I was at the ball!

I was at the ball!

I was invited to the ball on 1st March 2008 at AF-borgen, this old castle used by the Academic Society nowadays in Lund. The ball was organized by Kistianstad Nation (Student Union) and it was called the Snapphanefesten.







Here's the venue


And this is the programme






During the first part of the ball, they had this ceremony where there was a lot of singing and giving out of 'titles' and medals




Here are some guys being knighted


I got a medal as well and was appointed as some kinda maiden or god knows what. Couldn't obviously take a pic of myself when I was being appointed but here's proof!

After the ceremony there was a lot of mingling and then finally it was time for dinner which was a 4 hour event!


Here's my seat and my table



And some other people there. Towards the end of the dinner people were folding their napkins into cat's ears. Don't ask why. Too much schnapps.


The starter was some kinda deer with hjortronsylt (cloudberry jam)


Main course was actually yummy. Chicken and potatoes.


And people bringing out the dessert. Some kinda chocolate parfait with strawberry ice cream and mixed berries.
I'll continue the other stuff in the next post...
