How did I get here?

I started smoking weed once in a while when I was 14. Some of my friends and I like to have a few tokes after school and then head over to the coffee house or the movies. I like how smoking pot helps me to think about things and can help me make an attitude adjustment.

About 6 months ago, my cousin started dealing, which makes it easier for me to get weed pretty much whenever I want. Now I smoke almost every day. I enjoy the feeling most of the time, but lately I’ve noticed that I start getting a bit paranoid at times, and my nerves get jumpy. My grades have dropped a bit too, because school just isn’t interesting anymore, and most of the time I don’t feel like doing my homework. My mom says that I’ve changed. Last week she commented on the smell on my clothes. I told her I had been with some friends who were smoking.

A friend called me today and asked if I wanted to get together with a few of the guys. We met them at the park and smoked some bud. It was some kind that I’ve never tried before, and I’m feeling a bit strange. I decided to just sit down and chill on the bench for awhile. I told my friends I’d catch up with them later.
