It may seem unfair compared to your friends who appear to have gotten off easily, but imagine how unfair it seems to the people who woke up to your mess and had to clean it. It's not only the physical work, but the insult.
What would you think if you discovered someone had gotten drunk and trashed your room?

Not 100 percent right way to deal with this situation, but I am rooting for your parents and hoping you learn something.

Yep, you deserve it.
Your behavior was unacceptable. You know it. Your sister knows it, your parents know it.
SUCK it up, you did something stupid and this is your punishment.
Take responsibility for your own actions instead of whining.

My parents were more restrictive than that and I didn't even get in trouble! What were they doing when you were out drinking in the first place? Obviously the people whose house you were supposed to be at weren't doing their jobs if you snuck out, what were they doing? Sleeping through parenting? You're lucky that's all you got. I'd lock you out of your room with no media or privacy for the rest of the summer and from then on out you'd have an escort everywhere you went, including your first school class.

Yes you do. Your parents are actually being alot more lenient that other parents would be. Are you the girl who constantly gets into trouble and then writes on DC wanting us to feel sorry for you? I'm pretty sure you are.
Advice? Stop being a brat. You are driving your parents crazy with worry. I'm really glad my kids didn't act like you. You have no idea how much you must worry your parents. GROW UP!
