Can't wait for the party tonight! :D :D :D :D :D :D
-
what did you graduate in?
and where?
and congratulations off course.
-
History as my main course and all other courses I took, University of Leiden :D

History, eh?
Only historical booze for you, then!
Lets see, mead, mead, and more mead.
Mead is actually a very nice drink.

uhm, i can't have it, way to sweet. if you go historical, cider is good too, and you can drink a lot of it before you go really drunk.
-
Aye, nothing quite like a good scrumpy.

Sweet alchoholic drinks SUCK. If i wanted sweet stuff, I'd rather take a coke. Wine at most. Cider.... ugh... almost as bad as liqeour(sp?)
Anyway congrats. Now go **** off.
*has still one exam and one week until graduation*

well, light cider is pretty good IMHO, basicvly appeljuce with bubles and 2% alcohol, so you get the taste, but you don't get drunk.
-
The point of the drink being....
-
Only ****e cider is 2%, make your own and it reaches very high levels.

not mroe then 12%, unless you start refining it,which would make it, uhm, how do you call that stuff, the very sweet one.
and off course illegal

I sometimes drink cider. Once becuase i was at a small music festival - in a forest - and they ran out of beer. Most of the time i drink it though its cause i'm bored of lager, after 5 or 6 pints.
-
Lager, to me, always tastes like someone has belched in my face, anyway.

i can't stand beer, at all, i get drunk after half a bottle.
and i don't really like the taste, only on the darker kinds of beer.
-
From what I've heard from friends, It's very hard to get me drunk, and even then I'm not any different than when I´m sober.
Go figure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
-
good, unless you just broke up orsomething, then it's bad.
-
I can't stand the taste, and so I don't know how much of it is needed for me to get drunk. At a mate's 16th, I made a small stubby bottle last 3 hours! Tasted of ****.
Guiness, on the other hand....
-
My average drinking on a night outta town :p (Chronological order :D):
- A few beers
- Banana boat (Usually 'bout 30%)
- Tequilla contest with your friends :D
- Sometimes a whisky (depending on where we are. For example: Disco and whisky don't mix very well)
- Followed by lotsa stuff I usually don't remember the next day :p
Note: This is just on a regular night out when its a good atmosphere and when I'm with friends (+/- 3-4 times a month). At home I barely drink besides the occassional Blue Curaçao... (Its worse on holidays though :p)

[color=66ff00]Listen, I'm Irish and even I can tell you that Guinness is bird**** and peat and tastes like it too. Worst thing I've ever tasted, well... maybe buckfast is worse.
Anyhow alcohol isn't my thing, which puts me in a minority.
[/color]
-
I'm not much of a drinker, either, but I am still a great fan of Guinness.
In fact, I've only been pissed twice in my life!
It's madness!
-
I've gone off spirits and mixers, dunno why. Just prefer a nice pint of lager, suppose cause it takes longer to drink - plus i actually like the taste.

[color=66ff00]Well, actually, I'm not a drinker at all, I have been drunk a grand total of zero times. I have a good time without it so I figure why bother? My friends are professional drinkers though and I often get to taste whatever their tipple of choice is. :)

Aaahhhwww come on! You just HAVE to get wasted once in your life! You can lay off the booze after that, but try it at least once!

Hee hee! This just reminded me of last saturday. I went out with a bunch of mates. They started off with absinthe, while I was still in work (the bastards). Basically, I was three hours behind all night, then had to drag one of 'em home 'cos the silly bugger didn't eat anything before he left. Two miles up a hill, in the pissing rain, at two in the morning, wearing only jeans and a few shirts, steering a guy who can't see is NOT my idea of a great night out. Funny to look back on, though (especially as he lost his wallet, with his driving licence, NI card, bank account cards, etc. inside!) :lol: He said he's not doing it again in a hurry, but we're spending a week on Rhodes next month, so I doubt that very much...
Fave drinks are:
Jack Daniel's and Coke with ice
"Jaftershock" - as above with two aftershocks tipped into it, as invented by aforementioned pissed friend Jim.
Corona - Mexican beer that has a weird fruity taste. Has to be ice-cold, though, otherwise it's grim.
I hate nearly all beer - it just tastes like crap. I only drink to get drunk, really, I'm not the kind of person who can just have a pint to relax - I'd rather have water or something with a half-decent taste.
As for getting wasted, yeah - do it once, but make sure you have nothing planned for the next morning, 'cos you may find you feel rough as f***! ;)
-
leezzzzz goooeeeee bbooooo000gggiiieee!!!!'
-
Well, I don't drink very much, but congrats. That's something big I'm definitely looking forward to. :):yes:
-
Congrats Tiara! :nod::yes:
How does it feel to be graduated (after a long night of celebrating I assume :D)?

It felt like a headache :D
-
figures :p
Well I did celebrate my graduation a bit yesterday too... we wen't to Helsinki with my father and he payed all drinks and new shoes, food and so on :D (it was his idea)
I didn't drink that much though... goes against my nature. But wine on the Helsinki Wine Festival was really delicious... what was it... Réne Barbier Varietal Temparillo. I recommend it highly :nod:

[color=66ff00]Actually I've never even considered it. I've never got a good vibe off the thought of getting drunk, I guess it's a little closed minded but I will not risk piece of mind over something I find so friviolus. *shrugs*
Anyhow back to the topic at hand: Congratulations, hopefuly you'll have a fast recovery. ;)

Meh, its fun. But be sure you go with your friends (Not the kind that'll strip you butt-naked and leave you in the middle of nowhere... Thats a common thing amongst guys... for whatever reason they have they seem to like it :p [No that hasn't happened to me :p]), and always have 1 person that doesn't drink with you (or one that has agreed not to drink that night).
-
Never been drunk. I will enjoy a nice glass of wine on occasion.

God damnit I was meant to see Leiden as part of my holiday this year until it all fell though... :hopping: :hopping: yaaaarrrgh!
Um, anyway, congrats Tiara. :D
No more drinking in the union / playing pool/cards / sunbathing.... [insert student activity here] :p
-
I discovered this morning that I am quite partial to whiskey, when mixed with lime juice.

Leiden aint to exciting to me. There are a few nice clubs though.

Well I was using up the last of the lime juice, and I found a bottle of whisky, so I just though "why not". Quite an interesting taste.

Lime Juice! There's no Lime Juice available in the entire Estonia. Not good if you want home-made Marguarita's. Not only that, even in restaurants they make it with Grapefruit. Ugh.
-
Not even Lime Cordial?
-
None! Nyet! Nada! Nothing! Zip! Zilch! Zwat! Ka-plaw! Moo! Quack! Bark!
-
That is severely messed up. How are you supposed to give yourself instant indigestion without lime juice?
-
I haven't had anything containing alcohol for over 3 years, i don't intend to change that.
-
There's half a bottle of Jack Daniel's next to my computer, because sometimes you lot really depress me

If we depressed you that much it would be an empty bottle.

I really like this attitude.
No really. Too bad I don't have the willpower to do that.
At least I'm not smoking (never did, never intend to).

All depends what it is you smoke, though.:D

Smoking most things gives you cancer.

Indeed.

nothing would be fine in my case.:p

Fair enough.
I might give up on the tea-smoking idea, after all. I've got better things to waste money on, like Bitter Lemon, and Egg Custards

I want to get drunk next friday.

Meh, he seems to be able to get drunk of numbers, anyway..:D

The more numbers the weirder he gets:D
The one drawback of booze is you get a damn hangover and you feel ****ed up next day.:D
I once woke up on my friends sofa with his dog on my back:D
-
Odd indeed.
-
That dog was kinda heavy, so it was hard to lift it up. I did get it of by bakning towards the ground into his own sleeping place:D
-
After St. Patrick's day I'm never getting drunk again..
8 of us decided it would be fun to play hockey..
We could barely stand as it was, let alone move around on skates....
I got hit in the face with a stick more times than I can remember...
Not that I could remember much anyway....
-
So your face is deformed now?:p
