I just dug up a half written post from the distant past. This was the post I was going to post about a month ago when school just started. However, I gave up half way and did not touch my blog for about a month. Upon reading it again, I have no idea what the hell I was thinking, but I am going to complete the post anyway.
The following italic text is the completed post from the distant past:
Woah, just like that, I am officially a J2. Tomorrow is an important date. It is when the juniors come. The various CCAs have prepared themselves to pique the interest of as many people as possible. Some do it to have choices, especially for the sports. Some do it to keep the club big and healthy. May I compare Bridge Club to a turtle.
Turtle babies are sad little creatures. They have to be born from the sand, as their parents are to lazy to incubate them or something. As a result, immediately after they are borne, the would have to scramble to the sea before all the seagulls eat them up. Or do whatever seagulls do to baby turtles. The solution? Spam baby turtles. That way, at least a few of them are going to make it through to the sea and live a happy gull free turtle life.
Likewise, Bridge Club has a very high member mortality rate. In order to actually have members to continue the club, we are going to have to own open house so bad that a whole lot of J1s joins the club. Following which, they can slowly leave once they realize that they suck at bridge/ do not like thinking/ like to play floating bridge more/ do not have many girl CCA mates, but will be we in trouble then? No! Because we have a freak load of members!
We do not exactly have a "freak load" of members now, but we do have very promising juniors. Some might say that they have both the theory and skills required for this game. The most important thing that they have is enthusiasm, which no bridge player can do without. The steep learning curve will separate the people really interested in bridge from the rest. Anyway, tomorrow is a really special day. It is the day where Enghan and Yensen teaches the juniors how to bid! I am confident that we are going to have very disciplined bidders in our club.
