Its harder to drive here anyways, all those roundabouts and theory tests eugh.
Oh, roundabouts. We call those "rotaries" here. And I'll be able to drive fine around them, there's one at the end of our town, and MAss. actually has quite a few in general.

You know which law I hate? No drinking until you're 21. It should really be 18.
Nah. cause when you're eighteen you're still in High school so once kids get to high school they can get friends to buy drinks for em. Now, lots of kids don't start till college, which could be better or worse, depending.
On the other hand, most high schoolers I know also drink now anyways, hence the "freshman-getting-stomach-pumped" story on the first page. Maybe it's coz we're a screwed up suburban town.
Anyways, back to licenses, right now in Mass. you getyour permit at 16, and your license at 16 and a half (or six months after you get your permit, which amounts to the same thing most of the time) you take drivers' ed unless you're 18 or older, in which case you just need to do the 12 driving hours and go for your test. After you get your "under 21 license" which is the same basically but just looks different for liquor stores, then when under 18 you can't drive anyone not from your immediate family for six months and you have to obey the 12:00 curfew until you turn 18. ...I think that's all. They wanted to raise the permit age to 17 and license age to 17 and a half after the accident (link on the first page), but the bill hasn't been passed yet. Anyways, I got my permit yesterday, but I still might have to wait a year and a half to get my license. That would suck majorly, but it's not very likely.

haha, move to New Orleans. Cops here don't give a damn what you do. I love the NOPD. haha one of my friends (18-year-old) was stumbling down the street all our frats are on carrying a bottle of vodka and she saw a cop and tried to hide it under her coat...his response: "girl, I already saw that, you don't need to hide that from me. [to other cop] She must be a freshman.'
and for the first couple weeks of school in January, there were still National Guardsmen patrolling Nola so they'd be on the streets right around campus like that one with massive guns and having conversations with all these drunk college student (hence this picture, I'm on the left:)
woke up naked in a dumpster (almost a car) but my morning after song was "skag and bone man" cause thats what the naked man next to be sleeping with a mule was singing. anyways, long story short, im alive, and a little relieved im STD free.

Ain't it just a bitch? What a pain, well it's all a crying shame. Oh, what left to do but complain? Better find someone to blame.

So are yours. I love how you take off your pants when you watch Grays Anatomy.
Oh good god!
Lol. I was wondering what was going on.
Lol. I think it is lame they will let you smoke at age 18 but not drink.
That way you get a head start at poisoning your lungs before your liver.

It's even more dumb how you can die for your country before you can drink.

good times...this is such a great town.
That's the best morning after song ever. Just so you know. When you wake up hungover and naked in your car.
Hey folks, how've ya been?
I have no awkward morning after stories cause I ditch guys before they can go anywhere to be alone with me.
