Let's Dance!

Heading out to Queen tonight for a girls night out - quite literally. Queen is Paris' hottest gay club located on les Champs Elysées. It'll be my first time in a gay-club but if it's anything like what I've heard, it should be an entertaining and fun night. I'm heading out now, but I will update when I get home!

Okay so the night didn't turn out exactly as planned. I met Alyia outside Sarah's apartment in the 13th arrondissement for the pre-drink. It was us and two more, Shauned and Veronika, who I had the pleasure of meeting last night. Shauned is a Welsh girl here doing a marketing internship for the semester and attends university in Newcastle with many of my friends from Hong Kong; Veronika is a Russian girl in Paris doing her practicum in the surgery ward at one of Paris' hospitals. She is also Sarah's roommate. We opened a few bottles of wine, put on some old school pop (when I say old school, I mean high school days), and got ready together before heading out. We were about two hours late meeting Phillipe and Guillaume at l'Arc de Triomphe. In my head I was going a little crazy due to my punctual nature, but the other girls seemed to just laugh it off so I went with it.  The boys weren't too upset - in fact, I doubt they even realized we were late in their state :)

Unfortunately we never ended up making it to Queen. I guess I'll have to save that experience for another time.
