So I met up with the guys last night for some drinks. One thing led to another and before we knew it, we started at a pub at Boat Quay and ended up at Zouk's wine bar. We didn't enter the club cause it was too late but ended there cause of the one-for-one drinks.
I kind of pitied the poor girl who sat with us at the pub and tried to play games with us. Sorry girl, but you're just not our type and we're fine on our own. And so she left after a short while with the excuse that she was needed else where.
Then my dear friend seemed to have lost his senses after we finished a bottle at the pub. Cause over at wine bar, he came back with 2 jugs of the disgusting jin tonic, 6 Jager bombs and 6 tequila shots. Good grief, I couldn't believe my eyes when I realized that I had to drink all of that with just only 4 of us. Then again, its one-for-one so why not? And before we left, a flaming drink for us all.
So the night turned to out to be a learning experience for me. Something like waddling in the kiddy pool before you take the big plunge. Learnt and revived some drinking games at the pub and observed what the local clubbing scene was like -albeit from the outside.
Then out of the blue, I realized a girl eying me. We made eye contact a few times and I must admit with the lights and alcohol, every girl looks fine - which I believe is what keeps people going back. Well, eye contact was all that was done. After all I'm still on my training wheels, didn't know what I should do. But I guess in time, I'll master the trade and perhaps be more active in the nocturnal social scene.
The last time I drank that much? Nearly 5 years ago and it wasn't even close to what we had last night.
Went home only around 2am and knocked out immediately. But sadly, even with all that alcohol coursing through my body, I managed to sleep only for 6 hours.
Looking back, I really appreciate that my bros really went all the way out to make sure I was not only comfortable but also having fun. I definitely could see myself back there, but certainly not every week.
I still love my body way more than to do that shit every week just to make myself feel better. Or worse the day after.
Life goes on...
PS: Thanks guys. Really appreciate the night out.
