Alcohol

Alcohol is a drug. Most people do not want or care to believe this fact. I feel that alcohol is an unneccassary supliment. People drink way too much, get drunk, then do something stupid. I do not see any fun in that. I've had no acohol before. I do not trust it.
Someone i knew, that was very close to me, had a very bad experience with acohol. THis is the reason that i will never ever drink. Will my friends name is Adam. Adam was 18. He worked at a fast food restaurant. After closing at work one night one of Adam's older friends invited him to a party. Adam thought it would get him some points with the college kids if he went, so he did. Adams older friend was Pete. Pete had just turned 21 and was throwing a huge party at his house to celebrate. Petes' parents were out of town so they didn't have a clue about the party. Pete had beer everywhere. Adam couldn't help but try one becuase everyone else was drinking. Adam thought that he would look stupid just sitting there not drinking. He drank one beer, two beers, three beers , and before he knew it Adam had blacked out. Pete notice and went to see if he was ok. Adam didn't respond. Pete called his mother and frantically asked his mom what to do. He ended up taking Adam the the emergency room. Adam had acohol posioning. The doctor told pete if he hadn't of brought Adam in when he did, He could have died. THis is why i will never drink. There is too much at risk.
