first...i'm so sorry, honey. it totally changes the world when someone that close to your age dies. and especially in such a terrible way, that could have been prevented if people were only a little less...whatever.
i guess i know a little bit about how you feel, bex, because i always kind of felt like one of the very few people that didn't drink.
i've found that just "not drinking" isn't really enough for me. i have to be loud about not drinking. and also be the funnest person in the room. it's kind of exhausting, but maybe it helps. i don't really know.
Totally, Rach! That's what I try to do too! except that I'm usually not the funnest person in the room. But I try to always be content and happy and joyful and smiley and...
well, it's not like i was always (or ever) successful. but i always tried to be crazier and more fun sober than anyone else was drunk or high. like i'd dance on the tabletops and accept dares and stuff.
thanks you guys & that's a good idea, rach. i think it's important to let people know that they can act just as retardedly without drinking...and they have a better chance of making it home alive, too
yeah. i mean, the main reason for drinking is the excuse to do all the things that you wish you could do sober, but that you need that safety net of being able to say later "oh, well, i was drunk..."
sorry kiddies, that's not how life works. you are still accountable for your actions. i'd rather be able to remember everything i did and said and wake up the next day not feeling like i want to die.
It's so stupid how even at this age, people still give me a hard time about not drinking much. Not that I don't drink any alcohol ever. But after a glass of champagne I already don't feel like drinking more. So why should I? I can not tell you how many times I've been called boring or even immature (!) because I've never gotten wasted.
Peer pressure sucks.
And so do drunk drivers. My mom lost 2 cousins to that.
