You know you're a raver when:

*The total amount of sleep you get on
weekends is the sum totals of how
many times you've blinked since Friday night.

* You have sleeping patterns that would kill
normal human beings

* You're dead against drinking alcohol, but will
snort horse tranquillisers with no prompting
needed.

* You start to think of Chuppa-Chups as a
separate food group

* You can live for an entire weekend out of your
backpack

* You're happy when there's a recession
because it means more empty warehouses.

* While your friends are getting married and
have kids, you're collecting yo-yo's and trying to
remove chewing gum from your cargo pants

* You visit your folks and you've got absolutely
nothing that you can say to your parents about
your weekend.

* You can stand in front of a 12,000 watt speaker
for an hour and be loving every minute of it.


* You can keep a straight face while uttering
"Honestly, not that many people are on drugs..."

* You're willing to spend $50 for a ticket for an
event you might not even go to, & $50 for
something that might be aspirin, but you're not
willing to part with $3 for a bottle of water.

* You are driving your car home and feel like
you're in a video game.

* You and your friends hear tumbling noises
coming from he washing machine and all start
to argue whether its jungle or hardcore.

* Almost every letter of the alphabet has a
separate meaning to you.

* You forget about your dreams of becoming a
doctor and start to wonder what it would be like
to be a cartoon character.

* You wallpaper your room with flyers.

* You've got a huge pile of dead glow-sticks in
your room because you can't throw away
because of 'sentimental value'.

* You lose 10 kilos in one night and the last
thing you think about the next morning is food.

* Air, water, food, medication, - all hold equal
importance to you.

* You've been close friends with someone for
weeks without actually knowing their name.

You can't help but jump to defend your drug of choice if it ever appers in
a negative light on tv or in the paper.

When peole see your eyes they think youve seen a ghost

People look at you strange when you come out of a club @ 7am in the morning
with sunnies on still bouncing round.

You start marking time by parties you've been to. "yeah that was the
weekend that phill renyonlds played at fevah eh?"

You learn more in the dance scene about chemicals than you did in bursary
chemistry

You are getting home on Sunday morning (from Friday night) the same time
your neighbors are getting
home from church, smile wave and say God Bless.

You sleep when your parents are awake and party while they are sleeping

The buzzing in your ears becomes a permanent part of your hearing.

You are a guy and buy glitter to wear

Your best friend becomes E and H²0 during the w/end.

80's fluro colours become 'rad' again.

You make the cross over from alcholic to water boy

Monday mornings you avoid hot drinks due to the fact you have chewed
through your cheeks over the weekend but still seek caffiene in high doses

You go out to dance to good music rather than score

You're at work on Monday and you reckon the 90 copy per minute photocopier
is goin offff!!!!

You look at the regular people who are doin every day stuff on a saturday
morning and think "what a
bunch of freaks!"

You quit your day job to get a night job to coincide with your clubbing
hours.

The check out chick at new world is scanning your groceries and you start
humming and bopping on the spot

When you know what everything in the chemist is for.

People can (and have) actually danced with their hands in the air to your
mobile phone ring.

When your parents ask you how your weekend was and you say "um? ok I think"
and you actually ahve no idea what you did until it all comes back to you
on Wednesday and you have a good chuckle at work.
