I’m turning 18 tomorrow and I feel like time has flown by so fast. My parents are throwing me a huge party, my dad’s idea, of course, and it’s nonnegotiable because he wants his business partners and rich friends to show up with gifts. If you’ve seen my previous posts, you already know my dad has a bit of a greedy streak, lol.
Most of my family smoked, so it wasn’t really peer pressure so much as “I’m 18, I can now do what the adults do.” And it felt “cool” to buy a pack. But then I didn’t like it.
But yeah, that was almost 30 years ago. I can’t really justify it.
