My Extracurriculars at Yale | Freshman Year
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
How's everyone today? We're going to be talking about my extracurricular commitment at Yale, which is one of the main reasons I haven't had the time to do. So here are some of the main things that I've been doing at Yale. One of the first activities that I am a part of his dance works, which is basically this big dance group that has multiple dance choreographers instructors, is a very big group. For my first semester I signed up for one dance. It wasn't too much of a time commitment, but the show was really fun. I will not be able to do it second semester because I have a lot of commitments for plays that I'm doing a deal with. You talk about next up on our part of the first year College council here. We were both voted in, and it's basically like the student council here. Yeah, we organized many events for first years, like a first year formal, the first Olympics of first year barbecue. Like the Sophomore Council and the College Council, and it gets very of red tape, a lot of government kind of involved. I'm also part of this really cool group called the Tech Seal Group. Early on in the year we had, like this kind of interview things application thing, and luckily and gratefully I was able to get into the team. In April, we are basically going to be making a Ted Exhale conference, so that would be very, very fun. In the meantime, we've been doing these small speaking salons where we have speakers come in. Yeah, it's basically Ted talk with feel very fun. Hell, I've done soccer was going to do indoor soccer, but we didn't have indoor soccer this year, which really, really sucks. I did some volleyball, and I'm hoping to do Ben mention Intramural sports are very fun because it's not a huge time commitment, but also very fun because you compete with other residential colleges and there's just so much pride. I was really, really Yeah, I'm a part of the Asian American Cultural Association and also a part of the Indonesian Yell Association and also a part of the question chapter and the first generation low income chapter here. Yale, Honestly, I don't have any official positions here, but I come to events. I helped plan events out, and it's just very chilling, very cool to be a part of people who also share the same identity as you. I was also a vice committee chair for Lyman, the yield model United Nations, which is really fun. We hosted a conference early in January, and my committee was the Civil Rights Committee, and we basically facilitated a model organization simulation with a bunch of high school students, and it just went really, really well. Lastly, the main extracurricular besides YouTube, which I tried to do that I've been doing that deal is the Deal Drum Coalition, which is basically theater at Yale, which is also the Yale Dramatic Association. So this year I will be in four plays, and I've also held up for other plays, like being part of the set crew. I was part of a play called Death, which is really the story. The actor for the play dropped off last minute, so I decided to take a roll, and I only rehearsed like three times before we actually performed. Play was a really deep in a cool place to talking about gun violence and the importance of it and it's just really cool, really awesome experience in a smaller stage. Now, one of the biggest time commitments that yield is the Yale Dramatic Association is basically like the official big, stereotypical cool on a big stage theater here. So I was lucky enough to be the only first year for the yield. He basically treats us the students as professionals because we have every day. There were days where we had, like fight calls and choreography stuff just a lot of things where a lot of hours required very long theatre at very fun because there's so many places that you can audition for. It's also very stressful because there's the audition process and the callback process, and everything can be overwhelming. Peter is also very fun, very is a huge stress reliever for me, and I love it so much. Saw NdeR and Radium Girls, which is the yield Ramat freshman show, which is a show put up only by first years at Yale. Hopefully, and I'll also be a part of a short film here. Acting is very fun, but it takes up a lot of time going off of that. I'll probably go more specific in another video like a home video about Peter, because it is very intense. It is very in depth, and there's so much to cover with. In terms of extracurriculars here at Yale, I've been pretty involved, has been fun. Hopefully next semester, I am not going to be doing for plays in a year.
