Mdtechno - sorry you had a shitty week. but i can only laugh that you didn't have a good time. after reading ALLLLL about your preplanning this, pre-planning that. how you seemed to know everything about miami, yet it was only your first year
i can say i saw this coming. i see it coming for all noobs that plan as much as you.
first year people take note.... plan little. it's good to plan, but you don't know how miami is during WMC, so plan little to get a feel for how that week is. it's def NOT for the weak at heart. i'm sicker than a dog right now. however, i made it to all my parties but one (went to a different party instead) |
couldnt agree more, i always seem to get the death cold from hell late in the week, but i power on cuz i know when i get home i can recover properly.
the biggest mistake i see noobs make, and even some seasoned vets is they get there and hit the bottle immediately.
Most of us are coming from colder climates, or at least aren't used to the humidity and how tiring it can be--add that, plus constant sun, plus tons of alcohol, adrenaline and the stress from travel and you just set yourself up for the worst experience of your life. For every 1 shot of alcohol you need 2 bottles of water to even that shit out in your body or you're in for some insane sickness.
I lost 9lbs in 6 days. its crazy...and i was really TRYING to keep feeding myself, carrying granola and protein bars where i could and plenty of fluids. But you get caught up in the excitement and don't realize how many hours go by since you last ate. If anything stick to BEER, at least you're getting some grains/carbs haha.
sucks to be sick on your vacation..especially WMC, but take it as a lesson learned and don't think you're the coolest guy on the planet pounding drinks as soon as you get there.
even sharks get eaten once in awhile...
