I can't even remember writing this! Vague recollection of deciding to surf net in the early hours. Sobered up now. The problem is, before I used to not worry about getting really drunk. Now I'm just paranoid for days after about the state of my liver
I just wish I could go out, have a good time and then not worry about it incessantly afterwards. Not that it does me much good, because two weeks later I do it again. But at least its not two days later like in undergrad days Want to be 19 again!!
I have found most people in my lab are binge drinkers, and it's hard not to drink too much and still socialise with them (I only drink a bit). I think there is a culture for getting really pissed amongst PhDs, probably because of the pressure. It is amusing when people in my lab sleep together when drunk though
