Well as many of you know, uni has finished until september but so much randomness has taken place i decided to put my findings into this new blog.

Well from moving up to coleraine i discovered my first love... Vodka. Its amazing but most of these random things have happened under the influence of this substance. I was never the biggest drinker, but I loved it in large amounts lol So this is my disclamer folks!

DO AS I SAY AND NOT AS I DO!

1. DRINKING
Many good nights can be because of this, but it can also be the root of all evil. My first bad experence with this was the themed 'School Disco' (See 'Uni Birthday Times' photo album for evidence) up at traks in Portrush. So after I traveled up to Coleraine and arrived at Geralds at 9.20, I had until 10.30 before we went. So i got ready and started drinking. Lucky that alcohol had been purchersed for me. Rachael dared me to finish my Jagermeister (1lt) before I left. Being a dare i gladly accepted and managed to complete it! So I got in the taxi and went to traks and was feeling great! And after another few drinks, a smoke was needed! So as I stumbled outside and sparked up, somethings didnt agree with me... The Jager. So as i attemped to refrain myself from being sick, I ended up projectile vomiting out my nose!!!! But I cleaned up and continued partying! hahaha

Lessons
Know your limits
Stay in a group
Know when to call it a night
DONT MIX DRINKS
Dont do every dare

2. DRUGS
It may be good for like 5 minutes, but after that it's a pain. One time i had some up at Uni and it was such a weird experence. Myself and a certain V.Y**** PhD OBE MBE got excited about her posessing some. So we had a laugh rolling then and sorting it out. So we shared a really strong joint and after about 15 minutes it set in apon me. The first sign was when my eyebrows broke. The just started acting weird and like would move! It was really freeky. Then secondly, cottonmouth! (This is when your mouth gets so dry and its impossible to quench your thurst. Even sprite doesnt work!) The the only good part.... The giggles. So me and Miss Y**** sat watching family gut and south park (leading to the sayings 'Oooooo Nooooo!' 'YYYEEESSSS' 'Mr Superman, he no here') And we laughed for an hour! espically at rachael's hair! (hu hay hu hay!) hahaha

Lessons
Dont do it
Try and not freek out
Your body parts only feel broken, unless you fall etc so be careful
Know when to stop
Dont do it all the time

3. SMOKING
It might be cool, or the 'IN' thing, but its hell to stop on down the line. I have smoked for 3 years now and it was the biggest mistake I have ever made. and the smoking ban was the worst thing about it. Many people I know HATE smoking!!!! So the best advice I can give you... GIVE UP or DONT START!

Lessons
If you are silly enough to smoke, smoke smooths
Try and stop
Dont smoke rollies! They may be cheap, but are the most dangerious!
The NHS offers free replacement theropies. GO ON IT

Just learn from my times as a drunked bum, and remember...

Do as I say and not as I do!!!!
