My thoughts were so loud I couldnt hear

I don't think I can consider myself an adult until I start to wake up early like normal adults. I have no respect for my alarm clock ( Read more... )

Moderation.

Fighting one extreme, like drinking, with another extreme, like not drinking usually isn't the most effective way to deal with a problem.

That's what they say, anyways. Drinking is a "bad" habit, so I mean, if you want to completely stop drinking, then more power to you.

I always find things easier to manage if they are in moderation. We've all seen me drink WAY too much, and it can be fun, but most of the time, it's better to just have a few beers, and call it a night. I think that comes with getting older. A lot of the time, I think, "Fuck, I cannot deal with being hungover all day tomorrow" I'm not all youthful, so being hungover just makes my day unmanageable.

I know that there is only a 4 year age difference between us, but believe me, those for years make a difference. When I was 21 I could get shitfaced every night, and still function the next day.

You're still young, enjoy how resilient your body is. Eventually, your body will let you know when it is time to stop.

I think that made sense. I hope.

Well, sure, that is all very well advice in theory. But what about the fact that my body might very well NOT tell me when to slow down or stop. It happens to many folks. I certainly don't think it will with I, but it's a possibility. Just playing devils advocate.

Oh and by the way... neither of you even know about "feeling old" and the hangover issue. Wait til you're almost thirty. Life's a bitch sometimes.

I see your point. That's the problem with good advice, it's only really good in theory. That's one of the good things about being young, you can take advice and do what you want with it, and about 95% of the time, there isn't any serious consequences that come with fucking up. Most of the serious life lessons that I hold dear came as a result of me not listening to good advice, and getting burned. Smart people learn from their mistakes, so you should not have to worry too much about that. As long as you're just the super drunk chick walking the streets of ann arbor, and not the super drunk chick throwing up on the streets of ann arbor, you probably don't have much to worry about right now.

Write. This may sound like a silly alternative, let me clarify. Instead of going out to drink, spend a night at home, take a few shots (moderation... Joey's right) and take a few hits... One thing Matt Brown taught me was that drugs are more fun at a threshold level. Do the minimal amount of both, alone, and just write. It's fun. Promise.

a fantastic idea. I do liek to write. livejournal has reminded me such, on a very rudimentary level of course, but still, yes.
