Allison CP - 7

This past Wednesday some of my friends invited me out to Bullwinkle's for ladies night. Naturally since I have a thirsty moose card (which means I have free cover/drink free there whenever I want), I agreed to go. When Joyce and I had gone on our little roadtrip, she had said that she had never been to an American bar in her 8 months of being here. This shocked me. How could she take classes at THE Florida State University and not ever visited the strip or any other notorious bar for that matter?! Thus, I took it upon myself to help immerse her and her roomie Fay into some more American culture. What a great CP, I am haha. Joyce had also remarked during our roadtrip that she wanted to see Fay get drunk because she is usually pretty reserved.

Her wish was my command. On Wednesdays at Bulls, there is only a $3 cover for ladies and it is, of course, all you can drink. Thus, I set to work on telling Joyce and Fay what drinks they should order based on their taste preferences. Joyce likes sweet drinks and Fay likes sour ones. They were both surprised by how many different drinks I knew and called me an alcohol expert. I don't take this to be a compliment. I simply explain that after months of AYCD at Bulls that I've gotten to opportunity to sample many a favorite drink of my friends.

Because it was a Wednesday, the crowd was pretty small. There was no DJ and thus the jukebox was playing. Someone had come in and put in a ton of money on some pretty terrible country songs. Thus, conversation was sparked on different genres of American music. Fay and Joyce didn't seem to mind the country but they didn't particularly care for it either. I was super excited to hear that Joyce downloaded some Maroon 5 music after I instructed her on them as well as several other American bands during our roadtrip.

After having kamikazes, grateful deads, jolly ranchers, etc., Fay was securely tipsy so I offered to drive the girls home since it is on the way to my place and I didn't want them walking at night. Overall it was quite the fun evening!
