quitting

i think im gonna quit drugs completely. except alcohol. but im gonna quit marijuana, mdma, opiates etc... i go to community college right now in southern california but i fucking hate it. i really wanna go to the university of oklahoma. the thing is, is that its really expensive so i would have to help my parents pay for it because there not the wealthiest people in the world. i used to spend a lot of money on drugs. if i work hard enough this semester and next year i think ill be able to get in and go to a big university like ive always wanted to. going to football and basketball games every week that are televised on espn seems pretty cool. having fun in the dorm rooms etc.. ill still post on here though, i just wont have any new drug experiences to talk about

 

That's awesome. I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one here who choses not to partake. Good luck with your future, dear.

 

Good Luck!! A break is sometimes not such a bad thing.

 

Best of luck, life can only get better for you, I quit alcohol didnt think i could.
now i just enjoy life with out the stuff,

 

Why except alcohol?
That's a pretty damn bad one.

 

cuz im still gonna go out to parties and stuff and alcohol is always there so i dont have to pay for it, and i drink like once or twice a month so i dont think it will be to bad on me.

 

Ah, very well then; just watch the amount doesn't escalate too much, or you don't go overboard those times you do drink.

 

The truest test of willpower is to attend a drinking party, have fun, be comfortable- and not touch a drop.

 

duck- ive gone overboard twice in my life, puked my guts out all night and the next morning. that was with liquor and beer combined though. i usually just stick to 4 or 5 beers now and im good :afro:



stinkfoot- im not trying to test my willpower to stay away from drugs, im just trying to test my willpower at.. not buying them lol. and saving money for oklahoma.

 

Hi..I'm the other one :2thumbsup:

 

The time to think about going to college was when you were in 9th grade, especially if your parents can't afford it. Good grades, high SAT scores, references from counselors and teachers=scholarship money.
Thank God my daughters started to think about college early. My daughter has already been excepted to two colleges she is considering, one of which comes with a $17,000 a year scholarship which is about 60% of the full tuition. With other grants, scholarships and FAFSA, her education most likely won't cost us anything.

Start hitting up all the grants and scholarships you possibly can and apply for FAFSA.
Although it doesn't sound as if you have the right reasons to want to attend a large university, at least if you want scholarship $$$.
I don't think they award scholarships for beer pong.

 

i dont wanna go there just to watch sports, thats just a plus. that would be quite a waste of money. im going to community college right now to get general ed out of the way and not pay 30 thousand dollars for it. i wanna go there because they have a good psychology field and i also wanna get the fuck out of calfornia for a couple years. but thanks for the input, i guess.

 

Don't quit weed, but quitting OVERINDULGING in alcohol is a good idea

 

I said I was gonna quit 3 times already...but good luck anyways:2thumbsup:

 

I quit smoking weed and only drink occasionally now.

smoking weed at first was hard to quit for me. because I knew tons of people who blaze and people always offered to smoke me out. but eventually I went around half a year without taking 1 hit.

now at this point I do not think I will ever go back to being a stoner again.

 

1) i thought the thread title was "quilting." i was expecting a completely different conversation.

2) if you're a stoner, going to a large college, you're not going to quit smoking pot. realistically, you're going to end up doing more drugs than you've ever done in your life. it's a good idea to give everything up until then though, for money saving purposes.

3) i don't know for sure about this particular school, but a lot of the big BCS schools charge admission to their games even for students. it's not like going to a mid-major school where students get free admission to all sporting events.

 

yeah it is not easy. you gotta change your lifestyle around a little bit.

 

I give you a lot of credit for realizing you've gotta quit. I do agree with those on here who are saying to quit now so when you go to school, it makes life easier when you are around drugs/alcohol/whatever. I quit doing drugs my senior year in high school because my grades were dropping too low and I couldn't have that continue into college. Partying in college is a lot of fun, but the repercussions of doing drugs while in school really isn't worth it.

 

Remember what happened to heroin bob...

 

I agree when i quit the alcohol, it wasnt easy i had to change alot of my lifestyle, even my thinking had to change, it was worth every day tho,
but i still smoke my weed and hash, I enjoy most every day without the alcohol,
