<p>A private birthday at a motor mechanic warehouse at Atarmon It&#8217;s a friend of a friend of a friend&#8217;s birthday. The warehouse was actually a mechanics shop. Upstairs appears to be the meal area which had been cleared and converted to a dancefloor. Installed were disco lights and a DJ set. It was pretty good, and you could almost mistake it for being a purpose built clubbing room built inside a warehouse. Amazing stuff.</p>
<p>On the way there, one of the girls who was already drunk had spewed her guts out at Atarmon and so she sent her home along with her 6 other friends. A bit of a downer but we marched on to destination <br /> <br /> We finally got there, and it was already roughly 1am. We are greeted by the birthday boy, and he begs us for dancers to join him in the dance festivities as nobody was dancing. Oh, no problem we were going to dance for sure</p>
<p>We got there an the place is all guys, half gay half straight. Oh well. Dance, dance, dance and afterwards we were over the dancing and left after 90 minutes because it was all guys.</p>
<p>-The End-</p>

 <br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Saturdays @ Opera Bar</strong></span><br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Location</span>: Just outside the Opera House, Circular Quay, Sydney<br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Dress Code / Door Policy</span>: Smart Casual is the norm, but anything goes here.<br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Entry Fee / Cover Charge</span>: Free<br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Music</span>: Instrumental house.<br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Crowd</span>: Classy.<br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Atmosphere</span>: Cold, and so there weren&#8217;t many people outside &#8211; but enough to fill up all the seats.<br />
 <br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Timeline</strong></span>:</p>

<p>So anyway, we are dancing casually, and suddenly an old asian man is dancing like a madman! His wife is looking at him with dismay, and I think.. &#8220;I like this guy &#8211; I want to be like him when I grow up&#8221;, so I joined him. Here&#8217;s the video:<br />

<p>The old man is the dude on the right. Seriously<br />
 <br />
 Right afterwards, security warned us that we should take photos quicker, as they &#8220;dont like that sort of thing&#8221; (the dancing) in here. I wonder why a DJ is installed here then! <br />
 <br />
 <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Recommendation</strong></span><br />
 This place is just a bar, and nothing more. Pretty nice views though <img src='http://jamestran.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p><div class="g-plusone" data-href="http://jamestran.net/2010/05/08/me-dancing-with-my-future-self-opera-bar-saturday-8th-may-2010"  size="standard"   ></div><fb:like href='http://jamestran.net/2010/05/08/me-dancing-with-my-future-self-opera-bar-saturday-8th-may-2010' send='false' layout='button_count' show_faces='true' width='450' height='65' action='recommend' colorscheme='light' font='lucida+grande'></fb:like>]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I won&#8217;t go into a detailed blog, but I&#8217;ll just put this story down which basically ruined my night:</p>
<p>Friend and I are in a group of girls dancing. I am close with one girl and he is close with another girl.</p>
<p>Suddenly, a bisexual girl <a href="http://jamestran.net/2008/11/01/together-arthouse" target="_blank">that I met</a> last year ppears. Last year, my friend narrowly almost hooked up with her, but I hooked up with her instead, and I didn&#8217;t call her the next day, per se.  She wasn&#8217;t the best looking girl in the world.</p>
<p>She says hello, and tries to grind with me. I don&#8217;t want to. She hangs around, not going away.  After about 30 minutes she has somehow worked her way into the group and is now the star of the group of girls. Long story short, after another 30 minutes, she is making out with the girl i was dancing with originally!</p>
<p>OMG I just had my grass cut by a lesbian!! I Hate Lesbians!! Has this ever happened to someone else on the face of this planet? My god. So I am left there with my blue balls. The rest of the night was ruined and I was in a state of shock&#8230;. FML</p>
<p>On top of this, lesbian had brang a friend, and that friend, too kissed my friend&#8217;s girl. So it was a double whammy. We were no longer men.</p>
<p>Karma is a bitch. Always call the girl the next day if you don&#8217;t want this to happen to you.</p>
<p>Cheerios</p>
