My First Time

It was the summer of 98, and my friends had just graduated high school, and we all decided to take a trip. Where to go we all thought? We were thinking where could we all have fun and not have any age requirements? So Cancun was the place to be, first thing I did when I got off the plane was transfer some money to some pesos. When I tried to get pesos the cashier tried to rip me off, but there was nothing I could do. So I got my pesos and picked up a cervesa. All I knew was how to say was ?Cervas por favor? and apparently that?s all I needed to have a good time. The first night we were there, we went to this place called Bolero, and it was a dark, very lively place. There we meet this girl name Carla. I had two words for her, ?God Damn!? This bar we were at was no ordinary bar, apparently Carla was the feature dancer of the evening. I was thinking to myself, ?Damn damn damn, I am going to get into some trouble when I am down here.? The next day our other friends arrived from the states, and we meet up with some girls, so that?s the last time we saw Carla. We all got together that night at this club called Tequila Rock; it was very trendy. When we walked in all we smelt was smoke and beer, which is not a bad thing because that is a scent of a good time. Well, we were having out fun and my friend?s girlfriend died on us, she passed out from alcohol poisoning and we had to call the local ambulance, but we got some Burger King fries and revived her, so she didn?t have to go to the hospital. Apparently she hadn?t eaten anything on the way down, or all that day. So the fries did the trick. The second day was pretty calm, but of course it was wild by nightfall. During the day we all went to the beach. The beach was very clean and was a nice place to relax. We went riding jet skis out in the ocean, and played around in the sand, we had a good time. After the beach we went back to our rooms and then got ready for a fun filled day. We went to a few shopping centers and what not, then went a little sight seeing it was pretty nice, of course everywhere we go I find a guy selling alcoholic beverages, ?Cervesa por favor?? While we were shopping, we found a statue of a turtle sitting on a toilet taking a dump, it was very interesting, I was considering buying it, but it was really expensive. Who would have thought a statue of a turtle talking a *censored* would have a price of $5,000. Well by then it was nighttime, the sun had gone down, so we went back to the hotel and changed. After that it was good to go for a night of fun. The first club of the night was Daddy Rock, there was a wet t-shirt contest going on, so you know we had to go up in there. We had a few drinks there; well few may be an understatement, but its ok. The second club we hit was Daddy O?s; it was another branch of Daddy Rock, the dancing club portion. Daddy O?s was one of many clubs rated for their laser shows, believe I saw why, it was amazing. The dance floor was enormous, there were roughly 500 people on the floor ?doin their thang?. So we were having our fun there and by this time I was tired of drinking beer, needed a little change. At the time I was not really experienced with liquor, but willing to try. I asked my friend?s girlfriend, ?What is a good mixed drink?? She knows her drinks, so I thought I?d ask her. ?Tom Collins?, she replied. I didn?t ask what it made of or anything, just went to the bar and asked for one. At first I just kind of sipped on it, it was going down pretty smoothly. I drank the whole glass at once, and kept on drinking the same drink all night long. I made some new friends with some guys that were sitting upstairs by the bar, so I was drinking my last glass for the night, but not knowing it. We were just talking and I put my head down, and that is the last thing I remember until I came to around 30 min later. I was still pretty gone, ok ok, I was still really drunk, and somehow I ended up outside sitting on the curb. My friends were trying to get me back to the hotel, but I was to immobile to get on a bus. So they tried to get a cab, 3 cabs turned me down because they were afraid that I would mess up their car. As all of this was going on, my friends told me that 2 hotties came up to me when sitting on the curb and whispered something in my ear, and I sure as heck didn?t remember it. Finally, a very brave cab drove up and offered to take my friends and me back to the hotel. This is when I start to remember things. The ride back was kind of blurry, but I remember it. When we got back to the hotel I got out of the car crawling to the steps, and fell asleep there. My buddies got me up and put in the elevator and I went straight for the corner, all I wanted to do was lie down. We got to the room, and I went straight to my bed and fell asleep, but in the process, I got a signal that I should be in the bathroom, so that was my next destination. I took car of my business there, and was to lazy to crawl back to bed, so I made myself comfortable in the bathtub and spent the night there. The next morning was pretty funny; one of my friends came in the bathroom to use the ?john?, not knowing I was in the bathtub. So I woke up and opened the curtain, and there he was, I was never so scared in my life and on top of that I had a huge headache I think you call it a hang over, yeah that?s it, I had one of those, a big one. We all got ready, I do not know how I managed that, and went out to eat. I had never eaten so much in my life it was pretty bad. Of course with my meal I had a drink, not Tom Collins, but a cervesa; thought I?d keep away from the liquor for a while. Well, that was my first time ever to get drunk, it was a memorable night, for my friends anyway; kind of wish I could remember, but I still have the memories ?til this day, the ones I remember anyway.
