Little sleep in exchange for a good time, I'll take it

This weekend I made a pretty great discovery so I have to start off with sharing something that I believe does not exist back in the states. Pre-mixed drinks in a can! They have Captain Morgan with Coke (my personal favorite), vodka with sprite, etc. Besides that Costa Rica's beer, Imperial, is also not bad. I also learned that some places close at 2, but mostly at 4 and some even 7 am! Therefore, I didn't get much sleep this weekend. On Friday, a couple of friends took me to a Reggae Club (apparently very popular here). It was nice atmosphere and I definitely enjoyed myself. The music can get a little repetitive but its super chilled out too. Saturday I was able to go to this festival called Palmares about an hour and a half away. It lasts for two weeks and students normally will rent a party bus to take there and back. At the festival there is concerts, food, bars/clubs and other activities. But to sum it up its basically a huge party. I couldn't miss out on going, so I did just that with a group of students. It was tons of fun and everyone was really nice and friendly. Learned a little lesson though, don't let a minor borrow your id. One would figure that would be common sense, but I felt really bad when she couldn't get in. However, I also didn't know I would be talking to security guards for almost an hour and would even have to cry for them to give me back my CT license. Other than that it was a great time, danced until I could dance no more.
