The partying lie I told myself!
I thought I had my all planned. I knew which direction I was heading in and I knew how to get there.
You can be lulled into thinking that there is a path to follow, which should be followed in the correct way, it might look something like this:
✔ School or college – gain a collection of GCSEs/A-Levels
✔ Party hard-That’s what you do, right?
✔ University – obtain a brilliant degree
✔ Party hard-That’s what you do, right?
✔ More University – earm a Post Graduate Diploma, Masters or PHD if you’re a proper fancy pants
✔ Party hard-That’s what you do, right?
✔ Get an amazing well-paid job in a field related to your qualifications
✔ Party hard-That’s what you do, right?
✔ Move to a big city and share a house
✔ Party hard-That’s what you do right?
✔ Find the love of your life
✔ Settle down-but still party!
✔ Move in with the love of your life
✔ Get married-Huge party, obvs!
✔ Have kids-carry on with the party!
✔ Shall I go on??
Shall we remove the word PARTY from this list and replace it with ALCOHOL ‘cos we ALL know that’s what I mean!
All of this was (and is) totally socially acceptable and it’s only now when I look back on it I start to question it.
What about you… has your party life followed a path a bit like this one?
