Occurences in Spain

[Jeannaisais]

So, this past Saturday night I decided to branch away from my typical tea only stance...

 

A Spaniard invited one of my friends out to the botellon and discoteca, and she in turn invited two of her friends so she wouldn't be alone. Firstly, the botellon is where a whole bunch of people stand around and drink in a park while a discoteca is a bar with tons of dancing space. Secondly, I had rum with fanta...three glasses of it...and was tipsy.

 

I just wanted to share my first 'true' alcoholic experience with you guys. Usually in real life I'm very quiet and introverted and would never want to dance...me tipsy=wouldn't shut up and wanted to dance. Who knows what would happen if I was actually drunk! haha

 

Finally, I still like my Brew Tea! :D

OMG!! jea has been drinking booze!! hell must have frozen over

[Jeannaisais]

What? i didn't have that much...just enough to be tipsy :) And no, hell didn't freeze over, I decided to get out of my box some :D

This is the start of the slippery slope downwards!

[Wolfst3r]

Yes it sounds like we have some veteran drinks around.

We will follow your descent into the hazy world of alcohol, and partying.

Just make damn sure the haze clears in the morn

[Jeannaisais]

This is the start of the slippery slope downwards!

 

Don't I know it? If three glasses of rum and fanta got me tipsy...haha a friend from back home told me I need to try vodka and coke now, because it'll probably taste better than the rum and fanta

 

The haze did clear up in the morning, but I did have a bit of a headache...*shrugs*

[Wolfst3r]

Well that's a good sign :)

[Jeannaisais]

What's a good sign?

[Wolfst3r]

That the haze cleared up and you got a little hungover.

 

You know it's a bad sign when you wake up drunk or you wake up and have a drink to keep the haze.

[Jeannaisais]

What if I say the headache had me in a haze? I drank plenty of water and even went for a hike to help it out, and to burn off the calories of course ;)

 

And not allowed to have alcohol with me in the house here so, there will be no waking up and drinking at 8am for sure!

[Wolfst3r]

hehehe if there is a will there is a way

[Jeannaisais]

There is a bar/restaurant about 10 seconds from the apartment building I'm in....but I'm not going to become an alcoholic lol

[Corki]

The best thing to do is take each drink one at a time. This will allow you to see what your limit is, which you can gradually build up with time. And nothing wrong with having non-alcoholic drinks in between alcoholic ones.

[Jeannaisais]

I did space them out...I didn't realize i was a little tipsy until we started walking lol

[Wolfst3r]

Smart move, you are probably the most responsible new drinker i've ever heard!

[Krakalakachkn]

Congrats on your first experience Jea! I'm glad it didn't turn out absolutely horrible (although I didn't expect it would)

[Jeannaisais]

I may not know what proof everything is, but at least I know not to overdo it! Of course, now everyone thinks I need to get drunk sometime....awesome

[Wolfst3r]

being drunk is overrated

[Krakalakachkn]

Wolf tells the truth

[Canis Rufus]

Well I’ll tell the truth in the right company drunk is great the problem is, the right company drunk, is normally the wrong company sober. And no company the day after is preferable!

 

 

As long as our little Pokey does not become our little Pukey we’ll be fine!

Hahahaha spoken like a true wiseman.

 

But having been drunk alot i myself prefer tipsy. Especially now recently where i've been drinking so little i have a hard time keeping my drink, when i go on a bender.

[Canis Rufus]

I simply have losing a day off. It's great to go out and have fun all night but if I am going to feel Like $h!t the next day then what is the point? No I normally Drink a few early on and then spend the rest of the night drink Pop/soda/coke (depends on where you are). That way I know I am getting home safely and my bar Tab didn't just cost me my dinner tab for the next day.

[Jeannaisais]

I, personally, have no desire to ever be drunk. It was a huge step even trying anything alcoholic, and then having more than one of them was a downright phenomenon! That being said, I think I'll take the advice of drunk being overrated and just go for tipsy :)

That kinda sums it up
