Drunk psychology

This is first part of my notes from Vienna trip. They mostly don't have anything to do with Vienna at all, but I didn't have internet connection there, so I will now post them all.

I am used to dealing with drunk people on the verge of doing something horrendously stupid.
I have learned how to make them understand the point I try to represent.
Which is usually: “Lay down and don’t do a shit.”
Often other (sober or just tipsy) people make fun of me because of that.
They tell me I speak to those drunks like they were children. That I tell them things I can’t fulfill, that I manipulate them.
But it is necessary and it works. No one can deny it.

And by this, I learned a plenty about the human mind.
Drunk people are honest.
Drunks never lie.
And often, they reveal a part of their primal selves.

I believe it made me understand actions of brain better.
I feel like I understand thinking of people around me better.

And I always hoped to raise a certain feeling in people by my writing.
I have never been very successful yet, especially my early creations are miserable.
I had an idea, but I couldn’t find a way to express it.
That is for example the short story I wrote last year for English Writers competition.
I didn’t receive any feedback, but I didn’t even get to the winning ceremony, even though about half of people who wrote stories were there.
So I guess it was just miserable.

But now I know about at least a single person, who felt moved by this blog.
And it might as well be the only person who read it yet.
And it warms me at heart.
