So, my roomie for the last few months was going back to college (she was a co-op, which is like an intern) and we thought it only fitting for her to have a going away party. Being the good roomate/boss that I am, I decided to call ahead and make plans. I found a place that I had been to before - Sin Sin. I really only wanted to go there because of the name - it sounds like fun huh?
So, I make the call to get some tables reserved. We have a pretty diverse group of friends and I wanted to make sure that the place had a good mix of people that show up there regularly so that we weren't caught off guard. The guy assured me it was usually a big mixed crowd.
So, we get to the place and to our pleasant surpise, it had turned into a hookah lounge. I don't remember it being a hookah lounge the last time I was there, but thought it was a cool touch. Got a little off track here, the point of the story has nothing to do with it being a hookah lounge, but I hadn't ever smoked hookah before so I thought I would throw that in for good measure.
ANYWAY, back to the story. So, all the guests start arriving and the music starts playing and we mingle. Its getting pretty crowded with our group and a bunch of other people when Maggie all of the sudden looks at me and says, "hey, this is polish rap!" (Maggie is Polish). So, we thought it was interesting that they were playing a Polish rap song, but then all continued to mingle. The next few songs were all in Polish, and some guys also had called us over to the bar because they wanted to buy us a shot of Polish vodka. Maggie starts talking to the guys and we find out that it is Polish Happy Hour. Apparently there is a myspace site that plans these events and we just happened to be there the same night. We enjoyed talking to our new Polish friends. After a while, we got tired of not understanding the music though and left for Manahatta.
