So I'm now secretary of Oxford Uni Kendo society. I had my first committee meeting last night, which took forever, and didn't really get a chance to practice Kendo. Aparrantly last year's committee were awful at record-keeping and we've lost a good amount of club armour because people never returned them/felt the deposit they left behind was well worth the kit (it is). This year we plan to be much more organised, starting with a proper database of all the club members. I never realised how much admin stuff and organisation goes into running a club - obvoiusly I know there's a lot of work, but to be in on every single teeny detail is quite a new thing.
Ahaha, so yeah, I already made a great start (irony) on being the secretary. After our initial meeting we decided to extend it a little just so we can sort out things there and then but one of the committee member had already entered the dojo and was starting to practice. I had to go to fetch back him but I made the mistake of going too late because by the time I entered the dojo, everyone was already in armour and I had no idea who was who! It was all rather embarrassing and involved me running around peering through their helmets. Not cool.
I finished watching Lovely Complex. It was a really sweet and endearing story and made me all girly and mushy for a while. Also, from a completely different anime, hot damn Zero (Vampire Knight) is sexy!






My, I'm jealous of your job. Sounds really great - too bad that there was this incident the very day you started, though. :/
