Drinking Habits
Binge drinking is the act of consuming excessive amounts of alcohol for a short period of time. In the United States of America, it is defined as drinking of 5 or more drinks, within a very short period of time by men and drinking 4 or more drinks within a short period of time by women for not less than one incident in a period of two weeks. On the other hand heavy binge drinking is recurrent of more than three such incidents in a period of two weeks.
Since man is a social being and always has an urge of trying out new things and also overindulging in doing something in order to be regarded as unique and strong by his or her mates, I also one day became a victim of such circumstances as far as binge drinking is concerned. It was my brothers birthday party, he was staying in the neighboring town and it was almost three year since we had time together and so we had missed each other so much and his birthday party offered a good chance for us to meet with him and have fun together. When the day came by, I border a bus to his town which was almost 150 kilometers from our home and when I arrived he welcomed me with a lot of joy and he told me of how life had become better on his side and about the promotion at the work place he had got two months ago so he told me that apart from celebrating the birthday he was also going to celebrate on how thing had became better on his side.
We boarded his car to his apartment and he brought some snacks and letter prepared lunch then we took time with him to tell stories of our good old days when we used to be young and the funny things we deed together and how things have really changed when we later transformed and become mature and responsible adults. His party was arranged at a famous hotel in town known as Blue Springs and he had invited his friends and work colleagues to the party which commenced at 5pm that evening. There were pretty ladies amongst the people who attended the party and after my brother had told us about why he had organized the party he later on officially opened the party event and everybody stood out to dance. People danced freely with each other as they sipped away the alcoholic drinks which were served in plenty. As for me I realized that at the drinking menu was my favorite all time drink and so I took more time drinking and drinking as other people slightly sipped there drinks and continued having fun by dancing.
After almost five hours of intense drinking which was characterized by mixing of my favorite brands of beer and liquor, I stated to experience signs of going into stupor. The fun which I was having while still enjoying the initial pints of my drink faded away and I started filling as if I would go into a convulsion and collapse at that particular moment my brother realized what I was experiencing and him and two other men took me out to the balcony of the restaurant and opened loose my collar although it was cold and fresh out there this did not solve a think as I progressed into a convulsion and found my self in a hospital the following morning with extreme hangovers which I was not even comfortable with.
