where abouts in the caribean did you go ???

andy

It was part of a cruise. We went to Blue Lagoon Island, the best (and most expensive) nap I have ever had... in a hammock on the beach, underneath palm trees singing in the breeze... I was out like a light. I couldn't go swimming because of my braids (http://www.geocities.com/syntheticjeso/funky.html if you can see it), and I just chilled in the hammock all afternoon. MAN it was nice, and now I want to get rid of my bed and just have a hammock...

i know what you mean sipping a pina colada sun beating down the waves crashing gently on the powder white sandy beach ohhhhhh i can just picyure it !!!!!!!

andy

Yeah, except for the Pina Colada... I'm not quite old enough yet ^_~

you can have a virgin colada (no alcohol)for the youngster
i'm sure you've had some alcohol??

andy

Nope, never had any alcohol. That is odd, I know, when it really would be quite easy to go get drunk. I just have no desire to touch any alcohol.

And yeah, I had a virgin strawberry daiquiri on the boat, it was delicious.

no hangovers lol

you have those strange age laws for drinking ?

over here its 18 is it 21 or something like that?i'm not sure!!

andy

Yeah, it is 21 over here. Such an arbitrary number. At 20 you are not mature enough to vote, but *magically* when you turn 21 you can go get smashed into smithereens... that's dumb, but then again that's just my opinion.

so how old r u then jesso ?
if u dont mind me asking

our laws r pretty low like ;
drinking 18
voting 18
smoking 16
sex 16
leaving home 16
marriage 16
and so the list goes on

andy

I am 17.

Our laws:

drinking 21
voting 18
smoking 18
sex 18
leaving home 18
marriage 18
driving 16

Soooo... right now I can.... let's see, I can drive. Yup, that's it... Oh well, don't want to drink, smoke, get married, have sex, or leave home (well, not till college). Nothing important to vote on for a few years... So I guess driving is good enough for now ^_~

its soo strange how our laws differ i can remember going to florida and all iwanted was a shandy which is half lemonade and half lager and i had to show ID i suppose we take it for granted over here i mean i was getting served in pubs when i was 13 but i am over 6 ft so i probably looked a lot older

andy

Yeah, some places are more stubborn about ID than others. Like I said above, if I wanted to, I could go out and get drunk with little trouble, if I knew where to go.

ive been there done that bought the t-shirt ,i mean you dont have to get drunk out of your head to enjoy yourself!

andy

For reals. I have more fun just sitting around chilling with my friends than actually going out doing stuff, so I don't need to get drunk. The unfortunate thing is, many people think they do...

i found that out when i was younger so i'm more of a social drinker now. or when i'm on holiday yeah man iree

andy

I have seen the effects on my friends... that's all I need. Heh heh, I let others make the mistakes for me. ^_^

its funny watching others when there drunk

andy

Eh, sometimes I guess, but since I tend to look down on the whole thing, I don't find much amusement in it. But then again, that's just me.

no its when they wake up the next morning andcant remember what they did you just wind them up its sooooooooooooooooooo funny


andy

Heh heh, that's mean....... I like it ^_^
