Hey Everyone!
Our flight leaves Dublin at 6:25am 4th July, The plan is to meet up at 4am
at the entrance to the airport. I will have your tickets printed and will
hand them out then. When we arrive in Stansted we will all buy return
tickets for the bus into London (This is not paid for and could be anywhere
from 15-25£).
After that you can go as you like for the rest of Friday. On Saturday
morning we will head to the expo. The early entry allows us in from 11am.
Once each of you have gained entry to the con you can wander off and do
your own thing if you wish. On Monday morning we will be getting up at 4am
to try and get the 5:10am bus back to Stansted. The return flight leaves at
8:05am and we should be back in Dublin by 9:30am. So apparently sleep is
for the weak during this trip.
*CARRY ON LUGGAGE ONLY!! *since this saves time and having to calculate how
much weight your luggage needs to be before going.
Checklist: You will need: Valid in date passport (Ryanair requires it)
Money: Allow up to 50£ for bus and underground just to be safe the total
travel came to around 45£ last year. You will need money for food and if
you wish to buy anything. Clothes,Toiletries etc. remember you can't carry
liquids more than 100ml and they must be in a clear plastic bag. Towels:
can be rented from the hostel if wanted so you don't need to bring one with
you. See you all on the 4th!

100% Done.
*--Anime Screenings--*
Due to having our AGM this week we are only going to be screening one
anime, but it's a film.
Screenings will be *6pm - 10pm (18:00 - 22:00)* this *Thursday in C115.*
Before Pizza steps down from committee and a new food run's for the
position of Pizza, we will celebrate Pizza's hard work this year by eating
it.
The film we are watching with our AGM is:
[image: Inline images 1]
This is a very enjoyable and excellent movie, so I advise you to not only
come for your passion of the electoral process and food but also for this
wonderful movie.
You can see from the image what the anime is but for our more illiterate
members, it's Wolf Children, and I applaud you for sticking with us so long
despite the anime all having subtitles.
*--AGM--*
Here it is, it's been a fierce few weeks of campaigning, I think I over
heard someone they were actually running for a position. Damn they are
pulling out all the stops this year..
The AGM starts at *6pm. This Thursday in C115.*
Just a reminder that if you are interesting in running for committee, the
positions you can run for are:
*Chairperson, **Secretary , **Treasurer, **Public Relations Officer, *
*Librarian, **Events Officer, **Showings Officer ,**Ordinary Member.*
"Wait" I hear you cry, "If a new committee is being elected, does that mean
I won't be able to enjoy sweet emails from you on a weekly basis?!"
Yes that's exactly what it means. The thought leaves you exasperated and
you worry for the future of anime emails. A tear rolls down your cheek.
Damn, pull it together dude.
Thanks & Goodbye,
Peter Hand

See You Space Secretary
*--Animation Screenings--*

>From left to right they are:
1)* Ookiku Furibatte*
2) *Kyousougiga*
3) *Dangan Ronpa*
*--AGM--*
I'm only reminding you cause I have to, it's not that I like you or
anything and it's a reminder that AMS want's you. That's right, *you,*to
run for a position for next year's committee. It visited me in a dream and
asked me itself to write this personalised email for you,* -insert name of
email receiver here-* so you will run for -*position you are must
interested in running for here*-.
Bet you feel special now, w-well you're not!
As a reminder the positions available to run for and poor descriptions of
them are:
*Chairperson: **Do you love being the big man, the top dog, the head
honcho, then this is the position for you especially if you want to be in
charge of nerds.*
*Secretary:* *Do you dream of being the person who writes emails to tell
people what japanese cartoon they can watch this week at a building for
education, and to take minutes of meetings of the people who pick these
cartoons, do you aspire to be like this loser, well that's pretty sad. But
this is the job for you.*
*Treasurer: **Is all you want in life is being in charge of money you can't
spend and feeling stressed? Don't you want to be even more stressed with
the added money of a convention to be in charge of as well. Don't you want
to be in charge of grant apps and really the most important position on the
society? Well you brave soul, this is the position for you.*
*Public Relations Officer: **Do you love relationships? And do you love
having relationships with the public, well listen close ya big slut this
position is made for you. You'll also be in charge of making radical
posters that when you see all you can think is "cowabunga i gotta go watch
me some Anime with strangers".*
*Librarian: **Do you find yourself often sitting amongst others wearing
glasses and your hair tied up. When suddenly when you whip the glasses off
and let your hair down you become the hottest person in the room? Get some
books and you may just be the librarian. We got manga they're like books.
They got paper and words.*
*Events Officer: **When you're sitting on your rocking chair watching the
sunset do you sigh wistfully, "boy howdy, I sure wish DCU's Anime & Manga
Society would have more events so that I could socialise with all my
favourite guys and gals, yeehaw". Well why don't you run for this position
and organise them yourself you goddamn lazy cowboy.*
*Showings Officer: **What's that, nobody will watch your favourite anime?
Well it's probably cause they think it's just not that good. Well why don't
you confirm their suspicions and run for showings officer and then you get
to decide what we watch. You also have get the anime and screen them.*
*Ordinary Member: **Normal Type. Vanilla flavoured. *
If you are interested in running for any of these positions so you can be
more involved with the society*,the AGM is next week*, so *nominate
yourself by emailing us for the position you are interested in*.
