People drink for many reasons. Some drink to remember, some drink to forget and some simple because they love the taste. I started drinking as young as 13. Started off with beer then move on to liquor at 16 and recently to wine. I had forgotten the reason I took the first slip, maybe out of curiousity maybe influenced by peers.

I've seen how different people behave when drunk. You can tell a person's character when he or she is drunk. That is a time when the person is at true self. I realised that the reason why drunkards talked loudly is because the senses were weak under the infuence of alcohol.

I used to drink till I knock out everytime I 'm out drinking. Nowadays I find it hard to get so drunk till I knock out. Perhaps my body had got used to it over the years.

Not long ago when I was out drinking with a friend, I saw him coughing out blood at the end of the day due to lung infection. We drank alot that night, starting with beer at Boatquay and move on to Clarkquay for Chevas till about 4 in the mornng. I asked myself if its right for me to ask him out when I know that he can't drink due to health problem. That night he told me to bring beer to his funeral should he passed away befor me. Is it worth it to risk your life for drinking? Who invented beer or liquor and what was the reason behind?

I told myself that I don't drink for a reason, I drink simply because I enjoy it. Is it the truth? Am I enjying or am I torturing myself when I get drink??

When was your last time drinking and what was it for???

Tired...but...

I can't believe I actually worked for 30 over hours. I am so.... tired that I feel that I might just drop dead while sleeping. Its Friday night so how can I waste it by sleeping thru the night.

Mm...any nice place to spend the night? Been to Este bar a couple of times, nice atmosphere and very spacious. I like the walkway that leads into the bar from the enterance. Feel like some supermodel walking in.

The pole dance was more of a acrobat to me. Grabbing the pole with their tighs and hanging upside down wasn't so attractive. It reminds me of the snake hanging of the tree. Well.. at least the band was still okay... wide variety of songs and some talk show in between.

What and what should I drink tonight?? A pub or a disco? Beer or liquor? Can't seems to make up my mind. Anyway the night is still young.

As usual, a word of reminder to all drinkers, don't drink and drive. Finish your drinks before driving.

Me, Alcoholic??

A friend asked me: 'When are u going to stop drinking and be sober?' I had asked myself this question quite some time ago too but after one big round, it goes back to why should I be sober everyday? Drinking and alcoholic is two different thing. Although I drink almost everyday but I am never a alcoholic. I don't depend on alcohol to get pass each and everyday. I agree that excessive alcohol is bad for the body but I don't go to the extent of abusing it. Its like a sword with two edge. It all depends on how you use it.

To me, drinking and pubbing is a culture. Different moods goes with different alcohol. I don't have a preference between beer, liquor or wine. It all depends on where I am, who I am with and how I feel.

Beer is like jeans and t-shirt; its comfortable and casual. Its acceptable to most of my friends regardless of age. It goes well for most occasion and blend you well with other pubbers. The feeling of beer gushing down the throat is cooling and relaxing.

Liquor is consider smart casual; Chevas or Martel with ice and water calm me down. I used to mix liquor with cokewhen I was young, in the end it doesn't matter what I am drinking as I can't differentiate between them. Nowadays I learn to appreciate different type of liquor.

Wine is something I pick up a couples of years. Its like a piece of suit. Every little detail has to be observed when having wine. I like the aroma that stay in your mouth after drinking. Fruity wines are my favourite. To me; wine goes well with cheese . I love the adrenalin rushing out my body as I opened the bottle. Its like unwrapping a present from the wrapper.

The law says 'If you drink, don't drive. If you drive don't drink.' I always abide the law, I've never drive when drinking. I always park my car before I proceed to drink in the pub and finish my last drink before I collect my car.

End of the year

Finally found the time to setup my blog after so long. Its been a busy year, been thru ups and downs. Was single, attached and single again. There are plans which were scrapped and dreams which were shattered. Almost switched to another company but stayed and got promoted.

What shall I look forward to in the coming year?? Another promotion or a better oportunity outside?? Should I spread my wings and soar for greater height?? I might be shot down by hunters waiting out there, I might not make it back. Staying where I am now is consider a comfort zone but will I be able to adapt to the outside word again if I don't start flying?

Looking back this year, what have I achieve? I spend my days between office and pub. One mintue I am rushing for deadline, another minute I am drinking in the pub after Miss J walked out of my life. Alot of friends who are attached or married envy my kind of life, work hard play hard. No worries about life, thats what my friends calls it.

At least I accomplished one thing, I started this blog as I promised myself early this year.
