Blog# 16: Alcohol and You


It has been said that when you're under the influence of alcohol, the alcohol starts doing your thinking for you. What is meant by that? Are any of you tempted to use alcohol? Why or why not?

108 comments:

  1. When you are drunk, you're brain does not function properly. Alcohol makes you hallucinate and not be yourself. Like on reality TV, you see everbody acting drunk, and not being themselves. No, I am not influenced my alcohol, becuase I dont want to act all crazy- like.

  2. What that means is... well... it is sort of complicated to say. Is kind of makes it hard to think for yourself. You know how you are supposed to think before you act? Well, that makes you act before you think. I am not, in the least bit, tempted to use alchohol. That would entrap me into wanting more and more, until you become addicted and become an alchoholic. My cousin's aunt is an alchoholic, and she is the nicest person! She just made some not very smart mistakes and BOOM! She got the "disease". I don't really know why alchoholism is considered a disease when you bring it on yourself. Oh well... I am not tempted by alchohol because I am only in middle school, and it is illegal. I don't want to get a criminal record before becoming a teenager! I actually plan to be a good person and never break the law. It is wrong to break the law, and it would leave me feeling guilty! But I do plan to drink alchohol every once in a while on a special occasion, but definitely not every day.

  3. What is meant by that is when you were drinking alcohol it takes your brain over! it doesn't let you think for yourself! No, I'm not tempted to use or drink alcohol! The reason why i am not tempted to drink because i wouldnt want to be wasted and do stuff that i would definitely regret the next day! i think that, that would be a stupid thing to do!!!!

  4. It means that alcohol goes to your brains and it takes over it. Im not tempted to do alcohol because im better than doing alcohol and it is really bad for you.

  5. When you drink alcohol, you're brain starts acting "fuzzy". Your senses aren't normal, and you could hallucinate. But it depends on how much alcohol you drink. If you have, lets say, on bottle of beer, you won't get drunk. It's a different story if you drink five bottles in one day. But alcohol isn't always bad. Well, I don't want to say its good, but it..... ok I really don't nkow how to put this. Lets say you're in your car, and you're drunk. Now lets say that you run into the car in front of you because you didn't see the red light. Who would get more hurt? The driver in front of you, or you? You would think that it would be you, but that's where you're wrong. This is where alcohol comes in handy. If you're in a car crash, it's better to bbe relaxed than not. But that isn't always easy when you see a car hurtling at you at seventy mils an hour.
    oh look, a car is coming straight for me. I'm just gonna lay back and relax. Yeah right.

    Darn, I'll finish later. Sorry :P

  6. I would never smoke in the influence of others, people should not do drugs. I hope in the future people dis-continue drugs. I hope this happens. I wish that they will stop drug use. I am not tempted at all ~elizabeth andress

  7. I think that the way people drink today is a little better then a few years ago but theres still problems on the road and stuff and what i think about the "doing the thinking for you" is exactly what alchohol does...like what Mr Rudman said about i forget what there called but they would get hoped of on helusinigetics and jump of the ship to early with 200 pounds on there back.
    im sure quite a few people are temted but the fact is for some people if you drink alchohol you cant stop drinking then you have a problem and No iv never ounce been tempted because im like my grandfather...

  8. Well what that means is that the alcohol is getting control of your brain and you go out of control. I am not tempted to use alcohol. I am not tempted to use alcohol because I have responsible friends. I also have straight parents. Ana Castro *****

  9. Its a funny thing that in 8 to 9 years we will be "legally" elidgible to drink alcohol. And yet we are talking about it now. I think that everybody is tempted to have a drink because at new years frankly everbody does. And plus 1 drink is not bad. But when you start to chug that heinekein keg and drinking shots by the bottle is when you should start to worry and stop.

  10. A)It means that alcohol makes you do things that normally you would have never ever even-if-your-life-depended-on-it do. It takes over your mind and body.

    B)So if you read the above you know that I am going to answer this question truthfully. Yes, I have been tempted to try alcohol. Shots.
    C)Why? B/C of peer pressure.

  11. That mean that you do act before you think or in other words you don't think about what your doing. No I am not tempted because I know that if i do drink that I can wrong decisions. Drinking is not only unsafe but unhealthy, thats why I don't feel tempted to drink.

  12. To much alcohol messes with your mind!!!! That's what I think it means because the alcohol will not make you remember what you said, did, or anything!!!! No, I'm not tempted to use alcohol for my stress or any reason. You guess may think this is stupid or something but it matters how I'm stressed. Like if I'm angry stressed I go in my batting cage in the basement and hit softballs to get that anger out of me. But if I'm upset or something like that I write poetry. Like this is one I didn't write to long ago.
    Star of My Life
    A look from you is as blinding as the sun,
    As stunning as your eyes I lose myself in.
    A look from youis as pure as the clear blue sky,
    When I'm with you

    Every minute I'm not around you,
    I feel like I left something behind.
    Every time I'm not looking at you,
    I feel like I'm blind.

    A smile from you is as electrifying as the moon,
    A smile from you is as calming as the stars in the sky.


    ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!! That's what I do, just felt like sharing!!!!!

  13. I personally think that any kid underage should not drink alchohol. When it says, "alcohol starts doing the thinking for you" I think it means you can't stop once you started. Kids get tempeted to use alcohol by peer pressure or they feel that it's "cool". When your of age that's when you have the freedom to drink, but not now, not as a kid.

  14. It is meant that when you drink alcohol you have no control over yourself. You have no idea what your doing. You could have some but then when your done you'll wake up and be like what just happened? You would have no idea what you did. I don't think I've been tempted to use Alcohol.

  15. When i think of the quote "the alcohol starts doing your thinking for you" it means to me that your not thinking before you act. Some people drink because they think it's cool or they see other people doing it. I have never been tempted by alcohol because it can ruin your future and your reptuation. I aso think it's wrong for people our age to be drinking illegally.

  16. It is said that when your drunk it starts to get to your head. On tv it shows that people dont know what they are saying they cant walk properly and they just go a little insane the alcohol starts to get to them and they don't whats happening. no not at all am i tempted to use alcohol at all.

  17. I think when they say alcohol has control over you it means that you can't think corectly and you are really "out of it." I'm not tempted to drink alcohol because i had wine before which is alcohol and it tasted like poop. Michael Romanchak

  20. Wow. I don't think i should do my blog in recess anymore. I need much more time. I kind of started my blog, and now i'm finishing it. But the problem is, I didn't put my name on the other one. Ouch. Well, mine was the one with the car accident scenario. I hope you know what i'm talking about. i'll fill you in.

    I was talking about how alcohol can help you in some situations. If you get in a car crash and you are drunk and the person you crashed into isn't, they will probuably be more hurt than you. This is because you're bopdy gets hurt more when you are tense. It's pretty hard to be relaxed when a car is speeding right towards you. But, bear with me, alcohol makes you relax alot. You get where i'm going with this? The alcohol would make you relax, and that is why you wouldn't get hurt as easily.
    Am i influenced by alcohol. Please, NO WAY. I have one funny alcohol stories I want to tell, if you aren't bored to death already.
    One day I was sitting on my couch watching TV. I hear the front door open, and my dad walks in with a pack of rootbear, and a bottle of beer. While i'm in the other room watching TV, he pours us each a glass. His was filled with beer, and mine was filled with rootbeer. I went and reached for a glass. As you all know, rootbeer looks exactly like real beer, so i think you can guess which one i accidentally chose. That's right. I picked up the glass and took a big gulp of beer. UCK! I actually spewed it all over the table. My dad was laughing like crazy! Well, now that i'm done reminicing,(is that how you spell it???), i should probuably go eat dinner.

  21. What they mean is that when your drunk or under the influnce you aren't your self. I am never tempted to use alcohol for a so called "good time" and I know I probally never will be. When you are drunk you ask 100% different. I believe all of us should stand together and say no to liquor and any other alcoholic beverage. It's simply not worth it.

  23. I thin the saying is saying that alcohol will start to take over your live by making you addicted. Also when I look at the picture it looks like to me a young girl drinking alcohol with her pretty pink plastic necklace and then her when shes older, and still addicted. I would never be under the influence of alcohol and I dont think my peers would be ether, but if they were I would try and help them get away from it instead of still hanging out with them being put in the influence. I would never put my mental growth or physical health in danger with alcohol even if my life deepened on it, i would rather die then be know as the girl whos the under age drinker with no education from the alcohol killing away at her brain.

  24. When you are stressed some people think drinking alcohol illegally is ok. It's not, alcohol sometimes makes you think differently. It makes you think that some decisions you know are wrong you do any way. I've not been tempted to drink alcohol.

  28. Alcohol is a terrible thing for your body. When you become drunk, your body controls the decisions you make. It has a bad long term effect on your body. Then you become addicted to the alcohol. In no way am I tempted to drink. I am aware of the dangers.

  31. When it says” the alcohol starts doing your thinking for you” it means that when you have been drinking your brain doesn’t work properly and you don’t make your own decisions. No, I am not tempted this is because I don’t want to ruin my life by getting drunk and making the wrong decisions that are best for me. I want to live a healthy good life and try to make the smartest decisions for me.

  34. I think what's meant by "the alcahool does the thinking for you" is that you don't make good choices or think about what would happen if you do certain things while you're drunk. I am not tempted to use alcahol at any time except for in church because I'm too young and it would mess up my growth and stuff like that. I would only start to drink when I'm of age.

  36. Alcohol is a bad thing todo to your body and is bad for you at this age. It will mess with your physical or mental actions. You can become addicted mentaly which will make you crave it all the time. Plus physicaly it can make you dizzy, loopy and make you say things out of the ordinary. You can also lose your balence and fall and really hurt yourself. I am aware of alcohol and will not attempt drinking it anytime soon.

  37. What it means is that when your friends start to drink alchohol the alchohol gets to you. Like saying your best frined comes up to and he/she is drinking at a party, he/she is like hey lets drink! Or drink with me! I mean that the alcohol is getting to you peer pressure is taking over you. In this situation alchohol. No, im not tempted to use alchohol because i know what it can do to me....like say you really want to drink you try it, like it then you say have shots. Its not a good thing, well we all know that but you will get hungover the next day you will feel terrible. You might even up chuck. Noone wants to get sick on purpose right? This is why im not tempted to use alchohol. But, like think about it, eventually you will try alchohol and all that bad stuff that yuo dont think your gonna do now. But it will come and same with me your eventually gonna try it.

  38. What I think that means is that you can't logically think when you are drinking. Therefore why there is so many drunk driving accidents. You can't process what's going on. I have never been tempeted to drink because I like my life and alcohol could distroy it.

  44. Alcohol is a horrible thing for your body as a kid . It takes control of you and your body and your actions as well. You would do things that you would forget.Things you would usually never do. When you start drinking alcohol it usually results in addiction or alcoholic, but drinking a little is not bad. I am not tempted to use alcohol and hopefully no one else is.

  45. Some of you mention limiting consumption of aclohol to say one bottle of beer or one glass of wine as a way of preventing yourself from drinking too much.
    Is one glass of wine or one bottle of beer going to effect everyone in exactly the same way?

  51. I think when people say "it starts doing the thinking for you" they really mean that you don’t think before you act. I am not tempted at all to drink. I mean I’ve had a sip before at my aunts wedding because my parents said I could try it, but I would never take any more than just a sip. Because first of all I thought it tasted nasty when I tried it and I also no what it can do to you. I mean if you just turn on the television you can easily find a channel with someone showing you the effect of drinking. So why even try it if you see all the bad things it can do to you.

  52. Well when they say it makes you think for yourself it means that when your under the influence you are intoxicated and cant think straight. I never feel tempted because i obviously know its wrong and i shouldnt be drinking at this age.. one glass and one bottle of beer will not effect everyone the same way depending on your weight for example if you weigh less you are more likely to be drunk and if you weigh more than you arent as drunk..but still intoxicated. I feel very strongly about drinking while driving and I am doing my P.S.A on that in L.A lab

  53. Alcohol is very bad for you and can also be dangerous. When someone drinks alcohol it pretty much takes over their body. They also can't stand or walk without falling over. I am not tempted to use alcohol because I hear stories about someone drunk and they are driving with their friends in the car. Then they crash and the guy driving lives and his friends are killed. I could never live through that if I was driving.

  57. If you drink alcohol, it can effect your brain, leaving you drunk, and I would never really want that. One of the reasons for that is because, well... who wants to be acting all crazy and weird. It can even make you have hallucination, like Laura said. I'm not even at all tempted to use alcohol. I thinks it's stupid and should only be drunken on special occasions when your an adult.

  60. I think what is meant by "it does the thinking for us" is that it makes you all loopy and you can't think right. It makes you confused and do stupid things LIKE DRINKING. I've never been tempted with alcohol before and I hope I never do. I would never even think about drinking because it isn't good for you, it doesn't make you any cooler, the taste of it is probably bad, and it would make me a bad influence to all around me and I wouldn't want that at all.

  62. What that means is that you start to get dizzy when your drunk. Everything goes down hill from there. You start speaking funny, you don't think right, your actions are delayed. I have never tried or will try drinks because the smell is just enough. At Phillies games people drink like no tomorrow. It grosses me out, and they smell HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Between the smell of people smoking and the smell of people drinking is just plain disgusting.

  63. When you are drunk, the alcohol screws up your brain. You loose all sense of judgment and well, every other sense is gone.
    As quoted from www.healthguidance.org;
    "Here we are actually knowingly poisoning ourselves temporarily in order to desensitise our senses and to slow down and eventually stop our higher cognitive functions." (that's big words and stuff so im going to dumb it down a little bit so its easier to understand...)
    It says we are pretty much poisoning ourselves when we use alcohol so we can dull our senses and slow down and eventually stop our higher judgmental functions. So when you do drink you aren't yourself.
    I would never pick up a bottle of anything with alcohol willingly IN or anywhere else outside of school, because it's wrong and i TRULY DO NOT need any more problems to deal with, and drinking would make it harder to deal with problems and be a problem of its own.
    Drinking just one bottle wouldn't make it any less of a problem, because you have no idea how it will affect YOU. Everyone is deferent so our bodies will accept it differently. Drinking is dangerous there is no reason at all for someone at 12 or 13 should be doing it!

  65. People say that the alcohol starts doing your thinking for you because when you are using alcohol you dont act like yourself, you could start to do some pretty stupid things, that to those around you, wouldnt seem like your normal behavior. No i am not tempted to use alcohol because I know what will happen to you when you use it and that you could get into major trouble, especially at this age... I am not tempted also because, I think that most of the time people's friends are doing it and so then those people automatically think that they should be doing it too, this however is not happening to me.

  66. I think achohol is the worst thing write next to smoking. IT CAN KILL YOU! It is very dangerous at consumed on high high level daily. I mean it is not a terrible thing to have a drink every once in a while but not 3 or 4 a day. I don't think that the temptation is high now but on the way to high school and college it is going to be very tempting to a lot of people. I just say no to it no matter what

    I agree with Lauren I mean who hasn't had a sip of wine because their parents say so or at church but you have to realize what it can do to you. And it did taste nasty.

  67. i think what they mean by the "alchol does your thinking for you'. Is that when you get drunk your brain goes loopy and you have no control of what your are doing to yourself. When people are drunk they seem to use trenchant words and in some cases act in violence.Witch is not only dangerose to them but to the people around them. i would never go near alcohal at this age because i would never want to put myself in that type of danger.

    ReplyDelete
  68. It means that your not in control of yourself. When you are drunk you are not yourself, you can't control yourself. Also, to tell you the truth yes I have been tempted to drink but i really haven't a lot. Plus, I don't like the taste of alchohol.

  70. What I think it is meant by “the alcohol starts doing the thinking for you” is that when you are drunk you can’t control your own actions. That’s what is happening when people drink in drive they don’t realize what they are getting themselves into. I personally am not tempted to use alcohol and I hope no one my age would be either.

  72. Alcohol, alcohol, alcohol. What is alcohol is the main question? Its just a sugar and when consumed too much of it you pretty much get a sugar high for 2 seconds and then the after shock and then it gets started. Or should I say it ends. When you're drunk the sugars take the role of the brain and make you do regretable stuff. In school I'm not influenced by anyone to POP a bottle. I mean seriously we're in seventh grade. We have alot of better things to be worrying about than that. Why? Well, pretty much everyone plays sports so yeah and who can really get their hands on that without stealing it from their parents. Now highschool is a different story. All the dreams when growing up saying I am going to be the next Babe Ruth dissapear and you get introduced to the darkside. So yeah in life we can be faced with the influence to drink alcholic beverages, but not now we've got a couple of more years before it seeps in.

  75. I think it pretty much means that your really under the affect of the alchohol and it kind of takes over your body in some ways that you can't control your actions. When I'm older and able to drink, I'm sure I probably will but not excessively so I don't get drunk. I just personally think that's rediculous how people do that.

  78. When achohol does the thinking for you, it means that it is getting to your brain and the substances from the achohol are taking over your body, or over powering it. Like Gabby said, when your drunk, you don't do the things you would normally do. Your losing control over your body, and you dont what that to happen at a young age. It is good to stay healthy and strong as a kid.

  79. When they say the alchohol does think thinking for you...it is saying that you the drink do everything for you. No i'm not tempted by alchohol.

  81. I think it means it takes over your body, when you can't control your actions. When I am older (and can drink) I will drink but not to much. Why do people drink under the influence.

  84. When you drink alot of achohol your brain dosn't work right and you start to do alot of things you wouldn't do or say normally. One or two drinks wont really hurt you, but when you start to drink 5 or 6 is when you start to get drunk. It depends how small or tall you are too by the way the drinks affect you.

  85. I had some extra time at library so I thought I'd make another one:)

    Alcohol makes things seem fuzzy and 'looser' when you consume too much.
    It can make people act silly, or angry. I don't think I will ever be tempted by it. I'd rather NOT act different around the people who I respect.
    Plus, its not very good. I've tasted it at church for communion several times, and for now, I think it's disgusting. Who wants to drink something they dislike?

  86. I think that the statement means that you should not drinik. When you drink the alchohol goes into your brain and numbs your thoughts and totally like erases your memory so when you wake up you cant remember what happened. I have never been infulenced to drink other than joking around with my family because we support eachother and don't let younger people drink.

  88. Drinking alcolhol can affect other people too.
    I wrote a poem about it:
    Alcohol can make you crazy,
    The world will spin,
    You will get hazy,
    Underage drinking,
    is not so fun,
    who wants to break the law,
    in front of everyone?
    Alcohol can be religious,
    but if not you may seem ridiculous,
    Maybe just a taste,
    but do not chug it down,
    or you will get many,
    frowns.

  89. I think it means that it affects the way that you think. When you are drunk or under the influence of alcohol, you may not be able to make decisions on your own. You really do not have control over what you do most of the time. I have never been tempted to use alcohol. This is because people around only drink occasionally.

  91. I think this means alcohol can hurt you and it can control your brain. if you drink too much you can get alcohol poisoning. As a kid this is very bad for your body and should not be used. i was never temped to use alcohol. alcohol can ruin your life. You should drink unless your over 21.

  93. I think you should not drink until your 21.It totally kills your brain cells achool also kills your memory and takes over.So when you wakeup with a hangover and don't remember what you did mabey you should of not drink.Achool takes over you and you can't make descions on your own. I have never been tempted to drink because the people I know drink responsibly.

  97. I'm not tempted to try alcohol at all just because there are so many PSAs and commercial about this stuff. I think the saying meant that alcohol will make you do things that you would never do normally

  98. I agree with Jordan, I think that means that when people are using alcohol around you you're more likely to use it yourself. I haven't been tempted to use it myself but i have seen and heard about it happening.

  99. It means when your drunk you cant controle yourself. Its like your whole mind just goes blank. You could do something that you would normaly not even think about doing. You might even do something that you'll regret and not even rememember.

  101. sheesh. Am I like the only one to admit that I have wanted to try achol before? I'll have you know I was like 6 then. Now I know better. But I have wanted to at least once. You people act like curiosity is a crime.

  102. When you have a drink that is acholholic, it can do the thinking for you.

    This means that you can start to not feel so in control. You will start to get dizzy, and your head might hurt. You will start losing it. And that is when the achohol takes control. You do crazy things when you are drunk.

    I am never or have never been asked to drink acohol. I wouldnt say yes, but i bet many kids have been and would.

    Alcohol is bad, i mean look at what it does to you liver! YUCK

  103. When you have to many drinks, it's hard to think for yourself. Images become blurry and you tend not to remember thinks the next morning. I am NOT temped to use alcohol at all because I know it is wrong!

  106. I am not tempted by alcohol. Not at this age it is too early.Although in the near future people will start drinking. When you are runk it dulls your scences and you get a little freaky. Some people get funny when theyre drunk and some others get mean. That goes to show Alcohol effects diferent people in diferent ways.

  108. It means that alcohol goes to your brains and it takes over it. Im not tempted to do alcohol because im better than doing alcohol and it is really bad for you.
