time of my life
A time when i had a great time was during spring break several months ago. I wasn't enrolled in school @ the time but some of my friends were still in high school. We formed a diverse group of friends i was the second oldest at 19 years old and the youngest was 16 years old. I didn't have very many friends because i have a hard time trusting new people. Also, many people even my own family members, are racist towards me because i am of mixed descent. This is one of the reasons why i really never fitted in with anyone @ my high school, Channel Islands, because they are all about their social," cliques" and if u don't fit in with the group u r not accepted. I was like an outcast and the only ones who i would hang out with r stoners because they are indiscriminat to any other affiliation. We are all different, we have filipinos, Indians, mexicans, whites, along with a variety a ages and we all live in different neighborhoods. There were even a girl and a guy who was mixed descent like me, which was a lil surprising. We all got together and we put anyone who thought that they partied hard to shame. We had our friends who lived in LA coming down to suburban Oxnard just to party with us on the weekends. We would stay up all night rest a lil, then wake up and drink before people had to live for abstract things like work. At the time one of my friends parents went out of town so we all stayed at his house for most of the week, sometimes 10 of us, sometimes 20 of us. personally, i didn't go sleep at home the whole week, in the mornings we'd ride out to everyones house, pick up some clothes really quick, then go back to my friends house to shower and kick it for more days at a time. It was so fun it was the best time of my life. I never felt so accepted and comfortable, or such a feeling of belonging. We have all gotten together occasionally put some of my friends parents were getting mad at all the time we spent together and we got seperated a little, but we all still are tied togehter by the bonds we formed and come together from place slike Irvine to San francisco. That lifestyle of not going home for weeks at a time continued and i eventually got kicked out from where i was living, but it wasn't such a bad thing because now i live with my aforementioned friends and we are like brothers and sisters towards each other.

Although stoners would not be my preference for friends, for the fact that I don't consume drugs, we all need to find that sense of belonging with someone.
