You ever wonder why we NEVER update the website? Well, the reason for that is we are usually busy with club related activities or other stuff. The website is one of those things that is great to have but is a real pain to keep up. If you have ever had a website or are currently maintaining one then you understand where we are coming from.
So, the reason for this post is to announce to the world that WE ARE STILL HERE!!
Now, the website will be getting a major upgrade within the next month. We will be trying out some net stuff and to see if we can create a new use for the online world.
Thank you for your visit! “Kon-Kon”

“I am very excited that we now have a chapter at MGC,” said Amanda Tripp who coordinated getting the chapter started. Tripp also stated, “I think that we will be able to do a lot of great things at MGC.

We are having a Halloween Party on the October 25th!
So get ready to get your scary faces out from hiding! We are going to need all of your help getting ready for our spook fest! So give us your minds and eyes to get ideas for the party!!!
We are getting ready for the Halloween party! It is only 2 weeks away now. We are celebrating our Halloween party on Saturday, Oct. 25th @ 6pm until 9pm. We are going to turn the OEMC assembly room into a wondrous world of black lights and anime! Please come dressed up in your cosplay or Halloween costume!
Since we are having this party instead of charging admission we would like for everyone to bring some kind of food and/or drink. Remember, the club has no money! We are poor broke children so most of the cost of the club is from money and services donated by a few dedicated people. Food and/or drink is the only thing that you will be required to bring.
We are going to require that you RSVP before the party. We are buying items for each of you and we would like to know how many people to expect. Please let me know if you are bringing any friends or are expecting anyone to come. It is important that you let me know so I can have enough material for everyone so that no one is left out. You can RSVP me by replying to this e-mail or calling/text me at 478-231-1761. Also, please let me know what kind of food/drink you are bringing. (If you have accepted on the Facebook or MySpace event listing then just send me a message about what you are bringing.)
Depending on how many people dress-up in costumes we will have a costume contest. So, please dress in your ghoulish costume or nicest cosplay. The winner will take home a nice prize!

Hey AnEx,
I am happy to announce that the preparations for tomorrow are going great! I’ve been told that we are going to have some visitors at tomorrow’s event which is going to be exciting! If you have a club t-shirt please wear it tomorrow if you can. It will help club spirit to see everyone who has a t-shirt wearing one. If you do not have a t-shirt please let me know and I will give you one tomorrow. We are going to get a group photo of the people who are at the event. The photo will be on the club’s website.
I am excited to see the club pick up speed. I have seen a lot of great people work to make this club great and once again I’m very proud to be an AnEx member. Tomorrow, we will have a brief business meeting. During the business meeting we will vote on having two meetings a month once again. Also, we will talk about having a Halloween party and some other topics.
I have not heard if anyone is bringing food. Please bring some kind of snacks or drinks. The club has plates, cups, etc. so we don’t need any of that.
Here is the final list of things that we need:
Food
Drinks
Wii Remotes x2
A special thanks to people who are bringing stuff. I have a special gift for everyone bringing items for this event.
The event is going to be planned out to run like this. (This is a tentative schedule)

Today I watched a film that I came across by mere chance. The title of this film was The King and the Clown. A Korean film about a group of traveling performers who mocked the ways of the King and his consort. This caused them to get into trouble with the Minister of the King. To save their selves they pleaded to preform before the king and if he laughed their lives would be spared, however, if the king did not laugh they would be killed.
The story developed from there revealing corruption in the king’s court and the jesters way of exposing this corruption. Also, there is within this story a aspect of love between two performers.
If you ever come across this film please watch it. I rate this film 5 stars for its quality, actors, and story line.
Here is a picture of the film’s poster:
