Dragonfly, Drinking, Drunk?
Went Dragonfly and Mono with a bunch of my colleagues last night. My Managing Director and a couple of GMs were there too. Initial plan was juz a little drinking session between a few of my usual drinking colleagues but I was informed in the afternoon that the whole gang was coming as well, after their country planning meeting.
Was contemplating not to go but had already promised my colleagues that I will be going so LL went. It is still not too bad overall but with the bosses around, cannot be too crazy. More so because juz heard from another GM during lunch that the MD doesn't like pple to drink uncontrollably and 'act' crazy. I ' ' act cos I always feel that those who gone crazy after drinks are to an extent still sober. I drink myself so I know. You can drink, get a little high and enjoy the company that you are with but if you start acting gung-ho, be very loud (so that the whole world looks at u) and create trouble, then that (to me) is off limit.
I remember walking down Clarke Quay on a Saturday night and I saw this girl who was dead drunk. She had a gal fren and 2 guys frens with her but they juz left her lying on the ground. They were juz sitting around her. One of them was even puking right next to her!! The drunk girl should have known better than to get herself dead drunk. As for the frens, they should have juz sent the drunk fren home instead of letting her lying on the ground. This is BAD, VERY BAD!!!
I am not so innocent myself. I was almost dead drunk 4 times (out of which 3 times was my birthday :P) since I started clubbing 12 years ago. I was lucky. Each time, I have trusted frens and families to make sure that I arrived home in one piece. I have since stopped celebrating my birthday in such a 'big' scale (old liao ma, dun need to celebrate liao) and I have cut down my drinking so much that I admit that I am a lousy drinker now.
I wouldn't dare say that I will not get drunk again but I can boldly say that I will not be lying on the floor like the drunk girl cos I have trusted and caring pple around me. : )
