not impressed with the german club scene!

so when svens friends arrived we got the party started with the music and everything. they were quite nice and spoke english mostly in my presence so i appreciated it. but when they would switch to german for like a sentence it made me wonder if they were talking about me lol. stupid me for not learning the language prior to my visit!! so jeff asked for my fb so i gave him my name and he added me then and there on his phone, and then we started going through my profile pics, so i had to explain them all (well, not ALL of them, we would be there for weeks otherwise!) and i realized that i put up lots of pics of me in costumes as my profile pic cause that was nearly every photo! so after a bit of chatting and trying to communicate with michael, i told him to teach me german. so he tells me to repeat some sentence. i had no idea what he was trying to say and i kept pronouncing it wrong so i told him to write it down. this was the sentence: Ich liebe Männer mit dicken Schwänzen. so all i knew of that was i love ___ with ___ ___. so after practicing this sentence over and over and continually screwing up the last word, i decided to announce to everyone my nearly learnt german phrase. it didnt come out crystal clear, but everyone laughed so i guess they knew what i was trying to say. i then asked what the translation was: "i love men with thick dicks". and ironically, dicken is the word for thick, not dick lol so after a bit of laughter at my expense, i got in touch with mayke and persuaded her to bring the crew to svens. i thought for sure they arent going to venture all the way out there but sure enough they did. they had to go pick up jorien at the train station around 11:30 pm so they came around 10:30 so obviously couldnt stay for long. it was good to see them for that short time and we caught each other up from when we were together last at the medicine ball the previous night. they were such party animals, staying out till like 6 am. i thought, my god i am turning into an old maid, cause i went to bed at 3! but then again they woke up in the afternoon and did nothing, at least i got to do some sightseeing and explored a bit of cologne and felt the carnival atmosphere. so they soon left, i thought it would be best to stay with sven so i wouldnt feel like i was ditching him and only using him for a place to rest my head, but we decided we were going to go to a club altogether (meaning with svens friends as well) later on in the night. mayke said she would text me once they got jorien and figured where they were going. well some time goes by and the germans decide we are going to a club. so im completely at their whim since i didnt know the area at all. so i just followed along when we finally left svens. it kind of reminded me of when i was in high school and went out as a huge group, and feelings of how much i hated going out as a big crowd came fleeting back. it was just so annoying, this one needed to go to a gas station to pick up food or cigarettes or whatever so we had to wait. and blah blah, it was all just so slow getting there. not that i was in a rush. sven ignored me the whole time to be with his friends, and sometimes they would talk to me, but they mostly spoke to themselves. every now and then daniel or michael would ask me something and i would answer and that would be the end of the conversation since they didnt know how to respond to my answer in english. so we eventually get to this club, long line, so we wait. had to pay E5 to get in and the guard told me to do something but i just stood there blankly until one of svens friends told me to open my bag to be searched. so once we got in, it was extremely crowded!! the line for the coat check was unbelievable. no organization at all, just a huge mass of people all surrounding a tiny desk. these are the times i wish i was a giant. so after dealing with that for like 15 min we finally got on the dance floor and danced for a while. most of the music was either german, carnival and/or kologne related, or shitty american dance music like the song "hangover". so needless to say i wasnt enjoying that too much. but the worst part was people smoking inside. it drove me crazy. the smell was getting all over my clothes. and also i was being bumped into and shoved a lot. but i just kept dancing trying to have fun although i couldnt wait for carmen and mayke and gang to come. i texted mayke saying where we were but no response. time ticked by and i kept checking my phone to make sure i hadnt missed a call/text from mayke but nothing. i didnt hear from her all night. i guess i should have been a bit more persistent, like called or sent another text, but i didnt. so they never showed up. svens friends eventually started disappearing on the dancefloor amongst all the people. sven danced with his friends and didnt talk to me at all and i saw michael sitting in the corner looking bored so i went over to try and talk to him. some song came on and i made a comment about how cheesey it was and he said something along the lines of, "its robbie williams!!!" with such excitement. didnt realize he was so big out there lol so we went and danced a bit. 2 of svens female friends said we made a cute couple and that he really likes me and i should go for it. i said ummmm no thanks!! so shortly after we rejoined the mob scene to get our jackets and then walked back to svens. sven was real drunk by this point and saying stupid things and spoke to me a little bit but i was tired and annoyed i hadnt heard from mayke so i wasnt really in the mood to be dealing with his drunken antics. when we finally got back to his place, everyone crashed in the living room. i slept on some broken couch, and went right to sleep as soon as we got back. they told me they were going to watch some movie, forgot what it was now, one of these new action films, but it was in german dubbed so there was no point in me watching. they asked if it was going to keep me awake but i said no. so i curled up as best i could on the broken sofa, sven said something like "thanks so much for coming i really really appreciate it" but im sure it was just the booze talking. michael invited me to share his bed with him to sleep for the night but i said no and with that i went to sleep. still nothing from mayke. i was so tired by this point that i literally did not hear anything from them or the tv while they watched the movie all night long!!
