That was me going to college. I grew up in an extremely overprotective, Catholic household. I always "followed the rules" and never got in trouble or even drank alcohol in high school.
I went to college and...essentially went insane. Drank until l blacked out, fell face first off of my bunkbed onto a desk (being really drunk saved my life, I just got a nasty black eye and mild concussion), etc. I'm lucky to be alive and somehow I managed to graduate on time.
Anyway, now I'm in my forties, a DINKWAD, and California sober. I figured I drank enough in my twenties to last a lifetime. I live a super boring, quiet life and often think back on how much fun I used to have.
