callistaI come back from class and guess what my roommate greets me with.
"Want to go to a gay/lesbian bar?"
I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone. I'm not homophobic by any means, but it's not everyday that you get invited to go to a gay bar. As I'm typing this, she and another Singaporean girl are searching the Web for nearby establishments. They're planning to go later tonight, at around 10 pm. I was willing to go at first, but then the bars they're interested in got progressively farther and farther away from the dorm. I'm not homophobic, but I'm not gay either, and I don't feel like walking for an hour just to hang out in a bar (gay or not). They both seem so excited by the prospect, and apparently there are 2 Singaporean guys who're very keen on going as well. Growing up in Singapore must make a person very homosexually deprived.
Hmm.. To go or not to go.. I think going to a gay bar would be an interesting experience, but I really don't want to walk that far. What a dilemma: homosexuals vs. inertia. Who will win? I'm betting on inertia.
EDIT: They've decided on a bar/club called Woody's and Sailor (don't ask). They made me call the bar and ask for details like dress code, admission fee, and age limit, which is how we found out that the place will be having some sort of contest tonight. The name of the contest? Men's Best Chest Contest. If they were excited before, they're practically bursting at the seams now. The place isn't that far, so I might as well go; I think very few people can claim that they've watched a chest contest even at least once in their lives. If nothing else, it'll make a great blog entry :P
