PLN 9

I read Heritage High School in Littleton Evacuated. It said that there was in ill student and they found a white powdery substance in his locker. The school officials had issued the school to be evacuated and then they are still deciding on whether to have classes tomorrow or not. Six people, two teachers, and four kids were sent to the hospital. This may not seem like a big deal, but it is to me because one of my best friends who is closer than a sister to me goes to Heritage and I would be devastated if she was in trouble like that or sent to the hospital. This is really big, because it involves drugs, and drugs are a horrible thing. It's not just teenagers that do drugs. Many adults do too. And it's bad, because it influences your brain and kills a lot of your brain cells. It's said that one hit of weed is just as bad as four cigarettes. So when people say, "Weed is better for you then cigarettes", it may seem that way, but it's not. Both are bad for you. You are only given one body and one brain, so why would you want mess them up? When you’re young, you can do a lot of things and get away with it, like cracking your knuckles. But when you’re older you'll probably going to have arthritis. So my main point is that why would you do drugs or drink achohal when you only have one body and one brain to use?
