Pride "sittning"
The 28e April, the International Business School arranges a "sittning".
"Sittning" means, sort of, a 'get together' for all the students, food and drinks are provided. Of course there will be music and different spex! And after a massive party on Akademin!! :D
The theme of this "sittning" is PRIDE and and in this case it doesn't mean "pride"... For those of you who do not know it, there's a Pride festival organized in Stockholm each year. Stockholm Pride is a gay pride festival held yearly in Stockholm. Since the start in 1998, Stockholm Pride has grown to be one of Stockholm's largest annual festivals, as well as the largest Pride celebration in Scandinavia. Each year Stockholm Pride attracts visitors from both Sweden and the rest of the world. The festival is held in the end of July/beginning of August.
This "sittning" is for once entirely held in English so it would be really fun if you wanted to go!
Tickets cost 140Kr and that includes food and two beers or ciders.
You can buy tickets at the entrance on the international business school between 12-13.
The tickets have already been released so be sure to buy as soon as possible if you want to go!

waffle day
Today, the 25th of March, we're celebrating something called "Våffeldagen" (Waffle day) here in Sweden.
Back in the day this was a Christian holiday dedicated to Our Lady of the Virgin Mary. Lady Day has been reshaped in popular speech to "våffeldagen" (waffle day), which led to the tradition of eating waffles on this day. "Våffeldagen" is therefore still celebrated on March 25, despite the Church's holiday moved to a Sunday. This is a tradition that has continued since the 1600s! For four hundred years it has become something like a national dish. And nowadays you can eat waffles any day you like, not just on "våffeldagen". The very word "våffla" comes from a German word for wax - or honeycomb. This because waffles look similar to bee combs.
Here is a couple of recipes for waffles so you can make swedish specialty on your own;
Recipe for phrase waffles:
Serves 4
4 dl cream
4 dl wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
50 grams melted butter
2 dl of cold water or mineral water
1 / 4 teaspoon salt
Pre-heat the waffle iron. Stir the baking powder and salt into the flour and the flour into the water. Whip the cream and fold into hard flour and water mixture and cooled melted butter. Save a bit of butter to lubricate the hinge with the first few times. Add about 1 dl of butter into the iron at a time. Bake 2-3 minutes. Upload waffles on the grill itself, or serve them directly at any time.
Recipe for waffles with eggs:
2 eggs
1 hg melted margarine
4 dl milk
4.5 dl flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
First you mix the flour and baking powder. Whisk everything together and then let stand about 30 minutes before baking.
