Goddamn, did I start this thread? This could be my own experience word for word (except I'm a few months older than you, ryborg, sorry  ). But yeah, I'm one of the few people my age, being 19, that don't spend all of their fucking time partying and getting drunk. Also, I have the misfortune of working a shit job that people think that teenagers typically work at (dishwasher at Cracker Barrel *pukes*) and alot of my coworkers take the "party animal" label to its limits (I tried to get a relationship going with a server there, and it turned out that she was hugeass drinker/boozer, totally different from me. Needless to say, it didn't go anywhere). The whole concept of partying and drinking at college and not giving a shit about grades is beyond retarded, not to mention that an underage drinking or DUI charge could toss my intended career (law enforcement) out the window. Sadly, as a result, I don't have much of a social life outside of 3 or 4 friends at the most, seeing as most social interaction centers around drinking, but whatever. Anyway, I was just posting to let you know that I can emphasize with you.
