A word about going out

It's quite different here. QUITE different. I'd say this is my impression so far of the Brit going out habits:

Two-ish nights a week (depending how ambitious or rowdy one is) are donated to RAGING. And by raging I actually mean dancing. A LOT of dancing. It's like DU Spinning on Halloween where everyone is down to jam..but times a million. These nights you go out at the normal late hour of 10-11PM and then rage until....3AM? And then wait for the bus (which is approximately forever) and get back circa 4:30AM... glorious. But not. Really tiring. Then the other 5 nights a week its much chiller. Outta class, to the library, dinner, and then to the pub by 8. Meet up with friends, have a pint or two, and bed before 12. Pubs actually need a special license to be open after 11 usually.
I haven't been very successful at this British going out trend yet. But then again...I've got a few months to hone these skills.
