Throwback 

December 25, 2018

Mitch: Cha may plano ka maya?

Cha: Wala naman. Sa bahay lang

Mitch: tara Moodz tayo

(Moodz is a bar or club here na pinakatrip ko. Why? kasi may sayawan. Iyon lang naman ang habol. And no, I don't meet people and dance with everyone. I can dance with my friends but not to strangers. And ako iyong tipong walang upuan kung sumayaw cause I'm enjoying the moment. Si cha, go naman iyan lagi basta walang jowa. Madalang iyan sumayaw pero go pa rin.)

Cha: Sige. Doon na din tayo kumain.

Mitch: busog pa ko pero sige.

Cha: May food pa pala ako dito. Sa moodz na lang

Mitch: sige pga 1130 tayo alis. party starts at 12 naman.

Cha: sige call ka na lang.

Mitch: Ok ok.

Syempre inaya ko din si Rey. Madali pa syang kausap ng mga panahong to.

Mitch: Rey tara, moodz maya

Rey: moodz ka na naman. wala naman gagawin doon

Mitch: eh di sumayaw ka, aba. aarte pa. sama na. sama din sina cha

Rey: hala. tinatamad ado.

Mitch: (dipit ako sa kanya tapos hila hila isa niyang braso)

dali na. para masaya. dami tayo

Rey: ayaw ko nga.

Mitch: (hila hila ko pa rin. mas malakas para feel)

dali na. dali na. dali na. dali na.

Rey: hay naku. oo na. (with taas ng mata)

Mitch: woohoo. maya ah.

*****

I don't know kung bakit malimit sa mga ganitong place past 12 pa dumadami ang tao. Kahit siguro 9pm pa lang mawawalwal na ko sa dance floor, pero mahiyain ako kaya mag iintay pa din ako ng mga mauuna. Mahirap na. Di naman kagalingan tapos mag isa ako doon, maganda na iyong madaming distractions.

Hmmm... correction muna sa may bahid ng dumi mong isip. I'm not a party goer. I'm really an introvert and even though I like bars and clubs so much, is it because I found it as a sweet escape in this bitter-sweet-phase of my life. And nope, dito ko lang naranasan sa UAE ang magbar at club at the age of 27. O di ba. last year lang. And ever since, hindi ako friendly sa mga tao sa loob cause most of the guys and let's say girls as well, most of them were just looking for a pass-time, easy hook-ups, one night stands, flings, etc. I'm not saying all, kasi may ilan din namang like us na just enjoying our youth, staying young, wild, and free.

So, I like bars and clubs because... the music is so deafening that you can't even hear your own thoughts. The ambiance is so dark, sometimes serene, that there is even no space for worry and stress. The place is so crowded that you only options to choose from: sit and watch or stand and dance. Either, no one will care as long as you're having a drink. 

From what I can remember, may iba kaming kasama noon, hindi ko sure kung si Cheene, Rona, Feb ba pero Vinz pero madami kami noon. Si Ranz, di pa kami close noong panahong to, ni hindi nga nagpapansinan at magkakausap lang pag related sa work.  The usual, nakaupo kami sa malimit naming spot. ang set-up kasi is dj (with rest room sa magkabilang side niya, left sa girl and right sa boys) then dancefloor tapos may nakasemi circle na long sofa sort-of, then puro table na sa likod, net then iyong bar, then last na iyong hall way at entrance/exit. Andoon kami lagi sa 2nd table sa likod ng semi-circle, clean and safe sa mga taong padaan-daan mamaya pag nagstart na iyong sayawan.
