Welcome and Introduction thread

Hey one and all, welcome to the new NTUVAS forum! Ain't much to look right now, but we're working on it....I hope.

So here we have a welcome and introduction thread, come go ahead, post here and introduce yourselves.


So anyway, for those who don't know, this is Amos from AnimeWorks here (on that note, let me shill our club website some more: http://ntuanimeworks.wordpress.com/). If you ever see a primeparadigm elsewhere on the net, that's likely to be me as well. I have a thing for alliterative handles. What can I say about myself? I 'm admittedly very much the stereotypical geek you see so often in western media, and as such have quite a few geeky pursuits, including anime, comics, toy collecting, sci fi, etc so on and so forth. I hope to see this forum be a gathering ground for people of shared interests as well, especially among the NTU student population.

That's it for me now.

first thing, nice forum, amos!

okies, i'm chin yi from animeworks. like almost everyone else here, i read manga and watches anime. don't have much restriction on the genres but i do especially love sport-theme series~

yup, tt's abt it for now.

Actually you should be thanking Yee Jian from publicity side for setting up the forum, I'm just helping to kick things off.

Well, finally, this is *the* forum for all VAS members. I remember there was one other forum, but I remembered that the older moderators kinda forget/lost access to the older forum. And now, this is the proper place to discuss and whatnots. Oh, joy! ^__^

Guess who I am (deviantART members know my username, LOL!)

roar. hello. actually i have been using the same nick for almost everything that u can just call me hayate. those who know me will noe me. haha.

my latest craze is nico nico dance, macross frontier songs, bleach and naruto manga (www.onemanga.com) etc. yeah! yoroshiku onegaishimasu. those who surf sgcafe, can find me on sgcafe with similar nick neh. ciao.

why hayate? the only hayate i know tho is e combat butler. hahaha.

congrats on having e forum set up. now we need more participation hahaha.

Hihi everyone, those who r in the club previously will kno who i m, for those who newly joined, roxanne here. =)

Juz like my nick suggest, i love Cloud the best, among all of my gaming chars. Hols juz started on crisis core and recently finish it. haiz, the game is out for more than a yr le, now then finally got the time to play. Bt the graphics is totally awesome, although i kno the ending b4 i played, cant help crying over the sad ending, Looking forward to FFVIII. The trailer is on youtube seems great. Any FF or gaming fan here?? XD

Like all of u here, i watch anime and manga, bt manga stands a smaller percentage. Genre wise, haha, i prefer either humour, or action, best is wif bi-shounen, hehe, coz i m a girl u see.

Looking forward to kno more abt all of u. =P

Hi all, Benjamin here,

Read and watch mostly mainstream stuff like Naruto and Bleach. And some Hitman Reborn and a recent addition Soul Eater.

FFs played : 7,8 ,9(stopped halfway)

I draw. If you have anyone that would like to commission for a drawing of anything, drop me a message.

I like the Full Metal Alchemist, but I haven't seen the manga yet. I heard recently that there was going to be a remake on the anime, with a storyline following the manga.

P.S. Did anyone else cry watching that anime? I know I did.

Cool! The forum actually allowed me to regsiter my name in hiragana~

The only person who will know who i am is Rox aka Cloud0_o. That's super obvious clue to my identity right?

From my nick, it easy to guess that I'm a D.Gray-Man (super) fan Haha..

So yep, I'm prefer shounen animes.. or anything that is associated with horror/supernatural/action..

douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu~

Do I really need to introduce myself? -lol-

*gets ready to be flamed*

Hi every one! I'm totally new to the club and from animeworks Hieu here .

Like Naruto, Bleach, One Piece and any shounen/ action/ supernatural manga but I read any kind of manga if it's good =)).

Hi all, this is ZeroG, still not a member of VAS but it should be fine to be here, isnt it? LOL.
Of coz well duh, im a NTU student. Currently first year.

Right now im still in the see see look look situation. My first semester was a screwed up
(POINT TO NOTE NO. 1, NEVER CRAMP STUDIES IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS B4 EXAM　- AT LEAST NOT IN UNI)

どぞ宜しくお願いします

Hi everyone, another new member here!

My name's Li Hui and I use this username for most things... so maybe one day you might stumble upon my username somewhere and know it's me. But I'm rarely active on online forums and other things nowadays, haha. I think almost nobody here will know me, because every meeting thus far has clashed with my lessons! (I am an unfortunate person who has lesson on Wednesdays, evening to night. ) Nvm, I intend to know you all eventually.

Like Roxanne/Cloud0_o, I'm also an FF gamer. Haven't had time to play much, but I've finished 7 and 12, and started a bit on 8,9 and 10, but I doubt I'll have the chance to finish them. The Crisis Core ending made me cry too, even though I knew what was coming. :/ Sigh.

I like watching anime but then sadly again not much time to do so nowadays. So I definitely haven't been watching anything new.

Interestingly, I chose to join Design subcomm in hope of gaining more skill in design areas. Right now I'm still not very good I feel. So I hope the pros won't mind tolerating my lack of knowledge haha.

Anyway, I hope this forum flourishes! I think it should be the most convenient avenue for us to interact with each other.

Welcome, Draxander and shuupi! Hope to see more of your posts here in the forums! Wait...Should I call you by your real names? Ahaha.

Come to think of it, I have not introduced myself yet, have I? Yup yup. Anyway, this is Alvin. Like Li Hui before me, I usually use this username for pretty much everything. So if you see a "Stifler" floating around somewhere, and that person happens to have a White Len signature and avartar, chances are, said person is me. Ahaha.

Hope to see more people here!^^

Haha it's up to you really. I believe I will respond to both?? Hmm... wonder when activity over here will pick up... xD

btw i'm weiyang. and avengelist is gavin, which i'm naming because he didnt intro himself ahaha.

Are there a lot of seniors here? I'm getting confused... don't really know anyone yet haha. XDD

Dunno. I'm a freshie myself. Don't worry Draxander, you'll get to know us sooner or later. Same goes for myself - I still don't know anyone here. XD

I see. Which 'wing' are you technically from? I feel that we shouldn't be so divided up, actually. And the forum should be more active except I'm not sure why not many people registered and/or are participating here. Haha. My other gripe about the forum is the perpetual emptiness at the Design section, which is where I'm technically from. (I'm a total noob though, I just came here to learn from the pros... maybe absorb some skills through diffusion. And make new friends.)

Introing myselfff.....

Denise here, anime chairperson for 09/10.
Currently studying acc & biz/yr 2.

and yeaa... but the subclubs are rather close i believe though designer is a bit less active than comics and anime i guess o.o... it's just the members and subcommers that are divided. From my understanding, members won't be involved in club activities unless they want to but will be notified and given member privileges for VAS event. Maybe there will be an entire VAS outing (means inclusive of members, subcomm, maincomm) like during the hols? We should propose it! XD

Ah, good, I finally know another person! xD I think previously I only know Amos because I've seen/talked to him before at the welcome tea. Haha nevermind, slowly I'll get to know everyone. =) Business and Accountancy? I seem to know quite a few friends who are from biz and acct too, but yr 1. Popular choice?

Really? Haha perhaps I should classify myself as an 'active member' for the moment. Alot of what you guys are planning seem interesting! Except that I can't make it down personally most of the time. ;_; For instance, my entire recess week is gone because of a leadership camp. I am greatly saddened. -_- The outing's a good idea though. I would go if I could!

yeaa... i think i'll raise this point at the coming main comm meeting. Because I myself am not sure where the line in drawn between subcomm and active member as you nicely put it how much contribution must a subcomm give to be considered "subcomm"...

ore wo dare da to omotte yaru!?


joudan desu yo.

Kun Loong here. forgot to intro myself before making some other posts...
currently in Mechanical engineering yr2.

i'm relatively new in anime... about 3 yrs only... so please guide me along

other interests include astronomy, which is my other club commitment, where i'm a subcomm also. those interested in the night sky can look for me.
i'm also interested in photography, but never got around to doing it as i havent got the budget to afford a DSLR.
also interested in japanese language, but never got myself formally trained. would be glad to know if anyone can teach a bit.

i'm a trekkie and a stargater as well.

hmm... koko de oshimai.

de wa.

@kamikazer: Haha then you are technically my senior. I'm in Mech Eng too, but not yet started on Mech Eng modules. Taking CN Yang modules atm. x_x
