Dos and don’ts of drinking!
As much as I love a great party and to have a good time with my friends, I always try to make sure I follow some rules when it comes to drinking. I have listed them as my dos and don’ts of drinking. Rules should be saved for future use.
Do
1. Every other drink you have should be a glass of water. The effects of the drinks will last longer and your head won’t feel as bad the next morning. If it looks and feels boring, just pimp your drink with an umbrella or fancy straw.2. Try to sink at least 2 big glasses of water right before you go to bed. This is actually the one I’m struggling with the most since I’m usually quite drunk when I get home and tend to forget that.3. Make sure you know what you are drinking. It’s never fun realizing that the Russian vodka you thought you were drinking is actually someone’s homemade poison mix.
Don’ts1. Don’t mix your liquor. If you’re drinking beer, stick to beer, and if you’re having wine, stick to that. I wouldn’t even recommend mixing different kinds of wine. If you’ve started drinking white and then move on to red, the effects are going to be worse. What I would recommend, though, is to just drink hard liquor, than you won’t have to worry about mixing. You can sink just about anything. Even shots!2. Don’t drink on an empty stomach. Always make sure you have a solid foundation before you pick up a drink. I’ve found that hamburgers, pizza, and other fast foods are the best choices.3. Don’t, under any circumstances, leave your glass out of sight. It doesn’t matter what you’re drinking, always make sure you keep one eye on that glass. If you loose it, get a new one instead of finding the old one. That will benefit everybody, especially the people owning the place, as they can hide everybody’s drinks to get them to spend more money at the bar.
Hope you found these dos and don’ts helpful. If you want to avoid any kind of misunderstanding or don’t want to have to remember these rules, then just don’t drink. Stay away from the booze! If you booze it, you loose it (your brain cells that is).
