Note to self don't drink till you vomit.

[Locut0s]

Went out with the new dorm room guys the other night. Let's just say I'm still not the best at knowing my limits when it comes to alcohol Luckily I'm not drinking because I'm depressed like in the past and I don't plan to use the dorm experience to party and start a problem, but I'm sure I'll join a party here or there, like one or two. But I don't plan to do anything truly dumb I know myself well enough there, a couple of the guys took 'mushrooms' before going out for example and I'm not going there. Luckily these guys are not your typical frat boy types, most of them are nerds and we have one very nice understanding jock type. Though said jock does seem more like your average partier. He's the one that tries to get the other guys to go out and loosen up and have a good time. Even a few weeks ago I would have told you that socialising in a group of guys like this would be hard for me but I'm doing well it seems. This experience, minus the other night, is going to be very good for me I think.

1. If I waited until I vomited, I'd hardly ever drink...

[Gidney N Cloyd]

2. Easy on the booze. Focus on getting laid.

[Tobin S.]

3. That's good advice.

Booze will make you flunk classes. You're less likely to flag a test because you fucked too hard the night before.

6. Well there was this one time...

But I don't know what happened to my shoes and I ended up on an island in the middle of Lake Champlain.

And okay liquor was a bit to blame but let's just say I really wanted that guy.

5. Could have used that advice a few years back

[Locut0s]

8. Lol that's probably good advise...

Too awkward and inexperienced, like zero, around women for that to likely happen though.

9. There's a first time for everything.

11. But there's zillions of coeds feeling the same way you are.

You're all just folks looking to make some contact.

4. Truly dumb things should be spontaneous, not planned

The college dorm experience should give you plenty of practice at spontaneity!

If I recall correctly, alcohol is not the only thing that can make you

[Locut0s]

12. Truly dumb things shouldn't be done...

I'm assuming you are trying to say though that this is a time to be spontaneous and experiment. The old adage that you don't know yourself till you have explored yourself? What were you thinking off when you mention other things that can make you commit?

7. The best advice is to slow drinking while you are still feeling "not that drunk"

Because by the time you are drunk, you still have a stomach full of alcohol for your body to metabolize.

Drink multiple glasses of water before you go to bed.

[Locut0s]

10. Yeah no more parties...

But I agree that's always been my issue. I drink till I'm drunk and more. By the time I'm fairly drunk I have way too much alcohol in my stomach still left, at that point you are screwed.

13. Always mix in food

One sandwich one drink, in that order. If you're full you won't pound the shots as hard.

14. And 1glass of water per alcoholic beverage.

That helps too
