Alcohol. Why do I bother?
I woke up this morning with one hell of a hangover, and I still feel rough now. Worst of all, I can't even remember a thing about last night. Apparently we went to a club, Rokoko's. I don't even know where that is.
So for my money, I have a completely blank evening and a headsplitting hangover. That isn't very good value in my view. So why did I do it? Why do other people do it?
Why can't I seem to reach a happy medium anymore? I always seem to end up stone cold sober or totally plastered. I never used to get memory loss and hangovers like this, maybe at 18 I'm getting to old for it all....
On the other hand though, perhaps it's a good thing I can't remember what happened...

Basically, I wouldn't worry about it, your mates are probbly winding you up.
And if you DID do it? Who cares, there's nothing you can do about it now anyway.
Just forget about it, and go out and have some fun this weekend.

Drink was created by the Devil, nah only kidding. You must feel like a right prat right now, but then who wouldn't. The more I drink the more tired I become and the worst I ever got was when I got to the party, drunk a tad bit too much and then half an hour later......well let's just say half an hour later I don't remember anything.
My mates had to carry me home and that was the end of that. Not quite as bad as yours, but god knows what they did to me whilst I was asleep....
*Shudders*

Shocky, I can't think you can say "Drink is bad for you".
It has been proven that a glass of wine each day can in fact help reduce the chances of heart attacks.
Also, people don't drink to be "in with their mates", I enjoy a few drinks at the weekend. Why? It helps me relax, unwind from the week.
Sometimes I also like going out and getting completely trashed, simply because when I'm like that, I don't care what I do. It's a release. I can do what I want and it really doesn't matter.

Remember, Venom, that they (your mates, or whoever told you what you got up to last night) could just be pulling your leg, couldn't they?
oh, and on the alcohol matter, drinking is utterly pointless - there is no reason to drink, especially when you end up being addicted and turning into an alcoholic. Why? Why do you lot drink stupid amounts of harmful alcohol? Just to be 'in' with your mates? It's the same with smoking. Both are totally stupid and ridiculous.
Thankfully, I have had a god up-bringing, and therefore have learnt in advance what is and isn't good for me. Now, I'm certainly not saying that you haven't had a good up-bringing, Venom d;oD
Right, it's your choice to keep on drinking and then pay the consequences. Your mates could of simply taken advantage of your memory loss and made all that stuff up about you, but you'll never know!
SHOCKY

I AM NEVER GOING TO GET DRUNK AGAIN FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
Refraining fom swearing at the moment takes a LOT of willpower.
I have been told what I got up to on monday night.
I didn't believe it when I was told yesterday, but now I'm not so sure.
Allegedly, I 'exposed myself' to a girl I know, as well as everyone else who was around at the time.
But I wouldn't do something like that in a million years? It's just something I wouldn't do. I'm far to shy and private for that. I've been very drunk many times, and I know what I'm like. I know I'm not like that. But....?
At the moment, I don't know whether the memory loss was a curse or a gift. Would I be more embarrassed (if that's possible) if I could remember? Or is the fear of what else I might have said or done worse than that?
I am not happy. Not happy at all. Not only am I afraid of what I might've done that hasn't been mentioned, but I'm afraid of getting drunk again and doing something as bad, or worse. I can't trust myself anymore. I used to be able to. That REALLY bothers me.
If anyone ever asks me what part of my life I'd do differently if I had the chance, I now have an answer.

Hmm, what i thought was best was milk before you head out, water during the night/as soon as you get back, and fruit juice the next morning.
I could never be bothered with that though.
I was asking myself the point of it all a little while ago.
The problem was that i either drank virtually nothing, and finished sober, or went at the same pace as all my ko-ing friends. But i didn't feel like i was getting anything out of that, and it was too expensive.
Of course, i'm not about with those guys so much now (ie, haven't been out with them since before 'that' topic. So now it's better. I still can't seem to balance it too well, and i've not had that much time for it recently, but generally, if i know how much i'm going to drink i can hold to that and hit that 'nice' relaxed zone most times.
Hope it's of some help...

Ah, the old student hangover.
Best way to get rid of it is to stay up for an hour or so after you get in, just watch telly or play games or whatever, but DRINK LOTS OF WATER.
If you have roughly 1 pint of water for every 2 pints of beer, you should be alright.
The way I look at it is thus:
You either wake up in the morning tired and with a hangover, or you wake up slightly more tired, but with a clear head.
The choice is easy my friend......
