February 23, 201016 yr Hello Irene, i'm more than likely to scare you after a few days. I'm obsessed with squirrels and it gets creepy after a while. Back to nicknames: I've been trying to get people to call me Super Squirrel but squirrel boy and the "I'm a nerd" kid have stuck. xD
February 23, 201016 yr SS... don't you realize? You're not allowed to give yourself your own nicknames. It's against the Nickname Rules of Etiquette. :laughingsmiley:
February 23, 201016 yr I'm legal now! Whoo hoo for me! I can legally drink! Happy birthday! That's exciting. Do you have any special plans? On my 21st birthday, I went to Olive Garden with my family and got a strawberry daiquiri. But then again, I'm not a big drinker at all. I've probably drank more since I got married (8 months ago) then I did the entire 3 years before that, that I was 21. :laughingsmiley:
February 23, 201016 yr When I turned 21, I didn't think it was that big of deal. No one in my family, except my sister (occasionally) drinks. Right before I turned 21, I found my best friend was diagnosed with diabetes. So she couldn't drink very often. And I'm a social drinker. I like to have 1 drink, with friends. Or for a special occasion. That's it.
February 23, 201016 yr even though I'm not at the age where I can drink yet, I really not think I ever want to. I mean I know I still have awhile to think about this I just don't really agree with it. Though that's just my opinion and anyone who wants to drink I'm fine with its just me. *shrugs*
February 23, 201016 yr Yeah, I can understand that. The only time I mind it, is when people drink too much, or they're obnoxious.
February 23, 201016 yr I've been hung around people that drink much. The only people I've been around that do, is my aunt and uncle. They like beer. But they've never had too much, that I've seen.
February 23, 201016 yr A couple times I've seen my parents drink a little to much, but they usually just went to bed. But most of the time it's just a glass or two.
February 23, 201016 yr My parents don't drink. Neither really like the taste. And my mom is diabetic.
February 23, 201016 yr diabetes runs in my family, but they're all also alcoholics. Really makes me the rebel i guess lol
February 23, 201016 yr Diabetes is in my family too. My great-grandmother, and my grandmother had it. (My mom's side) My mom has it. And my grandfather has it. (Dad's side)
February 23, 201016 yr My mom's dad has it, I know my great grandmother had it, and my mom is watching her sugar so that she doesn't get it.
February 23, 201016 yr I've been tested a billion times, but so far I'm okay. Though I do actually have low blood sugar.
February 23, 201016 yr o that's good, ya I think they've tested )only when I'm getting a blood test for something else already) and I've always been fine
February 23, 201016 yr I get really shaky and weak when I've gone too long without eating. When I lived at home with my parents, I probably tested my blood sugar more than my mom did.
February 23, 201016 yr I don't think I've ever gotten really shaky when I haven't eaten for a while, though I do faint if I get really dehydrated, but I'm supposed to grow out of it
February 24, 201016 yr Wow. I have bad habits when it comes to eating. I'll go two or three days without eating anything but I don't get shaky. Sometimes it makes me a little cranky though. But I couldn't go that long without drinking something. I'm thirsty all the time.
February 24, 201016 yr I'm not a regular eater, even though I need to be. Like on work days, I get up, no breakfast (Maybe a glass of chocolate milk), and go to work. (I'm at work for 12 hours) While at work, I don't usually eat. I snack here and there. I keep a box of cereal that I snack on when I feel shaky. Then I just drink a bottle of water all day. Then I go home at 7pm, and my husband cooks a nice dinner. I go wayyyy too long between eating.
February 24, 201016 yr I usually wake up maybe eat some cereal, go to school, eat lunch while there, come home have a snack, do homework, go to swim practice, eat dinner. I guess you would say that pretty normal *shrugs*
February 24, 201016 yr I eat better on my days off of work. But it's too big of a hassle to mess with it at work. So I get by.
February 24, 201016 yr @Drinking topic Happy B-day! ^^ And my freind when he comes to school every morning he acts like he's either drunk or high. He aqquired the nickname "Stoner" from this. xD And my family has diabetes in it as well. And i'm messed up with my eating habits. All fruit one day, nothing but a handful of cheetos and a peice of chocolate the next day, a cheeseburger and overload of soda for breakfast day after that... xD
February 24, 201016 yr my family has like nothing running in it. and my dad stopped drinking, so he's hard to be around ಠ_ಠ
