In da Club

Jay and an IITan buddy, Bharat, stopped by my house on Friday afternoon and we decided on heading to Daytona Beach for having some fun on the last day of the Spring Break. I was happy at last that I was going to see some real spring break stuff. We started around 4pm and touched Daytona's border by 5. Bharat wanted to meet his amru friend, Megan, who was studying in Daytona. She asked us to drop by her dorm when we called up. It was for the first time that I was entering a dorm in US, and I was pretty excited.

Megan was waiting outside the dorm. She welcomed us pretty warmly and took us to her room. On nearing her room , I noticed that (unlike other people in the dorm) she had papers pasted all over her door with some useless messages like "Megan lives here" written all over. The interior was more ghastly. The room was just a bit bigger than the hostel room in IITM, but half of it was the kitchen and the other half was the living room (kitchen as soon as u enter? that sucks!). The living room had 2 couch-chairs, a tv and a table with a comp. There were two more wooden chairs and we had to adjust on these chairs. Megan had to crouch and sit down. I took a look at the room: the floor was messy with papers and stuff, walls covered with useless messages and posters and a collage of LOTR movies. It was absolutely horrundous to look at. I was expecting an American girl's room to be a no-mess place, but alas! I might not be a keep-it-all-clean-guy, but I CANNOT live in such a place!

We were talking about her dorm life, her school and her internship. Our conversation was going smoothly until she asked our purpose of visiting Daytona. Bharat frankly replied that we were for the babes and asked her to come out with us (at the same time! how absurd!!!). She (obviously) answered "not for that reason". Bharat tried to ask her out, but she made a lame reason of her sister visiting the place. We left within 5 mins of this conversation, and she didn't even come outside the door to say goodbye. We walked all the way to the car and Bharat was feeling pretty bad that he'd been ditched so badly.

The useless visit also delayed us for the beach activities. By the time we reached the beach the car's engine heated up. So we had to let the car cool down in a parking garage. It was there that we saw the first glimpse of spring break: a car full of BABES in BIKINIS filling gas and bending inside their car. Some of them were damn HOT and were being booed by other guys. Sadly none of us had any beads and cudn't get any flashes :(( But I was pretty happy that we had a good beginning.

After we had parked and left the car it was 6:30pm, and all the beach activities were over. There was no crowd on the beach: everyone had gone out for dinner. So we decided to have some beer by the beach and pass time. Bharat and Jay were putting fundaes to me on grinding in the club. They finally concluded that I shud follow their lead if I wanted to grind and freak out.

We got hold of some beads from Om and reached the club at 10. What happened next will have to remain for the next post.... :)
