Such a sad time we live in when a college student's vomit can be considered hazardous material.

I am pissed. Tonight, I went to the dorm building I used to live in to visit my friends. We played some games and ate some food. Having a great time. Unfortunately, the dorm was FULL of drunk freshman. There was one girl who was living on the floor I was on, couldn't even unlock her own door.

But that's not the one that ticked me off. Another girl stumbled into the bathroom, and we heard her try to lock the stall for FIVE MINTUES. When there was silence, we figured she got it, but when I went in there, in turns out she had vomited all over herself and fell on the floor. So security was called, the RA showed up. this girl was plain stupid. She didn't know where she had come from, what her name was, who she was with, nothing. She couldn't stand on her own feet for two seconds. She had vomit all over herself and tried to tell the security that some other girl had vomited on her. It was very obvious she was a freshman, because she thought they were going to flunk her out of college for being drunk.

Well, when she finally shut up and started crying, she had a minor and a misdemeanor, because kept arguing with the guards about how she wasn't drunk, even though she reeked of alcohol. Turns out she lived halfway across campus and had no idea how she ended up in our building. Then she starts wailing about how she felt so stupid, about how if they weren't dealing with her, they could be helping other people.....

When you're so drunk you can't even stand up straight and take a step without falling, who could need more help than you?

I'm not even sure why I'm saying this. I bet half the college students who read this won't even care, because who the hell am I to complain about drunk people? Why should they bother listening to me? Why is this buzzkill preaching about alcohol?

Well, I used to be deadset agaisnt it. then I wasn't. And now I'm middling the line. I don't care if someone drinks. I don't care if someone gets drunk. For God's sake, though, use your head!! Don't kill yourself! Seeing that girl hunched over the sink, the toliet, leaning against the wall for support, I thought she was going to die. And last year, a good friend of mine drank himself into a coma. He was fired from his position of RA. Oh, did I mention he's the one who not only introduced me to alcohol, but pointed out to me his stash of pot? Great RA's my campus has. (Take me seriously when I say this: I've never done drugs. I don't desire to. I didn't even know what pot looked like until he set something in my hand and said "that's pot".)

I should take this moment to say I've drank all the fun out of drinking. I've never gotten sick, never thrown up, never had a hangover, but there was a point in my freshman year where I thought that drinking too much was ridiculous. Of course, alcholism runs in my family, from both my mother and my biological father. The way I see it, I don't have much of a choice, I'm bound to become an alcoholic. However, right now, I don't even feel like drinking. Right now, if I were to have a drink, it was be just that: a drink. I no longer see that glamour getting sick. Last year, I got drunk and couldn't unlock the door to my building. I had to ask a passerby to help me with it (all the while, that RA watched me act like an idiot....such a good RA, I say.) When we got inside, I insisted a hug from this stranger. And the next day, I saw him again, and he laughed.

Do you think I enjoyed that experience? At that time, yes, I thought it was hilarious. The next day, not so much.

So, I don't really have much of a point here. I guess I could end with your typical "Don't do drugs, kids!" but I can see one of two things happening. Either you'll tell me "Bah, people have been telling me stuff like that forever, I'm not gonna listen!" or you'll say "I'd NEVER do something like that!" with which I'll respond with "Hey, I said I wasn't going to do a lot of **** either, and here I am, doing it all." Except drugs. I doubt I'll ever do drugs, but I've learned to not say things like that.

and since I can't think of any way to really conclude this........
