It is a Friday afternoon, and you are woken up from your third nap of the day by your friends blowing up your group chat. After the week you’ve had, there is nothing more tempting than a night dedicated to your best girls. These moments are the nights movies are inspired by and crucial for any woman to survive single life... probably married life too. So you get yourself partly dressed, pack a bag and call an uber to your rendezvous point, all the while thinking about how much fun you’re going to have tonight. These epic nights of memories you wish you had, are called Girl’s Nights.
In my experience, the nights go like this:
1. Shower and wash your hair for the first time in the week.
2. Pick out an outfit, then pick out another… and another… and then put the first one back on.
3. Go to your friend’s house.
4. Do your makeup, put on your red lipstick, take it off and then reapply because you really can’t decide.
5. Make a weird face when you apply your mascara and point out how you made that face.
6. Take a shot.
7. Pour a mixed drink.
8. Take another shot.
9. Talk about how you’re actually a lightweight drinker and how you’re already buzzed.
10. Take another shot.
11. Call the Uber.
12. Arrive at the club stumbling out of your ride.
13. Hit on guys so they buy you drinks.
14. Listen to your friend in a relationship complain about her relationship.
15. Do a really embarrassing dance in the middle of the dance floor that all your friends put on their snapchat stories.
16. Text your booty call, then your other booty call, then your ex.
17. Get kicked out at last call.
18. Complain about how bars close too early.
19. Get back to your sleeping spot.
20. Take another shot, because YOLO.
21. Order food you would never normally eat.
22. Eat much more than the recommended serving size.
23. Cry about being single.
24. Call your ex again.
25. Pass out on the couch.
Amidst the hangovers, the embarrassments and the laughs you shared, it was the exact night you needed. And you’ll do it all again next weekend.
