The Hangover

…am I just hung over you? Or am I just hungover? Ke$ha: Hungover

Last night myself and my good friend Josh went to the usual Wednesday night entertainment at our student union that is Bop. The plan was to go and get very drunk and try and pull. Not that there was a much of a chance of us pulling though I like to think we did. A girl danced up to Josh and a different girl informed me her friend wanted my phone number. If I put it like that we sound fairly successful. However, I should mention that the first girl was going some weird drunken mocking and when I headed over to see the second girl’s friend the friend informed me she actually had a boyfriend. So that was complete nonsense. The trouble is you can never trust a drunk person. Not a drunk stranger anyway.

The getting drunk part of our plan however was a success. We quickly consumed copious amounts of alcohol and I’m not sure of exactly what I had but it included several jagerbombs and some weird cocktail which was blue. Goodness knows what was actually in it! Fortunately we managed to stay safe and not do anything too stupid. There was some drunk dancing and little things became hysterically funny for no obvious reasons. It seemed that no matter how drunk I got I couldn’t gain the confidence to go and talk to a girl I really liked but it turns out she has a boyfriend anyway so it wouldn’t have got me anywhere anyway.But apart from that we both had an excellent night.

Unfortunately today I suffered for my good night. This was partly due to a lack of sleep. Yesterday I was awake between the hours of 6AM and 3AM this morning. I then had to get up at 8AM this morning so I didn’t exactly gets tons of sleep. However it was the alcohol that was the worst thing. Though I didn’t feel sick my head hurt and my stomach was suffering dearly from some of the things I consumed last night. Let’s just say I don’t envy the job our cleaner had this morning…

I had to drag myself to an IT session, one known for it’s tedious nature. So I sat there feeling the worse for where attempting to listen to a less-than-exciting lecturer. It was a relief that I could escape into my computer screen. There was one highlight of the session though when we were shown a website where children can compete with each other in doing calculations and spellings. I had a good and managed to thrash some small children from across the world. It will be a good learning experience for them to lose. And I felt somehow good winning, even if I was only beating little kids.

Fortunately for me we finished really early so I came home and slept for a few hours. When I awoke I was confused and thought that I had slept in really late and had missed the day’s lectures. It took me a good few minutes before I realised that I had just had a nap. My hangover didn’t seem to have got better during this sleep so I thought it would be a good idea to walk it off. It wasn’t. I put my headphones on and virtually staggered all the way through Winchester with my wobbly walking meaning I could barely navigate my way through crowds and how I managed to cross all the roads I have no idea! When I arrived home I was actually worse if anything.

The hangover finally wore off by about 6PM but even now at midnight I still don’t feel 100%. In some ways it’s the worst hangover I have ever had. At least I wasn’t violently sick this time but it has lasted for a ridiculously long time. And that kids, is the just one negative effect that alcohol gives you. Be careful minions and stay safe!
