Bite the wax tadpole ...
There's nothing like a spot of coin cleaning to appreciate the kicking of a long standing habit.
From the age of 8 through to 22, my drug of choice was black, bubbly, potent, and when consumed in copious quantities of its liquid form; highly corrosive.
Its name was translated into Chinese as 'bite the wax tadpole'. Odd I grant you, but it fared better than its major rival. Their slogan, '[brand name] adds life' was translated as '[brand name] brings your ancestors back from the dead'. Fuckin zombie juice! Argh!! Run away.
It all started innocently enough with a glass or two amongst friends, but then I needed to study all night after working all day in an establishment with easy access to all I could consume. It just wasn't enough! I ended up licking a fat lump of the pre-mix every day. My skin erupted in pus ridden volcanos, my hands shook so bad I could hardly hand over my bus money, my studies and my social life suffered badly. Quitting was real tough, but ultimately one of the best things I have ever done.
