When I smoked with my family, I would feel so 36 and good that nothing else in the world seemed so 37 . I thought that smoking weed (烟草) was okay since many of my family members and people at my school smoked. 38 ever happened to them. 39 I started smoking weed a lot more during lunch and after school. I never thought 40 of it. At that time I just wanted to smoke. Then I began to 41 in school. I would 42 classes, come home late and spend all my money. I would spend 43 8 to 18 dollars a day. I never thought 44 that marijuana (大麻) had a bad effect on those things. Maybe my coming to class high (神智恍惚) was the reason why I was failing or coming home late. As I continued to smoke marijuana, I began to notice that I would always have the strong desire to smoke and that I would get 45 cigarettes if I smoked those, but I don’t. 46 I have learned more about marijuana, I have 47 the amount of marijuana that I use. I don’t want marijuana to be the most important in my life. I’m not smoking every day, and not spending as much money. Since I have 48 on my habit, I am 49 more money. I’m ready to go back to school and do good, so that I can make myself 50 . Everyone is always saying how weed 51 your mind and how it solves problems. I think it only brings more 52 . Marijuana is not good for your body or your brain. I’m not trying to tell you not to smoke, I’m just letting you know that marijuana can be 53 to your health, and 54 it may cause some long term negative (负面的) effects. Help yourself now, before it is too late. I don’t want to lecture anyone, just 55 my experience with you.
