My feet are sore, my legs feel weak, I only slept 3 hours and last night has already become a bad memory.
So yesterday was my first time going to a night club and it wasn’t what I hoped it would be, on the contrary it was what I hoped it wouldn’t be. I was nervous at first since being my first time going there and excited that my parents actually allowed me to go, letting me stay out after midnight for the first time as well. I’m 19yrs old but my parents are over protective so this was something I had to enjoy. I was picked up by my friend at 11:15 pm he was accompanied by a friend of his (a girl), we arrived at the club 11:45 pm, and I left the club 1:45 am, my brother picked me up since my parents only allowed me be out until 2:00 am and my friend wasn’t leaving until 3 or 4 am, so the condition was that my brother would pick me up.
From 11:45 pm -1:45 am I went through several stages of emotion while not able to sit once. I started nervous, then uncomfortable; standing around staring to move a little to the talentless music of reggeaton and there were not that many people at the time we arrived, then I started to feel awkward moving my feet, hips and ass to that of horrible music, afterwards I started to feel nostalgic; wanting to be home listening the music I really enjoy and at that moment Sonata Arctica was dwelling in my brain. There was even one point where I felt embarrassed and that was when they played Salsa for the first and only time, seriously I do not know how to dance that even though I’m Cuban and that’s Cuban music, I was trying to dance it and fail miserably; a total mess with whatever I was doing with my feet. I wouldn’t stop checking the time; I wanted my brother to arrive to get me out of that sweaty, smelly, hot, shithole.
If I had known that they were only going to play reggeaton I wouldn’t had gone. I was lied to, my friend told me they only played house music, party music and some reggeaton but the only party/house music they played was a mix with reggeaton. The place wasn’t as nasty as some others I’ve heard of where the people there are having sex with clothes on (perhaps some actually have sex), but at this club there was still a lot of grinding of males with females.
So here is a list of what I liked, disliked, and highlights of the night;
DISLIKES from that club:
Reggeaton, I used to love it about four years ago before I realize that all the songs have the same beat and all the lyrics are the same mindless sex, money and power bullshit talk; “I want to fuck you tonight, you know you want me I’m better than your man, I have all the money in the world blah blah blah….” And once they ran out of melodies they started to rip-off melodies of old non-reggeaton songs.
How the sluts and guys dress. The sluts; don’t know why they even put clothes on when they don’t leave anything to the imagination.
The guys; they try to dress “preppy” with Hollister and those other brand shirts to look cool and hip and yet they still manage to look cheap.
To be able to sit you need to rent a table beforehand.
LIKES:
…………….
HIGHLIGHTS:
I was actually dancing
A girl stepped on my pinky toe.
My brother arrived at last =)
Ps. Tonight I'll be going to another club with my brother, this one is a gothic club. Hopefully I'll feel more at ease there even though I'll only know my brother and I'm so shy that I'm actually antisocial =( But will see how it goes.
hopeful,
