Still in shock

Listening to: brokeNCYDE - Booty Call Feat. E-40
Mood: Shocked

Today i came to a sudden realisation. New Zealand is full of drug addicts.
like PACKED WITH THEM
For some school work i was doing some research on Metanphetamine, commonly known as the drug 'P' and i learnt about its effects, appearence etc.

Later that day i was in town with some people who im rather well aquainted with, and i was discussing what i'd learnt with some of them. One of them, who wasn't listening very well snapped into the conversation with "P! Can you get me some"
This really shocked me for two reasons.

One. He was a little twelve year old boy, since when do twelve year old's want drugs? How does he know about 'P'? i went to primary school with this kid and was just utterly shocked

Two. He was asking me directly, like he expected me to have some. People who know me well know that im very against drugs and drug use. I almost slapped him..

When i was walking home i actually saw a guy smoking 'P' i recignised it instantly from my reseach. He was smoking it with a teenager, in the middle of a very popular area for young people to hang out. I was disgusted.

New Zealand has one of the highest drug abuse rates IN THE WORLD and i think it is a problem that really needs to be addressed. I know about... 50 people around my age who are on drugs, and i think its shocking!

Anyway, now that my mini-rant is over!
I'm going to leave you with some wise words.

HUGS NOT DRUGS!!
and
I love you like a fat kid loves chocolate cake.
Nuff said.
