Life has changed.

Posted by iMini - October 19th, 2009


Some for better, some for worse.

I started college last month...
as a first year (second year as a first year), I was straight as an arrow last year, good attendance, stayed away from smoking and drugs (I drank on occasion), went to but just one party, pretty good academic wise. I spent most of my spare time on my computer or playing games, days that ended early I went home to play games, I pulled 3 different girls in the whole of last year, socially, it was a little bad...

This year... I'm a little more... rebellious... or such... I've got a bad attendance, where it used ot be 90-95%, I've now dropped to around 65% (I am working on this, honestly), I still do well in the lessons I attend, well, I haven't handed in one assignment due in ICT, or alot of homework... no really, im pretty good. I've started smoking cannabis, I was going to a friends house for a "get together" of sorts, I get there, a friend is passed out on the floor from smoking too much weed, a couple of hours later me and two other guys went outside and I tried weed for the first time, I was shaking as I tried it, headrush after afew drags and I felt great, I had another joint in the morning aswell... Since then I get high 2 or 3 times a week now.

I went to a party recently, I took a tent with me, it was the designated "Stoner tent" we put it up, and got really stoned, and then got drunk... I have another party on Friday (this is pretty much triple the amount of parties I was at last year in just a month or so), I'm taking the stoner tent again, same plan as last time, sounds like fun to me. I've pulled 3 different girls on multiple occasions, one of them even became my "friend-with-benefits", which was pretty cool.

My life has changed, almost a complete reverse from last year, instead of being socially awkward, I've become "pretty damn cool" (my friends all agree, I'm alot cooler now then what I was), but at the same time I'm slipping on my education, I almost gave into the idea of quitting college and just getting an apprenticeship, I have to say the main thing that motivates me for college is my friends, I fucking love them.

TL;DR

I've gone from being socially-awkward and academically good to socially-brilliant and academically under average in some aspects.

Quite the opposite for me. I was really social, every weekend I was binge drinking, constantly smoking weed in my first year of Sixth Form, but this year I'm paying much more attention to school.

Still smoke weed though, and just recently I tried shrooms, awesome :D

Don't let it get to your head. You slip too far in your education and you might regret it.

Enjoy life, but moderation in all things.

Somewhat what I've been thinking recently.

Doing drugs and drinking should not be done just because you think its cool. Do them because you want to and you have reasons to. But try and keep the green closer then the bottle, its a lot safer for you.

Socially-awkward? Nothing wrong with that, I'm the same way or atleast in your case I still am that way, and I'm pretty damn cool from what people keep saying to me.

If your in college don't fuck that chance up, you might never get it again.
