Got invited to a Beer Pong party. Never been to one cuz I'm not in a White fraternity (or a Black one either). An American friend invited me so I decided to check it out (on my way to watch the Strikforce PPV at the Sportpage restaraunt).
If you don't know what Beer Pong is...look it up on youtube, google, etc (I did).
Side note: I've realized that Panama is small and not a place where people go out of their way to be your friend...so if you wanna get to know people, you have to insert yourself into whatever is going on and make an effort to meet new people and try new things. As an outsider, if you don't take iniative, you'll find yourself BY YOURSELF. :)
The guy hosting the party had it on his rooftop apartment. The place was nice and the people were cool...I made some new contacts. The crowd was mostly Americans or Panamanians who spoke perfect English.
The host had 3 beer pong table setup in an empty living room. People were playing and getting into it. Not being a beer drinker, I just watched and networked a little (I learned some info about Panama that I can't repeat on here, but I can tell you in person).
At one point, 4 girls were talking about their "bitches" (little dogs) and how they're are trying to breed and raise them. Then the same girls starting "slamming" beers. AKA punching a hole in the side of the can and then drinking the entire can.
Oooooooookay...so that what its like at a frat party...interesting. This was the first time that I actually felt like I was in the US, here in Panama.
You are hilarious! I hope you keep this blog up because you are giving a POV that is interesting to those of us who have been to frat parties (and were appauled by them) but more importantly, you are showing the side of Panama City that people who would consider living there really should understand.
ReplyDeletegood stuff,

What did you learn? I'm intrigued now. I'm from Panama but unlike some, I can take some criticism. Bring it on!
