You don't waste the good shit.
Anyway, puking is your body's way of telling you that you've had too much
It's just getting the alcohol out of your system.
let her have her fun!

I have to disagree VERY strongly with the person right below me. As her friend, it is your responsibility to make sure that nothing happens to her! I know it entirely sucks having to babysit, but since coming to university I've dealt with a lot of drunk friends and even stayed with a friend who had alcohol poisoning and had to go to the hospital.
Here's the best way to deal with a drunk person:
First of all, NEVER tell them they're drunk, because they WILL refute it to the death. I know. But act like she's sober, and like you're not babying her, because she'll be more likely to listen to you if you're not.
Secondly, if they're drunk enough, lie to them! I know, I know, honesty is the best policy... but drunk people are like children, and if you have to tell them a little white lie to get them to stop doing something, then it's the right thing to do. For instance, a drunken friend of mine was skipping down the road and falling... so my other friend told him to stop and save his energy for the "skipping contest" the next day. I know, sounds stupid, but to the intoxicated it makes PERFECT sense.
Good luck, and it's great that you're being a responsible friend.

You shouldn't have to be this girl's babysitter. What she needs is a good talking to---when she's sober. Sit her down and tell her you're not going to personally monitor her every time. Let her know that her drinking concerns you and maybe she'll limit her own self a bit better. If not, get her some outside help.

Don't let her buy so many drinks, make her stop at 2 or 3, depending on how strong it is, ti won't get her drunk.

hi! when she is drunk, you absolutely have to make sure to take it away from her when she has had too much! everyone that is drunk says "no i am not drunk" and "no don't take my beer" but they are drunk... you can take it! just grab it out of her hands and make sure she doesn't get another one! tell her that you are worried that she might be drinking too much, and that you don't want anything bad to happen to her! many people die of alcohol poisoning every year, so i am sure she doesn't want to. google alcohol poisoning or alcohol deaths and show her a few articles you find! it's so sad to see pictures and hear about young people who died from drinking too much... it should get to her and make her think twice!!
and if you ever see her (or anyone else) pass out after drinking a lot, DO NOT LET HER!! that is how many people die from that! make sure to keep her awake, and if she is throwing up a lot, or throwing up while she is passed out, or if her heart beat doesn't seem normal, CALL 911 RIGHT AWAY!
