4. Wearing heels is an absolute no no
Have YOU SEEN the cobbles?
5. Sorting pre drinks is one of the most important tasks
It defines your ball experience from the get-go. Half your class will be having a gaff party, a quarter going for dinner, and the last few will just have cans on the bus.
6. Staying on campus to sneak in is a military operation
