Hello beautiful people!
Happy weekend!
I know you're having a nice time with the weekend, keep enjoying馃憤.
This is my entry to the Hive Leaners community's contest. It's all about that ONE THING I don't find myself doing even though everyone around me are doing it.
Before now it used to be football leagues, I mean I don't fancy watching anything league such as champions league, premier league, la Liga etc. when it comes to Football, I usually dwell on WorldCup, Nations Cup and Olympics. But the story has changed, if I have the capacity right now, I would purchase tickets for everyone here to have a live show in the champions league鉁岋笍.
What's that one thing I don't do but others do?

It's alcoholism!
I know you're wondering because actually, it's not everyone that's into alcohol. My own case is totally different, I don't even take a sip as "everyone" does.
With the current state of the world especially in Nigeria, almost everyone takes alcohol even though they don't take it to the extent of getting disturbed. I'm not referring to the little percentage of alcohol in soft drinks, I mean the real alcoholic drinks that a full 35cl bottle could spark up some reaction in the body of a softhearted fellow.
I know a lot of people that are not fully into alcoholism but they take these "bottles" once in a while for many reasons such as;
I don't know where they generated all these facts from.
In my part of the world, guys that don't take alcohol are seen as weakling which I'm proudly one of them馃槃. I've been to so many ceremonies with ladies and when it's time for drink I'd go for soft drinks while the lady would be enjoying the alcoholic drinks. And you know what? mockery becomes the order of the day, but the best thing is that I don't feel anything, it's who I am and I love it that way.
Why I don't take alcoholic drinks.
The reason I don't take alcoholic drink it's very far from what you're thinking. I don't take alcoholic drinks because it's just something I don't like.
It's not because some religions are against it, NO! It's just something I don't like.
It's not because I'm sick or I'm on drugs, NO! It's just something I don't like.
It's not because I'd get get drunk at the end, NO! I might win you when we are placed on a competition.
But what's good in alcohol?
I never seize to ask this question, most of the alcohol drinks that I know are bitter. What joy do people derive taking bitter things?(guys are gonna attack me now馃檮). I know this is where the common connotes "man and alcohol" comes in. They'll say; "A real man is hard and takes hard things, so anyone that can't take hard/bitter thing is not yet a man." Crazy indeed!
I have a female friend that once gave me her reasons for taking alcohol, she said she takes alcohol whenever she's down with her emotions especially when a man breaks her heart. She said alcohol comforts her at that particular moment but something happens at the end, which is uncomfortability especially when she takes it in excess. She gets staggering 馃檮.
I'm not against those that take alcoholic drinks, infact I'm surrounded by a lot of friends on this circle. Maybe I'll change one day.
