never drink alcohol or do drugs

an achievement that I’ve been able to get through the first semester of my freshman year without imbibing. My friends and I do other things to have fun together!

when this guy first told me to say no…

Those were the good ol’ days when nobody my age actually did drink or do drugs… It’s harder now, but no less important.

that this will be close to impossible to do when I’m in college. I say…”they”’re wrong. I can do it. So, I guess I’ll check this when I’ve survived my first year of college freedom…completely drug-free and sober. Here’s to being “high on life.”

Especially on the principle that I have an addictive personality. It will be an easier life for me if I can just draw the line between black and white…between not drinking at all and drinking at all. Period. I will maintain this attitude and goal at least until graduated from college (possible exceptions include sips of verious wines/champaignes I’ve tried both summer ‘04 in Italy and other times).
