I feel like telling a story about me and how I came to be a nonsmoker or drinker.
First off, I do not care if others do it. I just don't do it.
I started drinking in grade 9 cuz all my friends did. Woot, party..whatever. Then by the end of grade 9 I had my first joint but didn't really get high until grade 10.
I drank alot. Everyweekend I would drink about half of a 26er. (I am a tiny person, so that did me in very well) One night I forgot to call my parents to say I was going to sleep over, so they called me. And my friends kept making excuses of why I couldn't come to phone. Truth be told, I was throwing up everywhere and screaming my head off at my boyfriend who I had just broken up with.
My parents said they were comming so my two friends showed me kinda cuz I had barf in my hair and re-dressed me and I woke up in my living room with towels all around (incase I threw up), a bucket and my parents sleeping on the floor. I was pissed off.
I drank two times after that, but not to get drunk and then just stopped entirely. Found new friends also.
The new friends were druggies. I did weed almost everyday in the beginning of grade 11. Until the heart of winter when I was just to damn cold to go outside in the snow for weed. Then I realized how much better I felt, and how I didn't caugh as much during the day and whatnot. So I decided not to start again.
For me, drugs and booze made me do things I out of my character and ended up making me confused of who I was. I was such a different person when I was drunk. And I would wonder if that was the true me.
Anywho, in the end I had no friends and I haven't touched the stuff since. (just finished grade 12 now) And I miss the weed a bit..but I am so freaking happy I stopped.
I like having a clear mind.
PS. There was really no point to this story
