Summer Ball

I’m an SB12 survivor!!

So as Emily anticipated a few days ago, last Saturday thousands of students went to the Essex Summer Ball 2012, where the Students Union organised a huge theme event full of rides, marquees and food stands. It all revolved around a fairytale theme, so we bumped into a little red riding hood, a fire eater and witches. Personal favourite: the Gingerbread house covered with bags of sweets, although it ran out really quickly!

No giant wheel this time, though there were two really dizzying rides and of course, bumper cars!

The Ghost Train was disappointing of course, but you can’t have high expectations with these things! Other highlights:  a silent (headphone) disco again and an ice skating rink, though it seemed too dangerous for me! Also plenty dance floors to switch around whenever you wanted to change the music style!



Best part for me was meeting all the friends I hadn’t seen since before the exam period, of course looking our best with our gorgeous dresses and suits! Luckily the weather wasn’t too bad, so the cold was bearable to stay till 5.30…

Still surprised at all the people who made it till the Survivors’ Picture, hope to be able to spot myself in it when the SU uploads it!
