MICHELLE LYMedia Co-ordinator4th year, Computer Science / Science (Microbiology)
What is NSA to you? The place where all my friends are! After regretting not joining any societies in my first year, I took a chance and randomly applied to join the NSA subcommittee the following year. I knew absolutely no one in the society, but now I can definitely say it’s easily the best decision I’ve made for myself. What once was a random society has now become a place where I’ve met tons of awesome people who I’ve made a whole lot of fond memories with. What is your favourite thing about Japan? It’s where Pokémon was born <3 It’s hard to say exactly what I love about Japan. I’ve visited 3 times so far, and I’m still always wanting to go back to visit. There’s just so much to see and do, and I’ve met so many wonderful friends over there. Can’t forget to give a shout-out to the food though, as someone with a sweet tooth Japan is heaven on Earth for desserts. Illustration of our mascot Mofu |
REGAN XUEvents Co-ordinator2nd year, Actuarial studies / Commerce (Information Systems)
What is NSA to you? NSA is a home away from home. Somewhere where I can talk and make friends with similar interests as me. NSA is also a place that I can learn from peers, whether that be the Japanese language, about Japan, or just general things about uni life. What is your favourite thing about Japan? I really enjoy the public transportation system, particularly the high speed rail network, also known as shinkansen. Having such an organised system of travel over long distance is something that is so different to what I'm used to here in Australia, and the logistics of such a system interest me greatly.

HARRY ZHANGCommunications Officer3rd year, Computer Science / Science (Mathematics)
What is NSA to you? NSA was the first place where I made real close friends with new people at university! To me, it is a community of extremely wholesome and friendly group of lowkey weebs that all share the common interest of Japan. The events are a whole lot of fun and everyone enjoys the good vibes 😊, why not come join in? What is your favourite thing about Japan? I think it's gotta be the food. Japan just seems to do something differently about their food. It's so aesthetically pleasing that it can be the defining feature of some anime. Some are so healthy and yummy that I could eat it for the rest of my life if I had to. It's so convenient that you can buy high quality stuff at the convenience store, heck even get hot food from vending machines and it's cheap! Illustration of our mascot Mofu |
SUSAN LINInternational Liaison2nd year, Commerce (International)
What is NSA to you? To me, NSA is a place where I’ve been able to go out of my comfort zone both professionally and socially. As International Liaison, I’ve had the opportunity to maintain our global network and create cultural exchange opportunities for our members. I’ve met some incredibly like-minded people in the team that inspire me. What is your favourite thing about Japan? I am fascinated by other cultures and how different they are to Australia. Japan’s architecture and attractions like Shibuya Skytree is something that I find unique. Illustration of our mascot Mofu |
