It's like everyone around me is falling into a hole.

I don't mean this towards anyone specifically. Really, I don't. But just lately it seems like my friends and acquaintances are just going to bigger extremes and doing worse things. People I'm seriously close with are just shocking me no to end. It's really making me sad to see good people with brains and beauty throw it away for something such as a high. Or coolness. That shit doesn't fly with me. I don't care the excuse. People reading this might think I'm a total hypocrite for writing all this, but listen. I like to have my fun. I like to go out. I like to experiment. But only to a certain extent. There's only so many parties you can go to and so many drugs you can do before you realise that it's not life. We are not in college yet. We are in high school. Enjoy your childhood for as long as you can because it's never going to come around again. Keep this up and you will never fall out of the drinking everyday funk. I think it's time for people to realise what means the most to them right now. If it's not school or your closest friends or your family, we have a problem here. I'm sick of seeing people act like they're wanting to flush their lives down the toilet. This is really hurting me. I feel like staying home and watching movies or going shopping with my mommy just isn't considered good enough anymore. It's not "what are we doing tonight?" it's "where's the party tonight?" Save all that bullshit for college when it doesn't matter as much. Life is short. Childhood is not forever. Sure, you want your freedom. Who doesn't? But it'll come sooner than you think. Enjoy your family and friends and youth while you can. It'll all be gone one day. All of it. And you won't even see it coming. Make good choices, please. I don't want to see anyone I know's name in the obituaries any time soon.

It's 10 o'clock. Bedtime. Please think about what I said.
