How To Fix Your Attention Span
It’s Tuesday morning. I’m in class. The professor enters and starts talking, and I swear it is interesting, or at least it would be, if not for the colourful full-screen game a guy a few rows down is playing. Meanwhile, the girl in front of me is planning a trip to Vietnam. I would love…
The beauty of shared madness – My experience queuing for Kvalborg tickets
And thus it began. The season of the perhaps highest highs and the lowest lows of the student life season. Students are sat with their backs to the sun-warm stone wall of Lund Cathedral, iced coffee in hand. Exams are piling up and hours under the light of green lamps in the library are long.…
Tenta-licious: When time is worth its weight in food!
A week before my first “tentaperiod” of the year, I realized that I no longer had time to prep my lunches. Instead, I decided to rate some of the lunch options in close proximity to the school. My criteria were that a lunch should be cheap, filling, tasty, and quick. 5 days until the exam.…
Swede Dreams or Nightmares
“Do you know how to lock a door?” my flatmate asked me, just a few days after moving to Lund. What kind of question was that? Of course, I knew how to lock a door! Or so I thought. He insisted I demonstrate it, and so I did – with full confidence. Turns out, I…

The…
Escaping the Christmas purgatory, make your own candles
It’s the 23rd of December, and you still don’t have a single gift. Rushing to the mall, you realize you’re not alone. You’re bounced around in different directions like a billiard ball—a woman with three crying children forces you to the left, while five loudly chatting teenagers push you to the right. You’re nearly run…
The Call of the Wild – 40 Kilometers from EC
A couple of weeks ago I felt the call of the wild. Maybe not completely wild – hard to find unexplored wilderness these days – but I thought I would do my best. The most remote nature accessible within a reasonable bus ride from Lund is the beautiful Söderåsen national park. So follow along on…
The Irony of the Pink Tax
It is really funny. An arbitrary woman heads out the door for the day, sambas tied on her feet, matcha latte in hand, a podcast running in her headphones. She is having a good day, feeling like she’s owning it – little does she know that a familiar mise en scène of companies and institutions,…
