Better than being Japanese and not being able to breakdown alcohol properly. I can hold it while drinking but I'll have a hangover the next day, even after a few beers.

I had a bad experience about 10 years ago, and quit drinking, smoking, etc, all at the same time, for about 3 years. Decided since I turned into a nervous wreck, I needed something to occasionally take the edge off, I'd start drinking again. I always loved Bombay and tonic, with a big fat lime, so I made friends with them again. The first month or so, I was getting wasted on 1 drink- I thought something was seriously wrong- then my body got used to them. 7 years and many bottles later, I mix them about 50/50 gin/tonic, and can drink several that way before getting too stupid.

Yeah ... I'm Russian too .... and when I drink vodka I need to wait too long to get drunk ... even without eating anything ...

but at New Year's eve party I drank about 7 glasses of champagne, and then washed it all with few glasses of RUM ... I will never in my life do that again :| ... and don't recommend it to anyone : ) ... I was sick in about a minute after I drunk 3rd glass of RUM ... and I was sick until the middle of the next day ... did that suck ...

I've learned my lesson ... never mix anything with bubbles with something like RUM ... I should've drunk some vodka, but they didn't have any :(

At least you have hot lesbians. A band called Tatu has a really great English album out and they are two really cute Russian girls that "love" each other.

I've heard a few songs from Tatu, but had no idea they were lesbians. ;)

I like the Russian version of Ya Soshla s uma, much better than the English remake. :)

I dunno what it is...but as soon as alcohol comes in, it goes out.

And not from where it came. I get the runs.

Drinking is bad for me.
