Meeting - 26th of March

Yesterday meeting was one of the longest and most intensive so far, mainly because it was our last regular meeting in quite a long time and also because we had to set a nice schedule for the CE with Gliwice and Veszprém among other important desicions.

After the meeting we had planned some food, so while most of us where having smaller meetings discussing the trip to Poland respectively Denmark, the remaining two people prepared the food, which we ate together in the kitchen. There we chatted and had fun together until after midnight. A lovely Thursday evening! :)

Official

Thursdays are the days for our weekly meetings and today finally we released this new BEST blogg in the group. From now on you will officially be able to read about our doings and happenings.

Next week 10 people in the group will go on a Cultural Exchange in Gliwice for a week and 7 people will go to Copenhagen during next weekend for the Regional Meeting. So in total 17 Lund BESTies will go travelling on BEST events right before Easter. :)

Of course we will tell you about it on the blog later...

so stay tuned!! :)

Summer course promotion

Just like last week we are now promoting courses in the different buildings at LTH during lunchtime. If you want to join us, or if you have some questions about BEST or how to apply to BEST courses - find us and we will gladly answer your questions. We have already visited Kemicentrum and E-huset, so today you will be able to find us in V-huset and on Friday we will be in  in M-huset.

And don't forget to apply for the courses! You have 50 different events to choose between this summer, and since the only expences for you is the ticket to go there and maximum 30 € (around 350 kr), you have no reason to hesitate. Right?

On our homepage we have gathered some good hints when you are writing your motivation letter, because a good motivation letter increases your chance of getting accepted enormously!

Motivation Weekend

This weekend BEST Lund and BEST Copenhagen met up in a cabin outside the civilization with the goal to learn to know each other a little better and exchange ideas. The Friday evening was set aside for social activities while a tough schedule was planned for Saturday. However, the group did manage to fail the schedule almost immediately, due too oversleeping. But, this was easily fixed by fun games, the years first swim in ¨Dalby Stenbrott¨ and an excellent barbecue in the evening. Now, back again in the civilization we all feel happy but exhausted after a fun weekend. But especially do we look forward too work closer with the BEST group in Copenhagen and all the fun things we already have started to plan together.



Who know's what they are doing!


SOCCER


BEST Lunds dear President, trying to catch the honor for the food. Yes, he looks ridiculous in that hat.

Yes, Love was in the air.

Promotion..

Perhaps you have seen some BEST posters up at LTH during the last weeks, and perhaps you have seen some small leaflets spread over tables and benches in the different buildings.. you see, right now is the time to apply for BEST summer courses!

This week we are therefore trying to promote the courses in the buildings at LTH by handing out leaflets and talking about BEST courses. You might find us there somewhere!

Go apply! :)

WHIP, Thank You Party

To be a BEST member in LBG Lund is not only about work. A few weeks ago, we organized a big party called ¨Wild Huge International Party¨ and this weekend we felt that we needed to treat ourselves. A few BEST members that where unable to attend WHIP decided to cook for the rest of us. After a nice dinner with delicious pork tenderloin, potatoes and ¨kladdkaka¨ the party was on. Some members decided to continue the night at F-huset where the F- and K-sections had a dinner party. We're glad to say that some BEST members stayed until the very end. 

Meeting - 12th of March

Every Thursday we gather at Kårhuset (the Student Union house) for a weekly meeting, and despite the fact that it is exam week at LTH, around 10 BESTies showed up.

Today we talked about our budget, and decided how much we can spend on the Cultural Exchange we are going to have in April/May. We also decided who will be our GA-delegates this year (Patrik and Mia) and elected Ludvig as CE-responsible.

After the meeting we tried to have a small workshop and divided ourselves in two teams, where one sat down by the computers and wrote on an sponsor-application for the summer course and the other team continued the sewing that we started the last week.

The sewing project

The idea of the sewing project is to promote the summer courses to LTH students. The project is to prepare a black blanket with white text and put the blanket on ön Ön (the island Island) in sjön Sjön (the lake Lake). The difficulties however is that the letters are sooo many, that there's only one sewing machine and that there's no motivation to do it, because it is probably just a waste of time. And then we haven't even mentioned the question about:
    - how we will manage to convince someone to swim to the island and put it there! :P

I guess we will see how it goes!

About editing the blog

This blog is meant to be public. It is also meant to be written by BEST Lund, which means that several different people will be able to edit and write the posts on this blog.

To ensure that the text and pictures published are not offensive to anyone, the PR-team in BEST Lund will proof read the posts when they are published. However, we might not always have time to correct it immediately, or we will miss some, so if you want us to remove a text or a photo from the blog – send an email to us at lund(at)bestorg.eu and we will take a look at it.

Have a nice day!
