Hangover By Jennifer Pashley Summary
I chose "Hangovers" by Jennifer Pashley.

I took it because we all have a day which is not ours. Moreover, there's nothing you can do to avoid seeming like an incredible monster.

This story is about the way that in hangover can make someone. It also explains that you can have an hangover since the night, and then wake up the next day the same. This one would feel different in every situation during the day. Either in the work, or the school, etc..

I don't Know if I like it or not. But it's funny to read about people's reactions when they have a hangover. Even though this story is a bit sad when the author mentioned that the hospital, she talks about people who stay there to wait for someone with their own hangover also ( P. Jennifer, Hangovers,http://www.matchbooklitmag.com/pashley.html.

    In the essay “Hookups Starve the Soul” by Laura Vanderkam, we are given “insight” into college life and what the students may do with their free time. At first glance it may seem that Vanderkam is writing her essay and directing it towards students, but she is in fact directing it towards the parents and it seems that the audience is a hostile one too. Vanderkam tries to explain to the parents what is possibly and probably going on that they may not know about, and that it all falls on the parents, that it is their own fault. Her thesis being; “Some blame the sexual revolution. Some blame co-ed dorms and alcohol abuse. I blame something else.” Throughout Vanderkam’s essay she uses a logical argument, which is somewhat reasonable with supporting evidence. She also tries to establish credibility in her paper, and unfortunately her essay is saturated with logical fallacies.…

They realize that marriage is hard and after having kids it’s even harder. Hope Edelman, in her essay “The Myth of Co-Parenting: How It Was Supposed to be. How It Was,” feels frustrated with her husband because of his lack of participation in their marriage. On the other hand, Eric Bartels in his essay “My Problem with Her Anger,” is frustrated with his wife because she is angry with him all the time. Though these essays address marriage from both a male and female perspective, they both discuss idealistic views of marriage, lack of communication, blame, and how to fix their problem.…

    Derrick wakes up. The hangover clings to his skull, his heart, which seems like it's barely working this morning as he rolls off of Tim’s couch and searches wildly around the living room for that glass of water he could have sworn he filled, set beside his sleeping place for when he woke up. This common, quick sense, even when he’s shitfaced, kicks in sometimes and he almost feels good about himself. But if he doesn't quench that demanding thirst now his tongue could dry up. Maybe his eyes too. Everything on the face is connected. He learned that in high school when he had an earache that gave him migraines for a month. What would you rather, he thinks now as the ache in…

    One of the factors that contribute to a hangover, is the ingredients that accompany in alcoholic beverages and the effect of congeners. In addition, drinking more than you are supposed is another factor. When your body is in a stage of a hangover, it causes the body to lose water reducing brain cells.

    The memoir I read is about a young woman, Koren Zailckas, who, over the course of growing up, not only experimented with alcohol, but also went through the whole cycle of alcohol abuse. She shares her experiences in order to present that this can be the case with anyone and evolves over time, not all at once. She begins the story by talking about one of her childhood friends, Natalie, with whom presented Koren’s first sip of alcohol. She describes Natalie as one of those friends who always was the first to do things, and to encourage others to jump on board. After trying Southern Comfort at the young age of 14, she realizes that this alcohol stuff makes the inhibitions, which she struggles with so often, disappear—She loves this. She wants to drink more after this time, but Natalie goes away to a boarding school, and Koren’s source of alcohol goes right with her. She goes on to talk about her drinking experiences in high school, particularly at age 16 when she requires her stomach to be pumped after a party. She went on to college where she stayed in the party scene, joined a sorority, and continued her bad habits. She had many negative experiences including sexual encounters, fights, and problems with relationships, all while under the influence of heavy alcohol. She tries quitting a few times unsuccessfully, even moving away from the party scene. She is finally able to quit at the age of 23 after realizing how much it cost her.…
