I love that people in our town enjoy getting together.
During the summer, we have concerts in the park nearly every weekend.
On the off weekends, they show movies on sheets draped over the rocks. The park is always bustling with things for the community to do together. Being the younger group in the town, my friends and I use this as an opportunity to get high and relax away from our parents. Recreational marijuana is legal in our state, so we aren’t doing anything illegal, but our parents still don’t approve of our use. I guess in a way marijuana is still illegal for us since none of us are twenty-one, but it wouldn’t be much worse than underage drinking. Last weekend, my friends and I arrived at the park ready to have fun. We had pisces up a disposable vape pen that was discrete and easy to use. We also had about a dozen cookies that were laced with marijuana. After a couple hits from the vape pen, I was already beginning to feel the effects. I was a little light-headed, so I begged off the next time they passed the pen around. I had realized, too late, that I had also eaten about four of the cookies we had bought. I was not just light-headed, but I was also getting giggly and tired. I knew that I wasn’t going to be able to make it back home, if I didn’t sober up. One of my friends told me they were all planning on camping out in the backyard and finishing up the marijuana we had bought. I was ready to leave.
