nicola_maire

i have a theory.
do you ever think maybe we feel the way we do becasue england has this whole thing on clubbin drinkin social thing>? and inless your part of it you feel left out?
its known thing about 70% of our nation is in a club on friday nights gettin wankered. it used to upset me that i wernt really into that. but nor is the other 30% i sapose, but how do u feel about it?#
i also think englan is a very 'follow the trend place' wheere if u differnt, ur just wierd, like if u dont drink, you not fun, those sorta labels? what u think?

Nah not really to be honest, i mean a lot of people seem to develop social anxiety before there into going out and getting nailed.And for me personaly, i use to enjoy just chilling getting smashed at mate's with a group of people who all knew each other, rather than going up town and dealing with idiots and mither which sadly 9/10 times would happen up town.

yeh i sapose. i think alot of it is on the drink in england. i just think its stupid people have to be under a drug to get along and have a good time, knowing that i ent you doing all that stuff, its the drink/drug. dont get me wrong, i ,ove to go out with the girls time to time, but not religously.
maybe its just me n my opinions, i just think its sorta lame

I used to,now i dont care and i belive by not going to these clubs and get wasted in the long run ill have more money and it makes sense not to go,sure people go to socialise but spending all that money just to wake up the next day and not even remember it,sure people have called me strange for not wanting to go clubbing,or take drugs or what ever but this is my life i make the decisions.

I do think that there is a certain amount of pressure in England to be very sociable and outgoing. It seems to me that to be in with the crowd you do have to go clubbing and partying and drinking and be a bit of an extrovert which I am the complete opposite of Laughing

Or otherwise people tend to judge you as being a bit different or something of an outsider.
