end-of-semester

Semester 2 is drawing to a close and I hope everyone did well on their exams.
While Uni mght be over, SUAnime isn’t so come to our next events which will be held sometime in the near future. We will also be doing another revamp of the website so that we can bring even more new fresh content to you guysand be reviewing what we usually post up here.

Do come to the Christmas party as it’ll be an extremely awesome event and a great time to wind down after all the hard stress from exams. It will be held in December and there will be some prizes up for grabs at the event.

Also Japanese film festival is running from the 24th of November and SUAnime will be going to watch one of their only anime film, Summer Days with Coo. Everyone is welcome to join us.

Finally I would like to thank all our members for supporting us through this tough year and creating what is the anime community in the University of Sydney. I would also like to thank our past executives for all their hard work over the year and best wishes to those leaving us.

It’s been a blast!.

Trivia Night #2!

September 18th, 2009 by Ettin

WHEN: Friday, 25th September, 6-9PM

WHERE: Carslaw 351

WHY: Why not

Hey look the trivia is here! Again!

The Trivia Night, also known as the Shameless Excuse To Sit Around A Room In Carslaw Eating Pizza And Watching Suzaku Laugh For Ten Minutes, was a hit last year (all right, a light tap) and this time we are giving more advance notice like we are supposed to!

The idea is simple: Show up, have something to drink, do some trivia, have some pizza, and hang out. Mostly the trivia part. The questions are mostly multiple choice, but I’m going to try and mix it up this year with some different things. The questions are mostly anime-related because otherwise it would just be silly, but we do our best to make the trivia accessible to everyone.  To give you an idea, here are some sample questions from last time:

Which of the following anime series is NOT based on an RPG?
a) Tales of the Abyss
b) Valkyria Chronicles
c) Phantom of Inferno
d) Star Ocean

Which of these is not a Pokemon?
a) Charmander
b) Blaziken
c) Darkrai
d) Yoshi

In TTGL, Simon leaps through time and space to stop Rossiu from killing himself by…
a) Talking him out of it
b) Tying him up
c) Forgiving him
d) Punching him in the face

(No you don’t need to send me the answers. I forgot them anyway!)

There are all kinds of categories ranging from the latest season of anime to the oldest shows to Janken King to Books Written By People Who Were Assassinated By The Irish Republican Army (back by popular demand!). Prizes are up for grabs, though personally I think the good times and the pizza are reward enough.

It is free entry, though there is a pizza tax ($5 for members and $8 nonmembers, which gets you a whole pizza to yourself and a free drink). Additional drinks are probably  $1.

RSVP to me at events@suanime.org by noon on Thursday the 24thwith the usual details. Specify a pizza preference as well because we are going to order the pizza shortly after six, and you can either give your pizza pref in email, show up ON TIME or beg for scraps.

See you there!

Annual General Meeting!

September 15th, 2009 by saki

This is the major get-together where the elections for the new exec team for 2009/2010 are held! The sum of it is that ANY club member (that is you have signed up as a member some time during this year, which means you also have an ACCESS card) can nominate themselves or accept nominations for any exec position(s) AND you can vote in the elections of your fellow peers too! To nominate for or to find out more about a position send an email to personnel@suanime.org

WHEN: 6 – 9 pm, Friday 9th October

WHERE: Eastern Avenue Seminar Room 116

 
We will also be discussing amendments to our constitution at the AGM. The constitution of the club states how we manage the club. The executive team is proposing the following amendments to the constitution to be discussed and possibly voted upon at the AGM:

Motion 1: To change the number of times to meet per semester for an ordinary meeting to every four (4) weeks. An ordinary meeting is the place where you as a member can discuss and help plan events etc of the club – to participate in the running of the club without necessarily being an exec! XD

Motion 2: To discuss the executive position, the Librarian, and its possible future role in the club. (I wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t know there was even a Librarian exec – the librarian has been very, very quiet…! =P)

 

 Hope to see you there!
