Hi my name is David Arroyo and I dont drink.
You know there have been a few things in my life that i keep secret and this is probably one of the bigger ones. Yeah you read right i dont drink. I hate beer. I hate wine. I dont care for champane. And the closest thing that i drink that contains alchohol is a Smirnoff Ice.
You know you would think more people would admire this or like this but whenever someone finds out this they tend to get weirded out. Like Melissa, when she found out that i dont drink i got the same look from her ive gotten from so many other people. How can i be a guy....not only that, how can a latino not drink?! Hell the mere fact that im in my 20's and never had a hang over or been truely plasterd is so scary for some folks that ive had people trying to force feed me beer.
Alchohol is a poison for your body. Im not being snotty or new agey but seriously alchohol is a toxin for your body, it gives you dead fat and fucks with your liver. If you drink to much you can get alchohol poisioning. Its the one thing your body tries to get out of your system as fast as possible (hence why you want to pee so bad).
Its really awkward for me whenever i go to bar or a party. Everyone always notices what the other is drinking. I usually ask for a soda cause then i can lie and say im having a rum and coke. How stupid is that? Why cant folks just accept the fact that someone who is not religious and likes to think is cool doesnt drink. When did being liberal suddenly involve having a drink in one hand and a joint in the next (thats another post).
Im not comming down on you drinkers. You can drink all you want, more power to you. Just dont give me the "WTF?!" look when i order a water when hang out. Is that too much to ask?
