It looks good

The following sentence is obviously very informal, but is it correct? If not, how would you correct it?

"Now I'm going to a club with my friends, it looks good!"

Thanks in advance.

I should also mention that there is a slight difference between these:

A) Now I'm going to a club with my friends, things are looking good!
B) Now I'm going to a club with my friends. Things are looking good!

In (A), there is more of an implied contrast with a previous situation (before it was decided that you were going to the club). From your original post, it

Do you understand this difference?
Now I'm going to a club with my friends. I haven't arrived yet. eg I'm on a bus.
