A tip: Drinking copious amounts of champagne followed by guzzling copious amount of coffee can make for one hell of a stomach ache later on, so don't do it. 

I, of course, learned this the hard way on Christmas. Christmas Eve and Christmas night I attended a couple of classy parties put on by friends of the family. Fortunately I am now old enough to be considered one of the "grown ups" and was allowed the obligatory glass of champagne that accompanies that title. In keeping with the holiday spirit, I suppose, my glass kept getting magically re-filled by unfamiliar adults who grilled me about college. Now of course I was more than happy to go along with this, but no one seemed to realize that four and half glasses of bubbly is enough to make this 5'3" girl a little tipsy. I always played it off cool though, so nothing was ever noticed. Oh, the holidays.

P.S. My grandmother is convinced I'm the next Meryl Streep and is pushing hard from me to study drama at Yale. Actually, more than one member of my family has mentioned this to me, as if it's something people do all the time. Ha!
