10 things I have in common with Nina

I am a massive fan of Offspring the tv show on channel ten. I watch it religiously, because it makes me laugh and it makes me cry.

Nina Proudman Channel ten's - Offspring

On Wednesday's episode I nearly peed my pants it was the funniest scene I have ever seen and I couldn't help but scream out, it's funny cause it's true.

So hear are 6 things that happened on the episode which have all unfortunately happened to me.

1. Nina wakes up naked and dying for water when she realises that she has no idea where she is.  Yes I have been in this predicament before, if you haven't lucky you, you can take your saintly goodness and sit far away from me
2. Nina having an awkward breakfast moment with an almost stranger when they tell you, No we didnt have sex you were way too smashed for that, you did however...insert crying story. vERY EMBARRASSING STORY. Lets leave it there.
3. Flash to Nina sitting at her home looking for something to eat.  She finds crackers and after shovelling 4 into her mouth. She realises the crackers are absorbing every droplet of much needed water in her mouth resulting in a spray exploding into the air.  If you haven't done this during the night of being drunk or the next day, then you are lucky. I wouldn't wish this rookie mistake on anyone.
4. Flash to Nina being taken to her door by nice samaritan (Adam), she can't find her keys. She lies says she has them and nice person drives off. Adam returns knowing that she is lying and immediately she dives into a sparse tree next to her door. Adam: "Ummm I can see you??"
   I've actually done this before but the nice samaritan was a cop and it wasn't my house. They did however give me a lift home and didn't tell my parents. They wouldn't stop at MacDonalds.
5. Nina walking into the 7eleven on the corner of Johnston and Brunswick only to walk straight out as the lights were too bright for her delicate bloodshot drunk eyes. Both Stick and I cried with laughter at this, as we have done the same thing in that same exact 7eleven.  I'm pretty sure its a conspiracy to keep riff raff out of their shop in the early hours of the morning. If you are brave enough the blue powerade and mrs mac super sausage rolls are worth it.
6. Flashback to Nina paying $185 for a bowl of Soup. She says, keep it, it's a donation.  At 4am when you can only find one place open, those hot chips are worth the $20 tip you give them.

I think it was nice to see someone on TV who is really really drunk and isn't portrayed as an alcoholic or end up getting their stomach pumped. People get irresponsibly drunk sometimes. It happens, it's life and yes there are alot of things that you wake up in the morning regretting but it also gives you something funny to talk about with your girlfriends the next day.
