Oh God - I am sorry that you had to have experienced such a painful extraction of wisdom teeth. It hurts just imagining the situation. Is there some condition you have that makes you resistant/unable to have anesthesia, if you don't mind my asking? And I still can't believe you had an ulcer in your eye!
I don't go around going "TEETOTALER PRIDE, yo!" although I do find it frustrating when there's this default assumption that all college students drink, and that the ones who don't are socially deficient or religious nutters. In the LA area, too, it can be more extreme. It helps that quite a few of my USC friends don't generally drink although it can be a little tiresome when you're the designated "make sure I don't do anything I'd regret the next morning" person. I've sometimes wondered if I had gone to a different college if my experience with and views on alcohol would be different.
