Drinking in Bangkok.

Today's topic is: getting totally drunk in Bangkok. I thought I would try this out of 100% scientific research experimentation purely so others can benefit from my experience and wisdom. Okay, and also because you can't go to Bangkok without partying it up at least one night. It went well if you consider that I succeeded in my goal, which was to get drunk and go to a club full of cute Thai girls and dance with at least a few. However that was about the only thing that was successful. I basically was just along for the ride the entire night, I'd already had a few beers at my hostel before going to the club (a place called Gulliver's Travels), mostly because I figured it'd be a hell of a lot cheaper there, which ended up being spot on. Dalin had left earlier that night that go find his own nighttime excitement at another part of town.
I got to the club sometime after midnight and immediately got a beer and started to dance on the practically non-existent dance floor for about 10 seconds by myself before I wasn't dancing by myself anymore, and since she was pretty cute I was very okay with this (who wouldn't be), we danced for about 10 minutes or so then would go our separate ways and I'd go dance with another cute Thai girl. Basically the first hour followed suit, eventually I ended up dancing with a very cute girl who if I'm going to be totally honest I have fairly strong suspicions that she was a working girl, mostly because she seemed very intent on me drinking more and had me buy both of us a few rounds of drinks. By this time I was getting pretty far gone, however I did know what she was doing and had enough of my wits to know she wasn't going to win.
We ended up at another club which was quite nice, unfortunately I was too fucked up to know where the hell I was going so there is little chance of me finding my way there again. Here she ordered a bucket o' beer, which was basically a plastic sand castle type bucket full of beer and a few straws. She kept drinking and required me to drink too, but I was way too smart for her.(or at least it seemed that way at the time), get this, I'd only pretend to drink! Ha Ha! About 3:30 in the morning we ended up in front of my hostel which she couldn't go in because it didn't allow Thais, probably to keep working girls out. I didn't mind, because I wasn't giving her any money and any sex at that point would've been terribly sloppy and unfulfilled.
At this point I'm not sure what happened, I didn't pass out because I managed to get up all 5 floors of stairs and get into bed. Actually, I became coherent 6:00 this morning downstairs on in the lounging area without pants or shoes on (I did still have boxers) and had one of the workers of the hostel telling me that I needed to go or her boss would get mad (man, this is embarrassing to be writing this down afterwords, but I just figured everybody will just be jealous). I made it upstairs again and crashed in my bed again totally confused and a bit worried because I didn't know where my money bag, shoes and shorts were, but I eventually located them at the foot of my bed and fell into a very relieved sleep.
To add to the confusion of the morning I also woke to find that my eyebrow piercing had disappeared during the night (don't worry, $3 fixed that), and I had no clue how. I don't think it was stolen, because out of all the things she could have taken, getting a piercing doesn't seem like the easiest way to go, and I still had everything in my pockets (I made sure to leave anything valuable back in my room) and my watch and the rest of my bracelets and necklaces were all intact as well.
Needless to say, the rest of the day was a dedicated recover day, and I figure that the next time I will drink will be this month's full moon party. Dalin and I will be heading down South to the islands, probably tomorrow morning.

    Oh, be careful the next time a cute lady is dancing with you. She might not be a lady at all. ;)
