was business oriented, so it was a whole different culture.

However.

I did get high on weekends.

It all started in my senior year, and I almost dropped out. It took a lot of willpower and determination to stay and graduate.

was the time I dropped acid in college, and had to go to an Econ class. It just wasn't worth it to waste a good trip.

I stuck out like a sore thumb when I was in high school. It seemed like I was the only person at Skyline who didn't cut class to get high or drunk. Every time I went to use a bathroom there, it used to smell like a skunk. Hell, I remember most of the dudes on my baseball team saying that they light up regularly. Weed was a big thing there, especially with the Bay Area's Hyphy Movement peaking at the time (I graduated in '08).

besides cigarettes (once). hated alcohol and never even drank. my group of friends were all of the same persuasion, pretty square. they probably saved me, lol.

HOWEVER, once graduated, it was on!

Didn't do it at school...some of my teachers also smoked...they would've known.

Weekends, though....

Sigh...I miss those days.
