I'd like to introduce International Friendship Connection(IFC). I think almost every returning student knows about this. But just some of them went to this program last semester. I think it is really good and easy chance for making American friends.(they give you the chance and place, you just need to say "Hello" to them first.) IFC has meeting every Thursday and each day has different topic.(And free snack!!) And It also has some off-campus activities.
| date | activities |
| 1st | Febuary 2nd | Ice skating at the National Gallery in dc |
| 2nd | March 10th | Washington Wizards vs. NY Knicks |
| 3rd | April 5th | Easter Pageant |
| 4th | April 14th | National Cherry Blossom Festival/parade |
| 5th | May 5th | End of the Year Party! |
| PS | - | If you want to go this activities,actually |
| - | you don't have to go to IFC, just tell your friends who |
| - | go there often. Then he can reserve your seat. |

For those who are interested in American movies, which are certainly one of the best movies in the world, let me inform you that you have a Cinema at Johnson Center. In fact, this week there will be one of the best films of 2006 which is "The Departed" (Leonardo Dicaprio, Jack Nicholson, Matt Damon...). SHOWINGS on Thursday February 8 at 6 p.m and 9 p.m. and on Saturday February 10 at 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. FREE FOR MASON STUDENTS WITH ID, GENERAL PUBLIC $3. I hope you will enjoy your time, Yann Ketchanga.
I went to see "The Departed" and I can assure you I had a great wonderful time. "The Departed" is an amazing movie, the scene is excellent and you can admire the actors play: Leonardo Dicaprio (he also plays in "Titanic"), Matt Damon (he also plays in "Ocean's Eleven"), and the famous Jack Nicholson. For those who liked movies like "The Godfather" and "Scarface," "The Departed" is the same type of movie. To conclude, the only advice I can give you is: RENT IT!!!
Good recommendation, Yann! "The Departed" just won an Oscar for best movie.
