The Importance of Drinking and Drug Use

My parents didn't drink and I've only ever drunk once in my life before college. This gave me a very warped relationship with alcohol. From the start I drank until I barfed every time. Soon enough I was doing drugs with them. You can guess what happened. By sophomore year I was kicked out. They just kinda guessed after I stopped coming home for holidays. Honestly I'm actually glad it happened. I'd like to think I wouldn't have done anything like it otherwise. It took place on one of my booze and dope filled binges. The real problems began when I left home for college. Not being particularly smart put me at a considerable disadvantage. My grades were already low
