1015 Folsom Nightclub example essay topic

There are many nightclubs in the city of San Francisco and throughout the Bay area. There is two different kind of nightclub. One is the high-class nightclub, which the cover charge is more expensive, tight security and the nightclub itself is more exclusive. The other one is the lower class club, which all people can enter and the security is not that tight. Nowadays, most nightclubs are the same.

Nightclub used to be for people to meet their friends and having fun together but nowadays many people misuse nightclub as a place for using drug. I never like to go to nightclub because the place is very noisy, dark and lastly drugs are often involve in nightclub. It took me a few hours to decide which club to go. I am a person who likes to stay at home watching television, playing video games and surfing through the Internet. Well, it was very hard for me to go out, as my legs felt heavy to walk through the front door.

After a long struggle, then I forced myself to go to a nightclub. My friend recommended me to go to 1015 Folsom nightclub because the songs are funkier. The club is located at Folsom street, downtown San Francisco. We arrived at 1015 Folsom around 11.45 pm. Many people were still lining up to get into the discotheque. I didn't know why people like to go to such a dark and noisy place like that.

Anyway, people who were there are mostly dressed up. Some of them looked interesting. My attention went to an old man about 50-60 years old man who were already dressed up and ready to rock his world. I wondered why would the old man go to a nightclub. May be he was lonely or may be he was just looking for fun and excitement. Well, I didn't really know.

Ten minutes after lining up, I went inside the nightclub. From the door, I could hear the song and the beat of the bass so loud that my heart could feel it. Inside the nightclub, I saw people were dancing everywhere, on dancing floor, on their own seats, everywhere. They would dance and take a big gulp of their beer. Even the bartenders were dancing too, following the rhythm of the loud funky music. The rainbow rays of light moved through the club to make the mood even more exciting and funky.

I, myself was also dancing through the night but what concern me most were some people who were dancing were also shaking their heads left to right continuously. I asked my friend why would they do that. Is it the style of dancing or what? Then, my friend told me that they may took drugs, from what he knew it was 'amphetamine' or the drug abusers often called it 'ESCTACY'. How this drug works was to make a person's body hyper and their mind would hallucinate.

The drug can be boost up or increase by an addition of the intake of caffeine which coffee, coke and other sodas contain. The 'ecstasy' could last about three to four hours and the price was $20 per tablet. At three o'clock in the morning, I could not stand the noise, the bore and the exhaustion anymore. My head started to spin and my heart was still beating so fast when I got home.

The club closed about 11-12 in the next morning. I decided not to go to nightclub anymore because the place is not suitable for me..
