seng wai: SUMMERBALL 2008

Leeds Uni organized a summerball last Friday.. It was held in Lotherthon Hall which is about 20 mins drive from Leeds City Centre... This summerball was a 12 hour event which starts from 6pm and ends at 6am in the morning... Was an outdoor event with 7 arenas for u to choose from depending on the choice of music one prefer... It was more like a huge clubbing area instead of a Ball... Liquors and cigarettes are sold everywhere... A bottle of wine cost 11 pounds... a little overpriced for it and it sucked... damn i hate wines...The ball was quite huge with the attendance of more than 9000 people since it's a combination of Leeds Uni and Leeds Metropolitan...I reached there around 7pm and left around 1am....

It was supposed to be a black tie event but since none of us have got black tie and couldn't be bothered about it... we just wore any available tie that we could find in our cupboard.. lol.. It was pretty cool since it was the first time, the whole gang wore suit for an event.. Girls looking pretty in their dresses and guys are looking smart in their suit...

There was also performance by this former SUGABABES member, Mutya Buena, unfortunately I did not get to watch her performance cause some of my friends wanted to go back already.. well, the performance wasn't suppose to start till 2am...There were also some DJ's and some bands performing in different arena.. Theere was also a free fun-fair where u get to ride all the rides for free.. But the queue was super long..

There was also an air brush tattoo shop, where all of us got ourselves a tattoo each.. lol.. just for the fun of it... most of us got it at the back of our neck while some of them got it in front at the sides... Basically, there wasn't much for us to do there.. so we head into oen of the arenas where some of them started dancing... and some of us just explored into the different arenas available.. There was this arena that plays country music.. lol...

Before the clock strikes 12, there were already a lot of drunkards walking around.. And the toilet was outdoor, u can see ppl peeing everywhere.. the allocated space for toilet are rather disgusting... i do not wish to continue about tat place... loll...
Overall, it was quite a nice experience since it was my first time attending a ball in the UK...

Here are some pictures that I took that night...
