I Already Know

This is sad. My mother has seen a few too many of those anti-tobacco/alchohol commercials. You know the ones where the parent is driving the kid somewhere and they are teasing them about the boy/girl that they like. Then out of nowhere "remember what we talked about". And the kid goes "of course, no drinking and no smoking". Then the kid gets out of the car and is happy-as-can-be.

Nobody, well, at least nobody I know is going to respond their parent that way. I already know the dangers and consequences of drinking and smoking. They drill it into our brains at school. At this point its up to me. Its really not going to make a difference if one more person tells me that smoking leads to lung cancer, and drinking leads to a lot more bad things. I already know.

I can't wait to be out on my own. I need to do my own thing. I'm 17 years old. I'm leaving for good, in less than a year. I need to experience things on my own.

I know I've written that before. I'm just so tired of being confined here. I just want to be free

Me
I'm a 17 year old girl. I live in New York. When I first meet people, I'm pretty shy, but once you get me talking I won't shut up. That's about it. If you want to know more about me read some of my diary entries.
