Because Everyone else is doing it

In High School, everyone seems to mature by sophomore year. Sophomore year, is the year of the beginning of
partying, drug-usage. Almost everyone I know smokes pot, drinks alcohol, or smokes cigarrettes. Whats with everyone nowadays? In my place, everyone is some sort of a follower. Why do they smoke? Why do they drink? They think its helping them, its not. Its helping them increase their risks of some sicknesses. They're slowly killing themselves. Everyone keeps telling me, "It's a stress-reliever. Its helping me." with a grin on their face,I'm so sick of it. My friends do these things, too. Who knows? They might get me into smoking cigarrettes! My father already smokes, he ALWAYS smokes. He promises he'll stop, but he said that a long time ago. My boyfriend smokes pot, and I don't like it when he does that. It really irritates me. Our generation is getting worser.
