Polyball
I don't think there is an english translation for it. But let me explain to you why it is named so...
see... Poly = University
Ball = ball lah!

| From Polyball, Zurich |
This year's theme is winter world, so everything in and out of ETH main building was surrounded by snow-capped mountains, ski, ski cable, etc.
Suet chian almost lost her 49 francs (65sgd) worth of entrance ticket, but luckily, she picked it up along the way and we managed to enter ETH before we freeze to death outdoor...
The decor of the main hall. The pink and blue clothes are cut by me and gang! ;)
Then there was performance, live band...
and..
dance.. ballroom dance.. this scene just reminds me how kings like to host parties and people just dance away.. hey, some people really dress up very formally.. you know, those wedding cake-like gowns... sadly, i didn't take any photo of them, its weird to do so!
we walked around the whole building and finally got everyone gathered together....
the culmannstrasse girls who are staying in the same building as me. theres australian, malaysian, singaporean, japanese-swiss, chinese. names are not important in this case, hehe.

other than busy cam-whoring, i was also busy with.........
total damage to liver : 3 white wines, 2 champagne..
that australian is a bad influence man, she made me drink glass after glass.. i don't think she will see this, but just in case, pat, i love you still!
eat! other than eating, she made me eat!
total damage to tummy : 1 ice cream, 1 crepe, 1 curry, 1 glass noodle.
next,
dance! some last minute beginner practise of salsa first....
then i started dancing on actual dance floor!
was quite fun, but i could only kept to simple front back or left right moves :s
the professionals...
so there was live music, dance floor, dining area... not just one, but a few took place in ETH! of course with different music, people dance different things, like waltz, salsa, samba etc.. makes me so enthu about taking up a dance class now!
last but not the least, we found our artwork!
say its artistic, not ugly. :P
