#47 - Don't Drink for at Least 14 Days

I wasn't able to conquer this one last year due to my love of whiskey and wine as well as my susceptibility to even the most minor of peer pressure to grab a glass of wine after class or a rough day at work.

This year, however, I spent 10 days in Sri Lanka, where the majority of the population is Buddhist and believes in being free from intoxication... though many exempt caffeine as tea is plentiful thanks to the British.  There are still bars and stores that sell beer, wine, and liquor, but our group stayed completely sober for the duration of the trip, so just tacking on a few days at the end was no problem!
