When people hear that I am twenty they just assume I am going out partying with my friends on nights that I come home at one in the morning. The truth is the opposite, I would rather go to my friends house in pajamas and watch Disney movies until 1 am. I would rather sit around a campfire, making a life time of memories that I know I am going to cherish everyday.

I want to be able to remember what happened the night before. Why would I want to forget all the memories that I made? I'm tired of being judged for not being a party animal. If I want to go out until 1am with my friends I am going to do it, sober. When people ask me, "aren't you twenty shouldn't you be out partying or doing drugs?" I get annoyed.

Those are the most immature people that you will ever meet.

I am not sorry for wanting to do things sober. I don't regret saying no drugs and alcohol. The best times of my life are the times that I have had sober, and I do not regret it. People need to stop being persuaded by other people. You don't have to follow what everyone is doing.

You can be you. Being you is the best thing that you could do for yourself. If someone asks why you don't party your reply should be, "I'm just being me", and they should not question you any further. It's your life and you could do whatever you want with it.

Don't ever think that your'e not of the "norm" if you spend a night inside sleeping instead of out partying.

Don't think that you are missing out if you are only in your twenty's and people are out partying you still have your whole life ahead of you. Don't be afraid to just stay inside one night and relax I promise you the party you were mad about missing is going to seem so silly to you in just a few months.

My advice to you is just to have fun. You don't need to party to have fun all you need are pajamas and movies, take my word for it.
