Good day dear reader, and once again welcome to the WegWijzer. This week is the week of the Christian holidays All Saints and All Souls. That means we remember those who died (not all of them of course, that would require more than two days) and maybe even pay a visit to the graveyard. Coincidentally, this is also the week of Halloween. That means among other things that this WegWijzer will be about pumpkins, because when who thinks about Halloween, thinks about pumpkins. For those who are in a total state of confusion right now: the pumpkin is a crop originating from Central- and South-America, and is just like the carrot characterized by its orange colour which is derived from the large quantities of beta carotene. Monday, there are no activities planned. So you can spend some time carving faces in pumpkins, a tradition stemming from the celebration of harvest season in the US (so not copied from the Mexican Dia de los muertos).

Last year we supported the Run For Specials team, this year NFK makes a comeback together with all the Letterenkringen, Katechetika and the Pedagogische Kring, together called the ‘Underdogs’! Until 8pm on Wednesday, we will try to run as many laps as we can, so whether it is to run, cheer or enjoy the delicious food, make sure to come to the University Sports Centre and join the biggest student sports event in Leuven! (for a map: www.24urenloop.be). Because of the 24 hour run, there will be no fakbar, so no excuses not to come and strengthen our team! Thursday we organise our “Weltschmerz” activity for all who feel exhausted because of the 24 hour run and feel like watching movies all day. Well that’s exactly what we’re going to do! From 9am to 10pm in the Lounge of the HIW, […]
