Thank you, my dear BWW friends!
I love you all, and I appreciate the well-wishes.
I will now regale you with the stories thus far from my 21st birthday...
(DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACH... I AM STILL AFFECTED BY THE ALCOHOL, AND THIS IS PROBABLY TOO MUCH INFORMATION)
I had rehearsal for Macbeth until 10pm.
I went to the dorm room of a friend of mine and gathered with a few people for a before party.
I will remind you that I DO NOT DRINK normally...
I had two glasses of champagne and some scotch
I hated all of it, but it's a rite of passage, right?
So one of my sober friends dropped us all off at a bar in South Bend (quite the dive).
I gave my friends a rule before the night began...
I would try to drink whatever anyone bought me, but no one was allowed to buy me more than one drink.
I was out with another girl who was turning 21 and 4 of our mutual friends (the other birthday girl and one of the 4 friends had no money on them. three drinks sounded like plenty to me).
Friend 1 bought me a white russian.
Buzzed.
Friend 2 bought me a vodka tonic.
Tipsy.
Friend 3 bought me a cosmopolitan.
Drunk.
Now, I had never been drunk before and was quite surprised to find that it was exactly as people generically describe it.
Walking got harder.
Then standing got harder.
I started seeing 2 of everything (although I was referring to it as "one and a half" at the time).
The room started spinning.
And here's when I knew it was bad...
My ability to speak English started to go.
So what did I do?
I drunk-dialed my parents.
Bad, I know.
They're in another time zone, so I called them probably around 2am.
I'm sure they were thrilled.
I sat down in a chair.
I knew I was drunk.
I EXPLICITLY told my friends that I wanted no more alcohol.
But they decided to break my earlier rule, and I was too drunk to realize they were breaking it.
Damn.
Friend 1 and Friend 2 wanted to buy me a tequila shot, but luckily Friend 3 (my wonderful boyfriend) talked them out of it.
So they bought me something that I believe was called a "Jager-bomb".
It was disgusting.
Then, about 10 minutes later, Friend 1 tried to get me to dance.
I tripped and broke my shoe.
And that's when the vomiting started.
So I ended up laying on my side on a cold sidewalk with my head on my boyfriend's lap vomiting into the grass outside of a skeezy bar, freezing my ass off.
(I won't be able to eat cottage cheese again for awhile... it isn't pretty in reverse).
It was terrifying.
They were worried I had alcohol poisoning.
I kept insisting that I didn't.
I vaguely remember overhearing my friends' unsuccessful attempts at getting a taxi to come.
They eventually called a friend to pick us up.
He took my boyfriend and I back to my boyfriend's house.
My boyfriend then proceeded to help me vomit into a toilet and not on myself.
I was wearing a dress over pants, so he was able to help me change out of it without me being, you know, indecent.
(pants off under dress, new pants on under dress, sweatshirt on, dress off under sweatshirt)
Then I fell asleep in his bed.
I was still waking up to vomit around noon.
At some point during the night I managed to lose my college ID and my cell phone.
I took a shower and my hair still smells like smoke.
I don't plan on drinking again for awhile.
Like I said, though.
Rite of passage.
Had to do it once, right?
And think about it, I did all the quintessential things.
- Drank before the bar.
- Drank in a bar.
- Danced in a bar.
- Broke a shoe.
- Slurred my words
- Stumbled around
- Witnessed the room spinning
- Vomited excessively (and in more than one location)
- Went home with a guy and passed out in his bed.
~THE END~
Hope you enjoyed my story, and I hope that no one under 21 makes these mistakes on their birthday.
I starred in a short film called Magnetic Personality. Check it out!
