Dear god... this sounds so much like me... O.o I kinda hate hearing all my friends stories about that "one time they got really fucked up" and then I sit there going... yeah... i remember that one time.. i like.. brushed my hair a different way.... yeah.. im boring.. -.-

I dunno, if getting fucked up is o.o really something someone would miss. Having fun with friends (which you don't need to get drunk in the process) yes, but.. getting screwed up, catching desease, ruining your body.. and possibly getting into trouble that would remain on your record for a life time :/ dunno.. I've known people who had done all the "fun" stuff, and regret it like hell now. But they can't change it..ofcourse.

It's understandable to feel that way, but sometimes there are "good" sides to being a goody. Do you want to be a stupid teenager and have something happen that you can't take back or change, making you regret it for the rest of your life? Those kinds of things have happened to other people, who wished they HADN'T gotten drunk or messed up. On another hand, it might turn out that you become addicted to the feeling of not being in control. With things like rohypnol (sp?) around, the social scene is a little less safer place.

On the other hand, if you're at home with a handful of friends you can trust, get smashed. xD

-if you knew how much you mean to me, you'd take that gun away from your head-

I think there are a lot of people who are like that, that wis h they hadn't missed out on the party. But while there are the fun aspects of these narcotics, remember they DO fuck up your body.

P.S. Nice to see your art again <3

Heh. I was a drug addict throughout high school. Concerts, parties, and bar hits.

You want to know what you're missing out on?

You're missing out on acting like an idiot.

Congrads! Your image came in second place!

When I first read your piece, it was very strong content wise. I believe that EVERYONE wants to be in that interesting state where they party hard until they pass out, even if that includes drinking. They are curious about what it might feel like, what kind of stuff they would go through mentally and how other people will treat them like they belong in this unique and strange group of people. But yet I know some people who had hard-core drama after experiancing a night of drinking and drug use at a party. Their life goes up a little, then it suddenly crashes down like a ton of bricks. Some of them have had health issues after a few of those nights.

You can have a great time without drinking or smoking! Drinking is just a way to alter your mind and body so you will have "more" fun. Drinking beer and something related to that is just a "social" thing. When my roommates dragged me out of my room and brought me to a bar where one of my old classmates was, he bought me a drink even though I dont drink that often. He brought me a RED DEATH. It looke dlike coolaid at first, but I drank it a little to fast. My roommates stopped me and told me that a READ DEATH contained 5 different kinds of very strong alcohol...I felt sick afterwards... I did not need to drink this stuff in order to fit in. I was just there, chatting and joining in conversations, no matter HOW drunk it came out.

I've gone through long periods of heavy drug use, followed by years of relative sobriety, so I've seen this from both sides of the issue, and what I've really gotten out of it is this: no matter what you do, you will always wonder what it would've been like to do it differently. If you never do drugs, you'll wonder what you're missing out on; if you do drugs, you'll wonder whether you're ruining your future for temporary pleasure. Nobody is ever really satisfied.

*hugs* Thank you for the honor of second place ^_^ And yeah,I pride myself on having fun with people without the use of drugs and alcohol. My friends and I have been suspected of being stoned, coked out, or drunk when we were just being our silly, moronic selves. I get a natural high off of being with people with good energy. Maybe one of thses days I'll try stuff, just to chalk it up to experience. Hell I had my first martini last night, Sour Apple. Only drank half od it cuz it was sooo strong
