3 years now...

Yeah !!! Hello, my name is Stefani and I am not an alcoholic. Today is my 3 year anniversary of an alcohol-free life. I had seen so many people with alcohol problems or just problems resulting from alcohol. I must admit it is easier for me to do this cause I cannot stand the smell of alcohol. But there was a time when I would drink everyday when I was in college. I cannot remember those days, but I will tell you that those days have made me who a I am today. The people I met, the situations I had to over come, the memories that still, somehow, reside in my brain. I would drink to escape reality, help my reality, hide my reality. I just got tired of waking up in the morning and apologizing or feeling guilty, or even not remembering. I have done alot of things so far that assisted me with escaping reality, I will not mention those things thou. That was all because I was new to the world when I got to college. Everyone drinks just about, when you go out with your friends they drink, when you go to a sport event people drink. It's everywhere. I like my reality, I am a good person and I want to be aware of what I say and do. I have always been a happy-go-lucky person, when I drink I LOVE EVERYONE. So yeah to me for fighting the crowd.
