Seriously? The previous poster saying that you have to drink at 14-15 to gain experience? Sorry, but that is NOT the way to do it! I will be hypocritical here, because I had a few drinks here and there from the ages of 16 to 19. So I have partied the night away, I have got absolutely hammered, I have had concussions and bruises and not remembering a thing the night before, so I know exactly what is like. Do you know what, OP? You know full well you are not the type of person to be going out to clubs, drinking and playing these 'games'. I went completely teetotal when I turned 19, and have found other things to occupy my mind with: whether it be going out for the day, going shopping, watching a movie or meeting up with friends during the day, so you are not tempted to drink at night. You need to find another hobby outside of uni. You say you're into sports and weightlifting? Then go online and find classes for that particular hobby, and participate in it. Join societies, find the one that is right for you, for your preferences and lifestyle. I am all for people partying, they can have the time of their life, it has nothing to do with me. But what I am saying is, I have been there and done that. My aim and focus now is to work, volunteer, gain experience, get my head down and focus on my studies. Yours are obviously going to be different, like everybody elses. So please: do not feel like an outsider, do not feel bad and do not give in to peer pressure. You only get one shot of this - so do what makes you happy, nobody else!
