Oasis - Lyla

Well, North Texas dropped pretty hard at home to a mediocre Tulsa team. Peg another out of conference loss up on ol' Darrell "high school coach" Dickey. I think his record in OOC is either 3-21 or 3-22 now. Hooray.

Tailgating before the game wasn't bad, even if it was 212 degrees outside. Met some people during the game and stayed right to the bitter end. Got home, unloaded all the stuff from the truck, took a shower and got the hell out to the bars, which was quite a bit of fun. Science says that alcohol is a depressant rather than a stimulant, and I disagree to an extent. While drinking alone I'm sure will definitely make you feel the depressant part of it, when you're out with friends and having a good time, it's totally different. Alcohol is more like a mood amplifier. If you're in a good mood, you'll have a great time; vice versa if you're in a bad mood.

Where it is a depressant, rather than a stimulant is how your body reacts. What I mean is, that I can feel everything starting to relax whenever I drink. It's not that I'm a tense person, or that I drink regularly, but that feeling is nice from time to time. It's like letting out a burst of stress in one night. If you're fortunate enough not to have hangovers, like me, you wake up the next day refreshed and feeling like a million bucks.

I needed that feeling after these first couple weeks of real schoolwork, coupled with a little bit of stress that had built up, and the fact that Tulsa made my school's football team look like they were new to the game. That's all for now. I may or may not keep doing the fall preview thing, we'll see.
