Heartache, TV shows and Drinking

Hey guys!
So right now I'm feeling better but today was not awesome. Someone close to me just broke up with her boyfriend and it's totally intense. When our friends start to experience heartache I will totally have the comforting technique down pat! It looks so painful though. I've never been in a relationship so it's hard for me to empathize with her but oh my gosh, it looks like the most painful experience ever. It suddenly makes sense why there are so many movies about love and breakups and such. It's also making me think twice about EVER getting involved with a guy...except that I definitely want to experience that first love passion *sigh, so romantic! My heart will be all a-flutter I'm sure :)

Soooo I watched the Superbowl Glee episode the other day. It was a little strange because I've stopped following the show, I stopped after the second...or err...second half? of the first season? Well last summer anyway. I think I have commitment issues with shows :P. I never watch a show consistently on TV. I just can't seem to remember the day I'm supposed to watch or even that I'm trying to keep up with the show in the first place. Then I get all overwhelmed with the task of keeping up with the storyline from week to week and it's usually around that point that I stop watching. Sigh* it's sad but true. Like the time I tried to watch vampire diaries and at first was so into it. I was reminded by a friend on the day it was premiering and I settled in that night for the show with a snack or two. I totally loved it, it was like a way better version of Twilight (which I had fallen out of love with at that point) and though it took me a couple of commercial breaks to fall for the love interest, by the end I thought he was steamy...and angsty. Perfect combo right? ;D I even resisted the ever present urge to flick during commercials so I wouldn't miss an important scene, this surely was a sign that this was the show I was destined to watch in it's entirety. Commercials and all! But alas, I didn't even make it to the second episode. I forgot about it without my friend to remind me. She told me to catch up by watching the re-run on Sunday but having already fallen behind a little I preeeeetty much lost interest. A sad tale, I know.

Now that I'm home so much of the time I actually catch the odd Vamp Diary episode but I flick a lot because I don't know the storyline or anything so really dramatic stuff will happen, with super intense music and I'll be like....huh?

I guess I should mention that when I say *flick* I mean change channels, or like channel surf. It's my thing, which I kind of inherited from my sister. But seriously, why would I keep watching a show I get bored of? Doesn't make sense to me :P hahaha, it drives my dad nuts. It's my revenge for when he tries to scare me during a movie or show that's got zombies or something.

Right, well I suppose I'll answer my friday question now. My general opinion of alcohol is that it totally lives up to it's reputation as a 'social lubricant'. My first experience with alcohol was a bit like Rae's because I also ended up in a bucket the next day. I went to this barbecue with a friend and my dance group and I think that most of the girls already had some experience with drinking but I didn't, like at all. Unless you count tasting my parents wine or beer :P Anywho I had a bunch of coolers on an empty stomach and then we ate and I drank some beer, and then we did some stuff I don't remember and I had some shots. My dad came to pick me and my friend up and we both threw up. Awesome right!? Omg not at all, I absolutely despise throwing, I'm terrified of it so it was a pretty horrible experience. But the barbecue itself was totally fun. I'd never had that kind of fun before so it was awesome. I said things to the girls in my dance group that I never said. At one point the dance teachers showed up and I talked to them too. I totally like that part of the night. But it took me like a year to actually drink again because I was so afraid of throwing up. That was like two years ago now, so I drank a bit at prom and then up at my cottage but it wasn't until recently that I decided I do like to drink with friends cuz it's kinda fun. Your head gets all woozy and all you want to do is dance. Weeeell, at least all I wanna do is dance :P I totally get not wanting to drink to though because it is kinda scary and we grow up being told that alcohol is bad so it's hard to all of the sudden when we reach 18 or 19 feel like it's okay.
Well, I think about covers it!
Till next week
Evie :D
