Jan 17  Umai yo~! Yasui yo~!

So I hope everyone had a lot of fun at Show 1. Unfortunately, there is no show this weekend (or next weekend) but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot of fun stuff to do. Check this out:

• Meeting – Monday, January 17 at 6:00pm, Room MC 2035 – This is the third meeting. Not sure exactly what’s on the agenda, but there will probably be a game, and I think June will be repeating her presentation from the show.
• Project Night – Wednesday, January 19 at 6:00pm, Room SLC 2109 – Jeremy is back again for another project night. Same as usual. Bring your projects and your willingness to help others, and be productive for once. Also of note is that Kyle will be shaving his moustache. Since the hair would make a mess of the room, he’ll be going home early to do it, but he is “welcoming” people to follow him to observe this historical moment. There is an open call for suggestions on what he should shave it into.
• Games Night – Friday, January 21 at 4:30pm, Room AL 208 – Card games, board games, video games, etc. If your idea of a Ctrl-A show is staying in the corner playing games, this is the night for you. Even if you aren’t much of a gamer, this is a great event for getting to know people and general socialization.
• Cosplay Tea Party? – Saturday, January 22 at 2:00pm, Amy’s Place – This may or may not actually occur, I have to confirm it. If it does, come and drink tea, work on costumes, play games and um, watch She-Ra. If you need to know how to find the place, I think the easiest way is to send an email to Kyle.
• Sushi Lunch – Sunday, January 23 at 1:00pm, Sushi 99. This is the first of what is likely at least two sushi lunches occurring this term. Sushi 99 is a newer all-you-can-eat restaurant located at 36 Northfield Dr E. Be sure to RSVP to Kyle by noon on Thursday in order to get in the reservation.

And just a few quick reminders of upcoming events that you can sign up for:

Alcina is arranging group admission for Anime North. Check out this thread if you are interested in saving $15. Also, we need more gym leaders!

And don’t forget to sign up for the Chaos and Weiβ Schwarz tournaments happening Show 3 and Show 4. They are still a ways off but you should register in advance so they can plan accordingly. If you don’t have the cards or don’t know how to play, that’s not a problem! There will be plenty of people at games nights and shows that would be willing to teach you, and Will apparently has way too many cards and is willing to lend some out for use at the tourneys. If you have any questions, contact Will or Robo on the forums.

This concludes your briefing on this week in Ctrl-A. You have your mission, now get on with it!
