Clubbing

Going Clubbing is one of these things in life that someone my age should experience and should learn to understand. Since coming to uni last september I have become more used to going to clubs with friends and on society socials. It has taken a while to get used to club ettiquette and even still I sometimes baffelled by what happends.

at this time of year most people have started to go home and being in a university town means that that clubs are starting to get a lot quieter. On one hand this is good because it is less crowded and allows you more space to move (this is especially good on the dance floor). However on the other hand it means less people to hang around with if you loose people, which in big clubs such as home in lincoln can happen often. I look forward to september when I am back with all my friends

Tonight however I found myself in that awkward situation when everyone else in the group were dancing in couples therfore efffectivly making me the fifth wheel. It is a situation I have only found myself in twice so I was still unsure how to react, fortunatly however I was lucky enough to find some other people to hang around with for a while. Also in clubs the dancefloor is like an fluid structure, ever changing as people enter and leave the dance space. This means that people have to constantly change direction when trying to navigate through this rapidly changing social minefield. I often found myself in the way of people coming on and off the dancefloor which and it was difficult to know where to move and wherever I ended up I always seemed to be in the way of someone. Of course some people were nice about it when I was in the way or to close to someone but other people were less considerate of those around them. I should clarify not in an overly nasty way but it was definatly unnessecary to behave in that manner. Dancefloors are often busy and as long as people realise this and make allowances for this everything should be fine

Just for now I will leave you with this, for every bad experience I have had in clubs there has always been twice as many good ones and going with the right people can make all the difference
