Exam Wishes

I know a lot of people start their exans today, and will be having papers right up to the end of the month. Just want to wish everyone the very best in all their endeavours!

Good luck! And remember to always take a break, don't push yourselves to the edge, always get good sleep and rest, and eat well!

Hello!

Sorry for not posting up for some time - it has been a busy week with revision, last minute classes and upcoming exams. Hope everyone is getting by with all that! We had a lovely picnic last Sunday and we'd like to thank all who came, brought food, ate food and had a lovely time. If anyone has any pictures, please send them on to us! :)

There is a Gay-Cure Conference happening in London today! The society is against the forceful treatment of homosexulaity but on this particular conference, am sure a lot of people have something to say. This is the FaceBook Event calling for a demonstration, if anyone would like to participate - http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=559790124&ref=profile#/event.php?eid=71287658602&ref=share

And BBC has reported it too if you would like to have a read: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8015711.stm

All the best with your exams and revision. Get plenty of sleep and enough sustenance! Good luck, our beautiful friends.

Greetings and Welcome!

Dear friends and family, 

Welcome to our new blog - a place for you to read up on what we have to say about our lovely community at SOAS, and indeed in the wider world (and it's a more colourful alternative to Facebook!). 

We'll shout out about anything - be it the latest films/books that may interest you, some activities that will be coming up (don't forget to have a look-see at our calender), or maybe even something you would like to share with us (contact us via our email: soasgblt@googlemail.com). 

You'll be hearing from us from time to time and we hope to hear from you soon too! 

Have a wonderful week and all the best, 

Row (Co-President)
