Tietoa Anglicasta suomeksi & yhteystiedot
It's a new year and a new term, so remember to check all your courses whether they
need pre-registration or if it's just a walk-in course. Also, if you feel lost, feel
free to contact your old tutors, the board of Anglica or your teachers!
The board has now agreed on the time for the weekly board meetings, and that time
is on Tuesdays at 18, in the usual place, H2 of Juslenia. All members of Anglica
are welcome to join the meetings, share their thoughts and give us ideas for
new events or the such.
So yeaaaaah, scroll down for LOADS of information!
Have a band? Wanna play? BANDNIGHT IS THE SOLUTION.
We're having the traditional, annual ANGLICA's BANDNIGHT at Klubi
on 14.3., but we're STILL ONE BAND SHORT!
So here is where you come into play, member of Anglica. If
you happen to be in a band or know some Anglican who plays in a band,
ask them if they could play that night and inform us!
Genre does not matter - we're offering your bands a chance to play on a real
stage instead of garages and basements. So the point is just to have
Anglica's bands to share their music with the rest of us and have a fun
night at Klubi.
To all you music types then: get your acts together and start rehearsing and
planning a setlist for the legendary BANDNIGHT!
In recent news: Fundraising for Anglica's big 55th birthday has lead
to the inception of ANGLICA SWEATS. A preview image of them is on the right,
click it to enlarge it. So they are navy blue (as to match your overalls!) and
the hoodie as well as the pants have a snazzy, stylized Anglica logo on them,
inspired by Anglo-American universities. The hoodie will cost you 35 euros and
the pants 25 euros but you can get them both as a set for a special price of 55
euros!
Do keep in mind they are limited for the time being and all the proceeds go
directly into funding the Big 55th.
Without any further ado, SIGN UP HERE !!!
And one last thing about them, please pay for the sweats by 9.3. to Anglica's
account (the number is on the left)!!
Sizing help: Hoodies and sweatpants!
So the time has finally come, and you've all been waiting for this - yes, it is the first bake sale of the year! WHOO!
So as per usual, we bake and we sell so that Anglica can afford to make fun stuff
happen. This year, however, is a bit special. We are currently raising funds for
our big 55 (Anglica's 55th bday partaaay, that is), so all the proceeds from this
bake sale will go directly into our 55-party funds. So if you've been waiting for
that small nudge to bake something, I hope this is the final nudge and prod over
the bake sale cliff into the gorge of bake sale mania! So we need all kinds of stuff,
sweet or salty baked things: pies, cakes, cookies, cupcakes, pastries etc.
So it's about time you click on that doodle link thing and sign up for either a
slot for sales duty or a baked goods slot, or better yet, sign up for both!! So
in case you can't be bothered to look to the left of the page, the bake sale is on
a Tuesday, the 7th of February (same day as the AFC meet, so a good time to warm
up the oven and give the tastebuds a time of their life) from 9.00am till the
afternoon. It's all in the doodle and the FB event.
And as usual, pie makers and cake bakers get rewarded with free entry to Anglica's
Band Night in March! AWESOME!
In a nutshell:
WHAT: Anglica's bake sale
WHEN: Tuesday, 7.2. @ 9am - 3pm (9.00-15.00)
WHERE: Juslenia's lobby
doodle here! aaaand Facebook event here!
HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE.
PS. We have a new coffee maker and a water kettle for Coffee Hours and the bake sale, hooray!

Everybody loves to eat!
Anglica Food Club has decided to meet up at Ikituuri, on the 7th of February.
The theme for the meeting is still up for votes, so go to the FB page
and vote for either African, Middle Eastern, Indian, East/Southeast/South-Asian, South/Middle American/Caribbean or Mediterranean.
After that, you can go right ahead to the sign up doodle.
So when you've done all that, you can go to the FB event and gloat with other AFCers. So
in case you're oblivious to the previous AFC meets, the concept is that you all make
the food together and you all pay an equal amount for it, eat it and have fun!
In a nutshell
WHAT: Anglica Food Club meet
WHEN: 7.2., 18.30
WHERE: Ikituuri
From the FB event:
As a companion to the Movie Nights, Anglica's introducing Comedy Nights. In other
words, we'll be watching some quality comedy, stand-up shows etc.
We'll start off by traveling all the way back to the golden year of 1987, when
Eddie Murphy was still being funny instead of wearing fat suits and playing x
number of roles in a single movie (although, have to admit that he still got it
as an ass). The policy about foods and friends is the same as it is for the movie nights,
i.e. everybody's welcome. See you there! (Link to the FB event can be found on
the left!)
WHEN: February 8th, 6pm (18.00)
WHERE: H1
WHAT: Funny shit (like HAHAHAHAH or LOL funny)
Coffee Hours on Wednesdays in H2 from 12 to 14! 
If you happen to be hanging around Juslenia drop by for a cup of coffee or tea
with your fellow students. Coffee Hours are also a great opportunity to bring up
issues you would like to discuss with board members or other students in general.
Overalls, badges and books are also for sale!
N.B. Those of you who are taking the Contemporary Literatures in English-course,
and have preordered the books for the course, can buy them from Tomi during Coffee Hours.
See you there!
PS. We got a new coffee maker and a new water kettle, so be sure to come and try them out!
