That shot of alcohol has about as many calories as a can of coke.
edit: or more. Depends on the alcohol. US "servings" of alcohol go off of the amount of ethanol, an amount which is over 100 calories. If you pour yourself a shot of something strong enough that it is more than one serving, that's going to be more calories. Get something with sugar as well as ethanol? Even more.

I don't know your situation but I would probably put off thinking about buying a house until well after grad school, at least a couple years. Too much flux right now, to say nothing of how all your money is going to tuition right now.

So wait, you're planning to pay for grad school and a car and a mortgage all at the same time? Seriously, wait for at least one of the first two to be taken care of before thinking about the third.

true, but my line of thinking is that i don't drink as much as i would drink soda in everyday situations. i could try the diet i suppose

well, i owe only a little more than 3000 on the car. but you're right in some respects, i haven't even thought about how much i would have to start paying back per month for my student loans if i decide i'm finished. the upside is that i have a job in the field i'm studying in already, and i've been there a year and all signs point to it being steady for a while.
Drill King:
I don't like rape jokes.
So I've been thinking about this a lot more in my post-drunkfuckedupohmygodIloveyouguys state yesterday. And I actually want to make a more serious list.
- Work on mental health issues. I have a lot of things in my past that I haven't dealt with very well, and I'm going to try and tackle them now that I have a good support system of friends to help.
- Become even more active with student/queer/anarcho/etc activism. My city has a lot of organized and personal activism stuff going on. I've gotten a lot more involved this year but I'd like to become even more active.
- GET WORK ON REAL MAN CALENDAR. This year I was involved in organizing and getting a grant for a 12 page full colour calendar focusing on the various forms of queer masculinities, ranging from cis-gendered straight men, to transmen, to genderqueer folks, etc. I was really excited about this but between scheduling and the fact we only got confirmation a month before the new year we had no time. But I want to get this out for next year as a fundraiser for TRANSaction.
- Make zines. Namely start more work on enthusiastic consent and gender zines. Start zine on my experience with an ED. Release last years unfinished things. Seriously this one.
- Sleep with less dinks. I need sex. Like, absolutely. I have probably slept with an odd 20ish people this year. To a point where when I go too long I make bad decisions on who to sleep with. This year I want to only sleep with people who a: deserve it b: will make me feel good c: don't make me feel panicked and disoriented.
- Have orgasms. This might seem trite and usual for folks but in relation to mental health issues this is a thing I am learning to do.
- find partner to practice this with. I really need a supportive sexual partner to try to get through some things so. Also would probably solve problem of sleeping with people I don't know 100%
-lose weight in a healthy way. Don't give in to old habits. Eat healthier.
- be a good student. Don't flunk out. Work hard. Become better. Make art.
- Be a better daughter and sister. On top of my step dad's cancer my mom is going through tests for a condition she has had her whole life that could be quite serious now. With my sister on the west coast, I really want to make sure my family stays close because I love them and need to stop being a selfish jerk.
I feel really good about this year, like, really really good. I have always had tragic and/or terrible new years eves and I had a wonderful one this year because I feel like more and more I am finding a place in the world and figuring out who I am, so I feel like I can really change some major bad habits. Awful New Years Evee Curse: Broken. Now just gotta get the rest of 'em.
