Things To Think About

Things to think about…..

• You are concerned about your image and how you look….
• You care about what your friends and others at school think about you….
• You want to wear nice clothes and accessories…..
• You spend time on your appearance, your hair is done, your makeup etc…

So why would you choose to drink alcohol?

Once you drink, think about this….

• You could get drunk…..
• You might vomit on your expensive new outfit….Now you could smell like vomit….
• You might create “high girl drama” and begin to cry so your fresh makeup has now transformed into a “raccoon like state” with mascara streaming down your face….
• You might make some bad choices with someone who knows you are drunk, and not likely to remember what you did or said…..So, you are easily swayed to do things while you are drunk that you would not do if you were sober. Know what I mean?
• You might get a “bad reputation” as a girl who:
  • is a “partier,”
  • is “easy when she is drunk”
  • is a “joke” when she is drunk
  • is “pathetic” when she is drunk…..

Do you really want to be viewed that way?
