I have gotten old. (ATM I'm slightly tipsy, since I've downed some punch and a bottle of bubbly, but the last time I drank with the intent of becoming drunk was about one and a half years ago.) My hangovers have become terrible, usually accompanied with migraines. That leads to unpleasant technicolor yawning, and the migraine gets worse from the pressure of the vomiting, and since I puke, I can't take my medicine (which is in tablet form). That plus the 'morkkis' is just too much for me nowadays. When I was at my peak, I could drink dudes twice my size under the table. Now I don't drink, only for the taste and company. My favorite drink is 2cl of amaretto with 2cl of Jameson on the rocks.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
