#drug usage

Yreah

I am a grown-ass adult, with a full-time job and a retirement fund. I am explicitly enrolled in the continuing and professional studies program, which is targeted at non-traditional (i.e. older) students.

I am still required to complete this stupid-as-shit alcohol wise program, and which involves filling out this stupid guess the percentage task.

Ma'am or Sir. I have been out of school for a decade.

I have no idea what the current drinking/smoking/drug-use culture at US colleges is like, and I don't fucking care. The 18 to 23 crowd can spend their entire existence so high they're seeing the fabric of the universe, and I wish them a great time.

i know weed isnt anywhere near as bad as what ive done but

it stil feels kinda bad. like im relapsing

There was this kid that was a part of Kaden's crew. A city-dwelling Hyomeo. He's a rogue, a bit off kilter, and completely unpredictable. He's known for something that has the crew keeping a close eye on him. Selling illicit items. They don't really want to confront him either. He did pay to be there. As long as he doesn't hurt anyone, they let him pass. Kaden does his usual razing, Jacobi does his usual threats of violence, all pretty standard stuff. It's nothing they can't handle. The crew, Kalel, the twins, their cousin and her boyfriend, and Nova and her Norman peer make their way outside to watch the stars. They talk about teenage nonsense, mostly confronting Jacobi and Nova's peer about how they're "enjoying" the party. They even call out Nova's peer for making out with Kaden's wild friend and make fun of the obvious hickey on Jacobi. That's when Kalel blurts out something odd about the stars, completely out of nowhere, very unrelated to the conversation. "I'm trying to count the stars, but I keep losing track; I'm trying to find the final number" “Kalel, what?” Kira had been lying next to him looking up at the sky. She sat up to look Kalel in the face, her heart sank. “If I count them all, they all know the final number. The biggest number ever! How can there be more than that!?” “Kal… are you high?” “…..I’m freaking out.” With that Kalel strung up and bolted, sprinting toward the back entrance of the warehouse. “Shit!” Jacobi shot up and gave chase, followed by the rest of the crew.
