Some of them leaving after staying for a while at Soi 11 (guess they're not having fun or go back for some others activities. Mostly go back earliar is couples...=D)
Those who still enjoying themself continue to have fun at Soi 11. While I move around to look for friends. I meet Ryan at Soi 11. After some time, I joined Michael go to SS.
here are really fun. the live band was so great. They play Hand in the Ayer
encounter 2 hot dancers upstair shake very hard.
After the Live band end, the DJ mix very nice song like Rihanna - Disturbia and Flo - Low Rider.
DJ mixed the Hand in the Ayer and the 2 hot dancers upstair shake real hard again.
While I club hopping back to Soi 11, I met Ah Kee (pretty girl) outside SS. Met with Ryan who playing Superman, Ultraman and Wong Fei Hung with his friends. I lost a few round and have to drink the long island tea (High % in alcohol). After that we go to Fame
