Should I Try Marijuana?
Question by yep: Should I try Marijuana? 1. I’m in college, and I wouldn’t do it often, at the most once every few months. 2. I wouldn’t do it after I graduate. 3. I’ve never had any drugs other than alcohol and have never smoked. 4. I drink on weekends, but I’m careful about it and have never done anything I regret in the morning and I’m still a virgin. 5. I’m Catholic and morally conservative but politically liberal, so I’m guessing that my parents “no drugs” lectures are still pulling at my conscience. 7.
