Part 5 of my Studyblr University Orientation Week 

I’d just like to preface this with two things: 

I’m from Canada, where the legal drinking age is 19. I’m legally allowed to drink in my country, as are many other university students, including many first years. So before any Americans come for me about condoning underage drinking: I am not American. I do not condone underage drinking. 

Okay now that we’ve got the disclaimers over with, let’s talk about alcohol. CW: discussions of vomit and rape. 

You don’t have to drink if you don’t want to. Some people will be assholes about this. Ignore them. There are lots of reasons not to want to drink, including flat out just not liking it. 

It’s not a clear cut between people who never drink and people who get drunk every weekend. Some people drink every weekend but only have one beer. Some people go out with friends once a month and get really drunk. Like so many things, this is a spectrum. 

Know what you’re drinking and how it will affect you. This means knowing if your drink has vodka or rum in it and knowing that rum makes you really sleepy. Don’t have five shots the first time you try vodka. You don’t know how that shit’s going to affect you and you don’t want to find out the hard way that it makes you really horny. 

Make sure that you’re either drinking with someone or you’re giving someone updates and not drinking too much. Getting drunk on your own can be dangerous. Don’t do it. 

Drink lots of water. 

Eat something before hand. No drinking on an empty stomach, y’all. 

Throw up in the toilet. Not the sink. Not all over the toilet. 

Clean up your own vomit. It’s rude to make your neighbour do it, especially when you projectile vomit all over the toilet. 

Don’t text while drunk. 

Hey sober buds? Don’t let people tell you important shit when they’re drunk or tipsy. And if they do, don’t hold it over their heads. They aren’t thinking clearly and it’s a shitty feeling to have something you didn’t mean being held over you like it was something that you did. 

Hey sober buds? DRUNK PEOPLE CANNOT CONSENT. IF YOU ARE SOBER AND YOU HAVE SEX WITH SOMEBODY WHO IS DRUNK THAT IS RAPE. 

Hey sober buds? Keep an eye out for your drunk buds. Use the buddy system and don’t let them wander off somewhere alone. 

Don’t leave your drink unattended. If you do, don’t drink it anymore. 

Pour your own drinks at parties. 

Don’t drink and drive. 

Thank you @astudyinkawaii for tagging me, :-)

Last movie I watched? The Bee Movie, lol was curious if it was good... (It was really weird tbh)

Last song I listened to? I honestly don’t know. Whatever was on the radio when I was driving home last night.

Last book I read? Wow, I haven’t read a book in FOREVER! (ugh not happy about that) Though it was most likely Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know. Pretty good book in my opinion but never got to finish it.

Last thing I ate? Some green bell peppers with black cherry dressing.

If you could be anywhere right now, where would you be? Anywhere with my boyfriend, but my bed sounds nice since I just feel super lazy today.

Where would you want to time travel to? This is hard to answer because there’s so much I want to see/experience. Let’s say the time when dinosaurs existed because HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE?!

Fictional character you would hang out with for a day? No answer - got tired of thinking, lol.

Another glimpse inside of my bullet journal. I did a handwriting spread in purple and wrote down the Family Vocabulary post by @miharusblog. I love them. I put it in my bullet journal because it the book I’ll be carrying around most often and it’s nice to have in case I want to quiz myself. The bigger book is filled with words I learned on the Drops app on my phone.
