clubbing, oh my god!

I finally went out to a club here. I danced furiously until about 3 AM. This place is crazy, and wasn't nearly as expensive and "not-actually-mind-kind-of-place,-sorry" as I thought it would be. Here's what happened: Some friends met me on a corner after my dinner and we went in a taxi to the club. The cab had a video screen and when we told the driver where to take us, he got excited and put in a DVD which played Yeah! and cranked up the system. Then we got there, and went straight to the front of the line. Within 5 minutes we were in, and I had to pay about 150 pesos. Women, on the other hand, about 60. This seemed like a whole hell of a lot, but then when we get upstairs I learn that it includes open bar service. And I mean, OPEN bar. Like, they will give you a fucking bottle of vodka and a bottle of cola, and/or mineral water if you ask. It was really busy, but one could acquire speedy service by just putting 5 pesos in a cup while the bartenders were looking. Not too bad.

Anyways, it was like a big and crowded party. Like, in an actual club setting. Weird, for me. They must have about a zillion dollar air conditioning system, because even though the place was packed it stayed pretty cool. I danced with friends, and then headed home when we started breaking a sweat, and watched about half an episode of Law and Order.

I would probably even go back. I didn't think I would enjoy myself as much as I did.
