Details

I was told by my friend Tiffany that I am too vague in my posts. I need to add "more personal stuff, the juice, some specifics" as she said. So I will try to adopt this new method and give more details to my experiences. I only find this difficult now because I don't really think I have done anything that is detail worthy. But I'll give it a go...

Back home, I do not go out. It just is not something I do. My version of going out is going to get sushi at around 9pm with my best friend. I'm more of a party at home kind of girl (only with my brothers friends, really).  So coming here, I was nervous about that because I didn't know what "going out" consisted of. I don't drink so I really wasn't looking forward to going to a bar and getting drunk, so this caused me some serious anxiety. I thought I was going to feel awkward and out of place. The first night we tried going out, I was still jet lagged and we ended up not finding a place because everything closes so early. Then the next day, Saturday, we had the boat party which was fun, but I went home afterwards. Then, Sunday night, we went to a bar around the corner called the Metropolitan. My friends ordered £8 cocktail pitchers. I ordered a coke, of course, and it was the first night of actually going out, and I must say, I enjoyed it. Now, I want to go out every night. I even told myself that I will get my first beer soon, which is a very big step for me. Its not that I am anti-alcohol, I just never found any interest in it. So, when I have my first beer, I'll be sure to let you all know, with every detail I can remember.
