Life

Life has been treating me well lately. I've been working pretty intensely on setting up a club, called the Japanese Manga and Cosplay Club. This organization is meant to be a place where UMD students can go and have meaningful discussions on different aspects of Japanese manga while befriending others with similar interests. Once we get going, we will also try to participate in local events revolving around manga and cosplay. Presently, I am only a few signatures away from submitting my petition to the SAO, so I am excited.
Other than that, nothing too interesting has happened--I had a pretty mellow break, but appreciated being able to see my friends (over the last few weeks, since the schools decided to plot against the students and make our breaks at different times). I have also been beefing up my Magic the Gathering decks, hoping to find some people to play with around campus and at home.
A couple weekends ago, my orchestra played Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, which even got aired on the radio. We actually did incredibly well--especially considering that the piece has been deemed the hardest composition of the 20th century. Thanks goes to my conductor and all my fellow musicians for making such an extraordinary event possible.
