Student's Entry #1 (Olympic Club)
When I was a high school
student, there was an elective class only once a week. Our nation's education
system is weighted on college admissions, meaning that students have to study
Korean, Mathematics, English, Social Science, and Science; more than extra
subjects such as PE, art, music etc. I had focused on my 'major subjects', and because
of that my PE score was very low. Last year, I was so weak that I always caught
a cold. What was worse was that I got pneumonia.
I have thought that I could
enjoy exercising after entering university. However, I do not have a lot of time
to work out because I have lots of homework to do. Also the Health Club is kind of expensive, and
I don't have a lot of money. Luckily, for me there is a club called 'Olympic
Club' in which I can perform light exercises in the gym for free.
I joined the Olympic Club to
help enhance my health. The club helps me to be healthy and is very fun, it
also helps me with speaking English too. My team is Ireland, and it is
comprised of three members: two girls and one boy. The shot put is the most
interesting sports to me. I've never had the experience of doing the shot put, so
I was very unfamiliar with that.

Student's Entry #2 (Card Club and TV Club)
Many students do not know
how to play any card games. So we all had to learn the basics first. Our TA Dan and our professor were very
passionate and patient enough to teach us about it. They would join us while they teach us the
rules of the game and there would be interaction not only towards the students
but also with the TA and the professor itself.
As the game progresses on, each of us would write down our score on a
piece of paper and by the end of the game, we would find out who the winner was. In addition, winners are given Choco Pies as
their award.
Signing up for Club B was
rather exciting. I was actually the
first person to sign up for TV club and with the rest of the clubs. In my case, I chose to join TV club because
if I chose the other ones, I would have time conflict with my other major
subjects. My friend, Eun Ji, who is also
my classmate in my GEO class, recommended it to me.
Due to the Korean holiday
and mid-terms that has recently passed, I am still yet unable to join and tell
you about how TV Club is. I don’t really
know how it goes (TV Club) but I am looking forward to joining it as soon as I
can because I am also curious and excited to see how different it could be from
the previous club I joined.
Originally,
we had only one club in one semester but it was changed. I think that it is a good way to have various
experiences. I want to participate in
more clubs later.
