So, a question I hear often usually goes something along the lines of, "Are you sober?" Yes. I'm sober. In fact, I've been sober my entire college career...and I'm halfway done. I'll just give you a second to scoff, pray for me, roll your eyes, make fun of me, laugh or walk away from this article.

All of the above situations are real life responses I've received like, at least a hundred times in the past two years. I must think I'm better than you, right? I must be judging you right? I must be a lightweight, a prude, training to be a nun, or just a really big weirdo.

Ha, no, I'm none of those things, especially not a N.I.T. (nun in training) because I don't think my boyfriend would be cool with that (the whole married to Jesus thing), and I don't think a habit would flatter my curves.

I will applaud your drunken shenanigans, take really good pics of your night out for you (I'm the friend that cares enough to get the cute candids too), and I'll probably dance and laugh even harder than you. I'll be able to remind you of the funny stuff you said in the morning, and better yet, I'm not out to play Mom.

You wanna go 2007 Britney Spears on everyone at the bar tonight? Do you boo, I will be cheering you on from behind my cheese fries. Before I go on, let me reassure you:

College is fun for me, and I have a really, really good time.

Did I mention I'm also in a sorority?

Plot twist: I'm not miserable on the weekends — ever.

So, get to the point.

I'm 24/7 high energy. I'm basically a human chihuahua. I pre-game with coffee and I'm ready to be the life of da party.

Don't crucify me, but I don't need to be drunk to have a good time.

Drinking in college isn't for me. It isn't my thing right now. But, if it is your thing, awesome. I don't care one way or the other. My wallet is happy, my waistline is (kinda) happy(ish)...(cheese fries don't help), and honestly I would rather eat a loaf of bread than face the carbs in beer. Try putting cheese and butter in your beer...totally not as good as bread, but whatever floats your goat.

To recap in case you've missed it: I have never, not once, not for a second actually been drunk in college. Yes, I will dance on the rail with you, I'll scream and dance and make a really big fool of myself, and yes, people will ask me if I'm drunk. But nope. I'm not. In fact, shocker — I have chosen to not be drunk, but that's my personal choice.

HMU next time you need a ride home from somewhere or need a super cute set of pics taken from a good, high angle...I got chu'. I'm also totally down to run you through a drive through on the way home. Not being drunk doesn't make me any weirder, and I promise I don't think I'm better than you.

This is just me, and I'm cool with that, and honestly, almost all the time other people are too.
