    Re: Alcohol - why?
    You should hear how much 2 of my classmates (14/15)talk about how much drinking they did every weekend. They get insulted 24/7 in school but they still don't stop, most of the time by the religious guys. They literally lost all respect from everyone at my school. And everyone in class gets pissed off when they talk about "which mosque will you go to during Ramadan?" or when they say "talking bad about one person is a sin". Stupid hypocrites. And they say stuff like "I was drunk... walked to some boys and starting getting berr (very) lippy and starting swearing at them. They got shooked (scared) and did not talk" (yeah they probably didn't talk back because they were 12 years old).

    I actually have an unusually high tollerance for alcohol, and rarely manage to actually get drunk. (I am 5'2'') I have no idea why... If someone finds an answer I'd be interested to know.

    Me and my mates always give them religious talks (most of the time my mates do the talking) and then they get quiet lool. And they come to school drunk...

    Does anyone like drinking straight vodka? I highly doubt it. Does the job, though.

    You just might not be a lightweight. The first time I drank, I started on smirnoff ice too which is nothing. But when I started to drink properly I never ever got drunk and I only like drinking hard drinks. For example last night I went out I had 2 tequila shots, 2 sambuca shots, a jagerbomb, and 3 double vodkas and lemonade in the space of 3 hours and I was just lightheaded for some reason I never seem to get pissed!

    You didn't drink that much, especially if those ones that were mixed only had single shots of vodka/jd in them. You'd have to have a couple of them just to equal a pint of beer/cider. I mean I guess it's a fair amount for a first-time drinker, and possibly you should of felt something, but it's different for each person.
    I reckon your average person would drink that much on a night out, on top of drinking before they go out, that's why those people get drunk!
