Symposium at NHH

After an interview with questions about for instance my strength and weaknesses, my way of handeling stress, I (Kathrin) was chosen to be:
A WAITRESS AT THE GREAT NHH SYMPOSIUM !!!
It is the most visited conference in north europe organized by students with more than 400 national and international participants of different parts of the economy.
This needed detailed preparation about the way of serving and how to fold napkins ...

... and just how to have a great time! Because working at Symposium means two days hard work, but before endless occasion to party:

Me, Giovanni (ITA), Benedicte (NOR) and Kirsti (NOR) in the next picture





First day of the Symposium:
I SAW THE PRINCE !!!
Unfortunetly not from this close ;)




My working place for the first day: the coffee-bar



My working place for the second day: Making hundred of liters of coffee in the basement


Finally all the hard work was rewarded with the traditional Toga-Party at the evening of the last day of the Symposium!


Getting properly dressed for the party was not so easy for us 8 exchange students ;)

After a great time in the basement with free wine and a comedy-show, we were prepared to continue in the "aula" and make this party unforgetable (in many ways ;) )

All the time during the Symposium and especially the weeks before, I had a great time getting to know more norwegians, having fun together at all the parties, several lunchs and meetings and to see what students are able to organize and how much they support their school!
