Hi guys
Hope you all had a good weekend. Mine was ok. Went out with my friends and didnt spend much but it does look like someone spiked my drink. I had three drinks and went from just happy to all over place being sick and my friend took me home n i passed out deep sleep in hers. I never sleep well in anyones house. Yesterday I had awful stomach cramps too. I am better now but really need to be careful as either i cannot drink much or what everyone saying my drink was spiked.
Thankfully i had good friends there.

Thanks Miss Tara.
My friend says I was fine and all sudden I was acting like a different person and being very cheeky n wobbly. I have no memory of this or anything though. Going to stay off drink anyway for a while.
