Sober for October

Going sober for October. One of the hardest decisions I've ever made well following it through anyway. I've been on four sober nights out and lasted until 5AM grinding my sober ass into the ground pretty much. 

Here's my experience of going sober for October as a student. 

Student culture is surrounded by sex, alcohol, sticky night clubs, alcohol and more alcohol. My freshers week half of it was in October which killed me inside and meant I had to do half of my refreshers week sober. It was hard at pre-drinks smelling the cheap wine and cider. However, all my friends would wake up with hangovers and their heads hanging out of their arses. Where as I had a great night I could remember every second of it. It was cheap as hell, only paid for entry and taxis. I asked for water from the bars to keep me fueled up for grinding and slut dropping the night away. I also found out that I grind just as much sober. It's funny watching all the drunken characters men trying to pull girls way out of their league and those single girls just letting loose on a Saturday night. 

Of course I've been sober captain and mother hen looking after my little drunkards. This includes being kicked out of my own bed by my boyfriend who'd drank half a bottle of vodka and passed out on my bed, snoring so I had to sleep on the floor for a while. Until I threw pillows at him.

I've been drinking cherry coke and energy drinks at pre-drinks and house parties. It's cheap and gives me the sugar rush I need to keep going. Not only am I going to have saved myself a bomb this month, I've been able to genuinely enjoy the nights and keep myself going until 5AM. So long as there's good music playing I'm all good!

Only thing is my feet hurt so much from all the dancing & I will be getting smashed on the midnight of Halloween. Someone better look after me after all the looking after I've been doing!
