JSA ver. 2012 ~ 2013始動

どうも、ゼオです。

夏休みが終わり、ついに新学期が始まりました。
始まったと言ったものの、もう二週間が過ぎました。
始まる次の週にLabor Day Weekendが重なると、どうしても本調子になれませんよね・・・
皆さんもようやくお休み気分が取れて、学生っぽくなりましたでしょうか？

さて、先々週の金曜日（８月３１日）に JSA Welcome Party を開催しました。
約３０名の小規模ではありましたが、皆さん楽しんでくれたと思います（願望）
JSA の紹介から始まり、生活に役立つプチ情報会、立食パーティー、ゲームと盛りだくさんな３時間でありました。
参加して下さった方々、ありがとうございました。
今後も様々なイベントを計画しておりますので、是非ご参加ください！

ちなみに今週水曜日（９月１２日）、シラキュース大学の全サークル／部活が集まる Involvement Fair が開催されます。
学生時代は人生のほんの数年でしかありません。是非、他の部活とかと交流を深めてみてください。
JSAも出展しておりますので、立ち寄ってみてください。
無料のアイスが手に入るかも・・・？

話は飛びますが、ここ数日、急に気温が下がりましたね。
食欲の秋がやって参りました！
季節の変わり目にご注意下さい。
９月後半から、学生であれば Health Center で無料でインフルエンザ注射できますよ。


それでは皆さん、ごきげんよう。

９月２８日に何かが起こる！？

Giant Crane Building

Today we did a final count of the number of cranes that we have created so far and we found that we had finished all 1000! Thank you all for all your help. 

Now we're in the process of creating a giant crane that will be on display on the field next to Schine and in front of the Hall of Languages during the week of March 19th-23rd. We're making this crane in remembrance of the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami that occurred in Japan. Today we finished taping multiple sheets of paper together and this weekend we'll be meeting to fold this giant crane.

We have a few events prepared for this month such as the lighting up of the Hall of Languages in red and white during the week of March 19th - 23rd. We'll also have an event on March 23rd with onigiris where we'll present the finished crane flag. This flag will be placed on display in Bird Library and at the end of the semester, it will go to the Consulate General of Japan in New York City.

Again, thank you guys for all your help!

A ton of paper cranes!

We are very happy to announce that we have made almost 500 paper cranes!! Thank you to all who came to make a ton of paper cranes for Japan tonight!!!

If you want to make some paper cranes for Japan but couldn't come tonight, please let us know!! You want to make more!?!? Please let us know too!!

I've been designing crane art and finally figured out a best way to put all paper cranes together to make a Japanese flag:) Zeo, thanks a lot for helping my design! These paper cranes will be an awesome crane art on March 23.Please join our memorial ceremony for the Great East Japan Earthquake.

We are also planning to light up the Hall of Languages with Japanese flag's color, white and red. Our president Midori is working on it very hard and tries to get a permission from the University. We are really hoping that the Hall of Languages will light up in white/red for 3.11 memorial like the Empire State Building did so for Japan's Disaster Relief last year.

Please let us know if you have any suggestions, comments, thoughts, and etc. for our 3.11 project!

Have a nice weekend!

Happy super belated new year and happy belated valentine ’s day!

Because I haven’t been on here since..when? and this new Blogger's layout looks so confusing. Why all technical things need to be kept updated? In any case, how have you been? I know it's too late to say welcome back to Syracuse since it's almost March! You remember last year all grounds were covered with a thick layer of snow and what's going on this year? So warm! No snow-boots! No gloves! but don't you sometimes miss severe weather? jk


Anyway, we're going to host a paper crane event this Friday! :) Look at this nice flier made by our great PR person! :) 

 

We'll also announce our follow-up events in March so come join us! ;) In March, you'll see something so artistic on campus!! :) In so doing, JSA officers    are putting so much effort to this 3.11 project. But we can't make this event more attractive without your support. So come see us this Friday!!! You'll enjoy making cranes as if you were a child at elementary school. You'll also get free crackers (arare), tea and a coupon! 

We all are looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Friday!!

Midori
