My Birthday

Hello. I turn 22 tomorrow...no big deal. I certainly will be glad to get out of the 21 category. 21 seems to mean to most that you're an alcoholic, at certain parts of the year...I think this did describe me quite well. 21 was a hard year, health-wise, emotionally, mentally. I always look at my birthday as a time of reflection/personal renewal, and a time to celebrate. How will I better myself within the next year? How can I improve my relationships, etc so that I may be a more whole individual?
I had a great time celebrating my life Saturday with a bunch of good friends. It was like a 21st birthday lots of drinks, dancing, food. I enjoyed myself greatly...however, I wasn't treating my body well. The lack of sleep, large consumption of alcohol/greasy, salty foods has left me wornout, broken out like a teenager, and unable to focus. Boy, I have really progressed this year...
It's discouraging to recognize that poisoning your body can be so much fun...it's so hard to change habits...everyone has habits...How do you feel about drinking? What are it's pros/cons? How will you change at the start of another year. I know what I need to do...
