So yea
I have been watching my neighbors off and on tonight (I can see into the living room from my room) and over the past couple hours, they have progressively gotten drunker. One guy and girl are attempting to dance which is funny because they keep falling. The more they try the better they get. Another girl is dancing on a table (this i did once). THis and other events in the past couple of days have got me thinking about drinking.
What is the point, I mean don't get me wrong I have drunk a couple times this week, but no more than 2. What would possess a person to get so drunk that they pass out and then the next wonder how they got so drunk. That question was possed to me today. I was asked how can one's alcohol tolerance go down in just a few short years. To that of course I had no real answer. This week was finals week and people have come in to take the final with hangovers, now in my eyes you would want to be soder when taking a major test. I see how people act now as seniors in college and I have to wonder how are they going to act in the professional world? You can't show up for a major presentation or something drunk....that would get you fired. I would have thought that seniors would focus more on getting that dream job and being professional about things, but apparently I was wrong.
To me a drink from time to time is alright as long as it's not in access. When it starts to get out of control and you pass out in someone's else's room then there is a problem. the more I watch my neighbors and other people being drunk I wonder if they realize how stupid they really look and sound. Every so often I get to fall asleep to the sounds of frat boy drinking song......"tuesday's drinking day, wednesday drinking...." it goes on like this for a while, everyday they same except thursday....day to get laid apparently. THis kind of stuff i do not need to hear outside my window at 2:30 am....luckily it's winter and too cold for then to wonder around campus.
I'm just astounded by the stereotype of college kids, and am glad I am not a part of it.
