I'm afraid I overdid it. Althogh I was assured that it was well recieved, I can't help but feel it was too much to process. As with much of my more... "forced" writing, as I read it afterwords, I felt like I had written it on riddelin, like I was changing from point to point to quickly or without obvious gradual-transition.
I suppose the reciever would have a better review of it. If only you knew who she was... confused

N? Why would it be significant that I know, Jim? In any case I'm sure it was fine.
Edit: That reminds me. I need to head to campus soon to pick up my mail... unfortunately they don't forward mail home during breaks...

Slim95 I had fourteen days for a break. *sigh* And even THAT did not seem like nearly enough. Since I've been kicked out of school, I'm on perma-break status.... Then again, I'm working on getting a GED, going to community college, and getting a job right now since I know I can't get into armed ******** heart problems

Slim95 Alchohol and weed has sort of messed up a few good friends of mine, recently.....and the stuff that goes on in my neighborhood doesn't help my perception of illegal drug or alchoholic inebriation... Alcohol and drug use is one of the few factors that helped me not kill myself before I met my friend Jill, but then when I started cutting back after meeting her my life became a living hell... Still though, I've decided that quitting altogether would be stupid... I'm still a user and abuser of many things to this very day, and I have no regrets about using them. In my eyes, I have no problem seeing someone tripping on someone, unless they're actually abusing it, then I think they should stop. I see it as experimenting and opening your mind to these new things. Sure, they can be bad, but if you have kids later on in life, you can tell them EXACTLY what's could happen from experience, instead of some tired ol' textbook speech that would bore them.

I'm not going to get up on a soap box and judge you, or tell you what you should do and what you shouldn't do, it's not my place, but I will say that I do worry about you, as a friend. I don't know about the "telling your kids" thing, though. I know that I use my mom's flaws as excuses all the time....."You never turned your homework in! How can you be so mad at me for not doing mine?!" I'm especially bitter because one of my best friends, Kelsey, has been getting drunk on campus....a lot.....and taking weed breaks during lunch. She's been skipping school for the past few weeks, and she's gotten into some serious jams....Parties, wrong boys, waking up in places she really shouldn't have...Everything just seemed to be going so smoothly for her before high school. I live in a neighborhood that thrives on crime and drug deals, causing a few too many sleepless nights (gunfights suck). My mother's an ER/CCU nurse. I hear hospital horrror stories every day, and a large percentage of them derive from drugs and alchohol. So, it's hard for me to see the positive effects that such things can bring, though I've dreamed about bliss every now and then. Edit: *rubs her eyes* Ugh. I'm sleepy. Goodnight, ATGers. razz Thanks for putting up with my dreary self. I'll shove her back into her box...

Goodnight, ATGers. razz Thanks for putting up with my dreary self. I'll shove her back into her box... Haha, I understand what you're saying, but trust me, I know what could happen from drug use and alcohol abuse. I've gotten so trashed that I've woken up in a city that's about 1 1/2 hour drive from where I live, with no recalection of how I managed to get there. I've been put in the hospital twice from drug use, and had other times that I should have been put in the hospital, but wasn't able to make it there, or just didn't feel the need to at the time. One problem with drugs is, they're made out to be so much worse than everyone says. For example, Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, often referred to as MDMA, or the most common name, Ecstasy. People will say "Don't use Ecstasy, it will kill you!" Now, I won't lie, it's true that you CAN die from using E, but do you have any idea of the odds? Probably not, since people won't tell you them, or don't know them. Approximately 1 in 10,000,000 people die from the actual MDMA. All the deaths the people blame on Ecstasy are actually the result of Overheating your body, dehydration, or heart attack if you mixed drugs (No, I'm not talking about drinking alcohol while rolling either, I'm talking about mixing Meth, Acid, or as stupid as it sounds, Viagra with it.) Either way, the odds are really in the users favor when it comes to using E, as long as you're smart about it. I will say this to everyone who reads this that may be thinking about trying drugs. There are 3 drugs you don't want to mess with.
Meth - Seriously, this s**t will blow your mind, and not in the good way... I lost a full 1 1/2 - 2 days because I was too ******** up to even move off of my couch from it
Heroine - Bah, I tried it a few times, and never got a good high from it, then I felt like s**t afterwards.
Ecstasy - If you've never ******** with E before, DON'T. It's highly addictive, and you tend to blow through the pills quite fast, so money also comes into play with this one.I understand what you're saying Slim, and I don't think someone should be throwing away their education just to go get drunk or stoned (Ironic that I'm saying this, seeing as that's why I got kicked out of school) and I also don't think younger people should be doing drugs or drinking at all. I do think on the other hand, that people need to keep an open mind and be open to new experiences like this. I was completely anti-drug before I started rolling regularly in 7th grade, but after the first time I did it, it blew me away. I was able actually have fun without caring about my lack of friends. Hell, thanks to E, I dropped from 250 pounds to 230 pounds in a single weekend. It seemed like a miracle drug. Plus, it also helped me with a lot of depression issues, and if it wasn't for E, I probably would have killed myself over summer instead of heading to the hospital after stabbing myself. There were also multiple times I'd have pulled the trigger when I had a gun to my head if I didn't know that all I had to do was call up my friend and I'd be feeling great in no time. Sure, I realize that it's only a temporary escape, but still, it helped me put some time aside and have a bit of fun, while I figured out what I needed to do so I could face my real problems. Well, I've turned this into a mini rant, and I didn't want to do that, so I'm done for now. I've gotta go home with this new little manual I've downloaded and re-teach myself linux on my new computer, then get my Cowboy Bebop MUD running. Peace ATG!
