is anyone in KASA?
i've heard so many fun things about KASA at UC San Diego
by some of the oppas and unni's i know.
& i was wondering if anyone is in KASA at UC Irvine.

[f_r_E_a_K]

There are really one of those ? Wow, my head's been stuck in the ditch for so long..
Is there a C A S A ? You know, for the Chinese peeps...
There's probably a F A S A for the Filipinos. ehehe

[redranger]

I'm not in KASA but a lotttt of my friends are in UCI's. They love it, especially the dance-off they have at the beginning of the year. It's a good experience (:

[erure]

I go to UCSD and I heard about KASA as well but I heard that all they do is party and get drunk... It's probably not entirely true but that's what I heard -.-a

[jixji]

I'm in KASA, but.. not the one in UCSD. T_T Mine is all the way on the East coast. O_o

Anyway.. yeah.. the KASA I go to used to be all about drinking and partying, but they've changed recently, so now they do cultural stuff too. ^^

That's what I heard too. I'm at UCI, and someone once told me that a "nickname" for them is like... Korean Association of Smoking and Alcohol... or something like that haha...

[xWindwalkerx]

Uh, thats pretty much a majority of what they do lol. Though, they do other stuff, like as mentioned, KASA Danceoff.

yeah cuz i heard there's drinking too.
well the one at ucsd. ionno about uci.

[josebiwasabi]

same reason why i didn't join the KSA here at USC... it's just a social club for drinking/smoking.

This is creepy. I'm in KASA at UCI.

It's Korean Alcoholics and Smokers Anonymous

If you think that's all KASA is, that's fine; but if you never come out then you'll never realize that it's a lot more than that. People I made friends with freshman year through KASA are still my really close friends now. A couple of people I met through KASA are people that I would trust with anything. So it's up to you, but you're missing out if you base your choice on whether or not to go on rumors that you hear from other people.

^ ooh can i ask what they do other than drink? o_O;; i want to join next year but
im still thinking LOL

[tsukemene123]

Well, like people mentioned earlier, we have dance off, which is an amaaaazing experience for freshmen (and for the rest of us older people who stay up til sunrise watching practice, buy the freshmen food, and then cry like babies when they perform at the dance off event, haha).

There's a sports tournament, and a bunch of clubbing events through Chongdae; we go to events for KA day and Saigu... And there are events every two weeks like bowling, barbecues, etc. The best part is the big/little program where nonstaff gets paired up with staff and you form families.

Annnddd of course there's the trip to Mammoth which is SO much fun.


I feel really awkward posting about my real life on Soompi, haha...

sounds fun
do all freshmen have to participate in the danceoff?

[tsukemene123]

Nope, it's completely optional, but they'll try to convince you
It's reallllyyyyy great. All the freshmen become really close with each other and the heads that help out with it. It's a really, really rewarding experience and Irvine's the best at it

[J E W E L Z *]

That's what I heard too. I'm at UCI, and someone once told me that a "nickname" for them is like... Korean Association of Smoking and Alcohol... or something like that haha...

lol i heard the same thing hahaha.
my friends almost joined it. they went to the first meeting & were shocked b/c they were pretty much forced to drink. haha.
sounds fun though

i've actually shown up a couple times and just left because they just all started talking about where to go drinking.

Did you try talking to anybody?

I'm not saying we don't drink, but a lot of people seem to think we're a bunch of dumb kids who just get trashed every day. It's annoying.
