Hey guys a bit off topic but i m fucking spun to death and would like tell the story of my trip to australia as european backpackers with turned in a drug fueled road trip do you think it' appropriate to post it here? I mean in the australian discussion?
That's more like blog material, or maybe the social discussion? AusDD isn't really for stories unless they have some sort of HR message.
Mr Blonde, I'd have you pegged as lactose intolerant
I was lucky I guess I went to a private boys college and we were allowed to drink in year 12 at some school functions. "Pass the port" at important dinners, a beer to celebrate the end of the rugby season. It didn't stop us smashing it hard at private parties (or drug use being rampant), but there was a level of responsiblity given to your own actions that a lot of kids don't face until they are suddenly out of school today.
Ha ha, not lactose intolerant but I just can't stand cheese. Not a single slice. :D
I'll admit that I am not a fan of alcohol and maybe my personal experiences with those under the influence lead me to think more readily that harsh measures would be a good idea. I do realize though that just because I have plenty of negative experiences with drunks, doesn't mean everyone else is and education and an effort to alter the drinking culture would do a lot better then more regulations.
Sounds like your private school was OK, ours certainly didn't allow that but I guess given my own behavior and that of others they probably didn't think we deserved any reward.
