Hangout 27.2

Hey guys,

Thursday Feb 27th we will be having a general chill hangout in our student's lounge from 3 pm. Come and play a board game, sew some patches on your overalls or just have a chat. It'll be a nice, laid-back get-together where everyone's welcome.

In exam times we might all just need this kind of no worries- attitude to remind us to take it easy every once in a while.

love & peace,

THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT FILM CLUB PRESENTS: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

We are happy to announce that the film club will be screening Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind on Tuesday 4th of Feb at 17.15 in Helikon, Arken. Britannica will be serving snacks for the bargain price of 1 €.

Eternal Sunshine is directed by the wonderful Michel Gondry and is regarded as a quirky classic of the 00's. My personal opinion is that it truly is a gem of coolness, a fantastical portrait of love and the mysteries of the mind. Check out the trailer here.

 

 

See you Tuesday!

Christmas Party

Ho ho ho!

Britannica is once again hosting an annual Christmas party for the whole Eng. Dep.

This year the event will take place in Kramer (Arken M220), Thursday December 12th @ 6 pm onward.

You will be treated to mulled wine, rice porridge, christmas bread loaf, gingerbread cookies, christmas pastries, and a surprise programme or two.

And all this for the measly sum of 3€ (or 5€ if you are not a Britannica member)!

As this year is sort of special for Britannica, we will also be presenting our very own Big Fat Quiz of the Year (although unfortunately we did not get Jimmy Carr to present for us). 

This year we will also be having a Secret Santa. So if you wish, you may bring a small Christmas present (worth a few euros), and in return you will receive a present someone else has brought. 
(If you didn't get it, look up secret santa on the interwebs)

Lasertag

Britannica's second to last event this year is another round of Megazone Lasertag, on Wednesday December 11 @ 5:40 pm - 6:10 pm. 

This event takes place during exam week because we believe that it would be good for all you to come and blow off some steam and let your anxiety pour out of the barrel of a gun (in a controlled environment). 

Afterwards it's usually also customary to go for a drink or two to either celebrate your win or drown your sorrows. 

You can sign up either on Facebook or by emailing britannica (include your name in the mail, and "lasertag" in subject)

NB! Attending is binding! (Also on Facebook)

Price is 7 € for Britannica members and full price (9€) for non-members, please bring that EXACT sum with you to the event. 

Be at Megazone (Eriksgatan 4, Julia House) at 5:30 pm at the latest, and we'll go down to the Zone as a group.
