lifestyle differences in HS

[shagnscoob]

okay in highschool a big part of being social is getting drunk and stoned and going to hookah bars and all that stuff right?

well, im nt into any of that, and when people invite me places i dont really have a good reason to say no, and then they think im scared or something, and it really sucks cuz i shouldnt be scared of stuff like that, i just dont want to get into that scene....

is there something you DJs do out there to turn down plans like this?

 

[AlexTheGreat]

invent ? just say you have to work out, or go work, or go on a date, or meet someone .... There are tons of plausible excuses available, just choose a simple one, and if someone asks you how/with who, get a tangible answer to taht and yoU're in the safe zone

 

[shagnscoob]

well ive tried that and theyll say 'oh i know you wouldnt go anyway, its becuase your afraid, you dont even have to do it just come...'

you cant make up excuses everytime, eventually theyll ask if your even into that business, its difficult to avoid in high school unfortunately

The stoners and "hookah bar" frequenters are the lames in my school. Most are pretty well bred and don't do drugs or drink or have sex. Anyways, just say you are busy. I get invited to movies and such, but unfortunately, I had to decline a few times because I had work or tournaments.

Take up a hobby, and get involved with volunteering or something. Don't pretend to be busy, actuallybe busy.

Dude I was the same way. Grade 10 and 11 = Hell with the guys.
I learned one thing, that is sooooo key, to me.

Stand Above the Rest!

Alpha Male style... Say you don't need alcohol to have a good time. Or if you want to, just have one beer, but make it last the entire night. That way you have a drink but your not going to get drunk and no one asks you to have a beer, or take shots or funnel, you have your drink.

I just started drinking and i've never had problems with the ladies, go to the parties tho, easy way to meet chicks.

None of my guy friends ever did that stuff in high school and neither did my boyfriend. They all said that they didnt need alcohol to have fun and people respected that. And if they make fun of you for it, feel free to make cracks about not wanting to end up in a 12-step program and getting a fat beer belly and then never getting laid ever. Cuz beer bellies are GROSS.
I had plenty of fun in high school and i didnt do those things either (well i smoked pot a few times but i wasnt a stoner). Just find friends that are into what you're into--a clean lifestyle.

Oh and another reason not to drink in high school.....college. Its so much more fun when you're away and go partying and not having to worry about the parental units and such. One of my roommates claims she was a HUGE partier in high school and she did X and drank every weekend and now she NEVER goes out EVER. She never went out freshman year either. She said she just got sick of it and it wasnt fun anymore. And you never want that to happen when you're in college because college is the time and place to party. Not high school. HS parties dont even COMPARE to college parties.

Alcohol and drugs

The only thing to fear about drugs and alcohol is getting caught. They are not really that bad unless you do the crazy drugs. Weed isn't addictive and is not a gateway drug. Alcohol only kills if you drink an entire bottle of vodka and you weigh 90 lbs. or you drive. Drugs can actually make you funnier if done in moderation. Just arrange to have someone else drive you or spend the night there. But be careful. One time getting caught by your parents will forever lose their trust in you no matter what they say. Do not do it at loud parties in populated places or at places where cops are likely to be. Alcohol is in high school and college what caffiene is in preschool and elementary school. It is looked down upon by parents, but make you look and act cooler and be funnier. If you drink, be sure to eat with it and have something to cover the smell in your mouth and have some cheap body spray like AX or something. Same with weed. Use all with moderation and do not be weak enough as to develope a reputation as someone who is an addict or dependant on it for fun.

Of course weed is a gateway drug. I have known dozens of people from my school who did just pot, then eventually got into X, cocaine, acid and shrooms because they want a new and different experience. Alcohol has been known to kill huge football player-types from drinking too much beer. Its called ALCOHOL POISONING. Drugs will make you STUPIDER, NOT funnier.

See, half of that is sarcastic but when you do give advice about not doing it at loud parties and eating before drinking isn't sarcastic.

Alcohol is in high school and college what caffiene is in preschool and elementary school.

Since when do elementary and preschool kids have caffiene?

 

[AFK Protector]

what are acid and schrooms.

 

[Asesino]

Acid- LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide)

Shrooms- I dunno...

Drugs are good, especially when you don't care about anything. I do it with my buddies, real good ****.

 

[I-am-someone]

Shrooms are mushrooms that make you hallucinate. They're still harddrugs in my book, even though I have tried them once.
You know, drugs can be fun - the problem with most drugs is that when you do them, you are in essence escaping from reality into the druggy world. The druggy world seems a lot more fun, because you feel strange and you do a lot of dumb things. However, when you then go back to reality you begin to feel the craving to go back into that 'dumb' state of mind. Every single time you do those drugs again, you will be able to escape from reality and every time you go back into reality it will seem duller. In essence however, you are not having a better life when on drugs, as you all know the downsides to doing them.
The main idea not to do drugs (for me anyway) is because reality is a lot more fun! Being lazy and dumb can be fun, but isn't going out, dancing and partying with all your heart a lot more fun?

If your friends do drugs and want to go to a hooker bar, just tell them to go jerk off because you want to do stuff that you enjoy doing. However, if you can't think up stuff that's more fun, then just go with them and show them what kind of a fun time you can have without drugs and alcohol!

Just so you know, I used to smoke pot at least once a week for the last two years. I didn't have a single non-stoner buddy here and didn't really ever have fun the way I'm doing right now.
Only two weeks ago, I completely quit everything except alcohol. Goddámn, I have been having more fun than I have ever had while being on drugs as well as having converted most of my friends from being complete stoners into moderate stoners

(Just so you know, pot is legal where I live, you can get alcohol when you're 16 and shrooms are legal as well.)

do u live in amsterdam
if not let me know.

 

[I-am-someone]

I don't.

 

[Mack Bishop]

amsterdam is what some americans like to call holland

so the answer is yes, right?

 

[Aerix]

Just go to thsoe parties and dont get drunk or smoke. Is that such a problem? and if they think you're wierd just say I'm a permanent designated driver.

 

[Mack Bishop]

**** that. that makes it look like youd rather be drinking/drugging but you cant because youre somebody's *****. just tell people you dont drink/smoke.

 

[p-tang]

Drinking is the best thing that i started doing, i only do it once every couple weeks ago and i dont get piss drunk, drinking helps you so much with girls especially if your at partys.

Girls are going to hook up with you 10 times more often if they drinking then if your not, alcohol makes you much more relaxed and confident. Remember you dont have to become an alcoholic or anything to have success with it, trust me once you try it you will realize what ur missin out on.

next time ur at a party drink 4 beers quickely (depending on weight) or have like 4 or 5 shots of vodka and you'll be good to go, if you dont like it then you dont have to do it again, but u gotta try sometime.

All that proves is that "people from your school" are retarded. I know plenty of very intelligent people who smoke weed on an almost daily basis, have done so for years, and have never tried any harder drugs.

Also, it's nearly impossible for anyone (especially "huge football player-types) to get alcohol poisoning from beer. 99% of alcohol poisioning occurs from people drinking large amounts of hard liquor in a short time span.
