wondering where do we sign up to the clubs and any other little infos i should know about. eg. deadlines, pros / cons about clubs and etc.

I think they only just opened today on Tuesday. Anyway you have over two weeks to join them, O-week is when you can and during the first week of session there's a second chance to join any you really wanted to but couldn't find. That's what a yellow shirt guide told me.

Beginners only get to practice swings, and My cousin says the fights are structured. But then he goes to volleyball which is on the same time.. so it might be biased

I was looking for that today too! I couldn't find it, and was very disappointed.

I joined the Hillsong Campus, which I was fairly impressed with, filled out forms for a couple of other Christian clubs, and also joined the UNSW Chinese Society.

A guy from the Formosa Ideology and Cultural Society came up to my friend an I and told us that Jay Chou were gonna visit them. I thought it sounded a little farfetched, and it turns out that I was right. He said "Jay Chou's not coming okay? I was lying!" or something like that. Haha, it was funny.
