<p>oh for crying out loud, when you get to college, you are going to want to drink. Stop showing how nerdy you are. People who drink at NU are not like People who binge drank at your high school: people who drink at NU are just as smart as you are, they just happen to also be concerned with having a good time.
And if you are so afraid of being around people who will think little of you for not drinking, than you probably just need to work on your OWN social skills to get along with people of different lifestyles. </p>
<p>Your parents, despite what they may be telling you, expect you to get rip-roaringly drunk in college, numerous times… do not worry about what they will think of you.</p>
