A Terrific Decision

Announcement: I have decided to stop drinking. Altogether. Period. 

How it happened: I went to several parties tonight and somehow along the way, realized how ridiculous getting drunk truly is. I can't quite explain how I came to the conclusion to stop drinking. But I think it's sufficient to say I did. 

Why I am stopping: Best friends. I realized that, no matter what, I want to make certain friends happy. And someone told me that probably the best way to change my lifestyle and make those people happy, was to completely stop drinking and doing alcohol related activities. As I was going around to all these different parties tonight, it occurred to me what jerks most drinkers are. Plus, it will help me lose weight.

Best place to pick up girls - with a catch!

I have slowly and gradually come to realize that possibly the best place to see your friends or pick up chicks is – wait for it – the library from the early evening to early night. Of course, if you want to bring home one of these girls, you must wait for them several extra days because most of the time, they are there to study (really!) for some test or quiz and you’re a secondary priority to them passing school. Today, I was looking at some library DVD’s and a particularly attractive, particularly fun friend of mine recognized me and walked up to chat. As we were conversing, I thought I recognized that glint in her eye that says, “Blair, please take me home and lets party and have fun…” But what she actually told me was that she was loaded with tests and quizzes this week and wouldn’t have any free time. L You can imagine my severe disappointment. I did manage to make sure that she would spend the weekend partying with me though. So at least I have something to look forward to after everyone gets slaughtered by their exams.
