1.) Drugs
10/06/06 It was my friend's 16th birthday and someone who we knew pretty good introduced us to the magical green plant, also known as marijuana. It was at a football game and we sneaked off during halftime to try it. But fortunately and unfortuttally i've been hooked ever since. For those who say it's not addictive, they're wrong because it can become pschologically addictive if you do it long enough.
2.) Computer
My mom's gateway computer in 1997 i think was the year but i'm not sure.
3.) ATRL
I was actually just browsing the internet for the past TRL countdowns and I stumbled accross ATRL back in July.
4.) Halloween
I was a clown when i was 5
5.) TV, what was on it?
Earliest thing I can remember is some Mario and Luigi move for some reason
6.) Barack Obama
I don't really remember
7.) Dating
I really wasn't much of a talker until high school so the earliest was probably just last year in my junior year
8.) Drinking
I'm not much of a drinker but the first time was in 8th grade with a couple of my friends after a band rehearsal
9. TRL
In 2004 when I finally started listining to music

1) Drugs - I tried it when I was a young teenager, but I really smoked weed for the first time a couple months before my 17th birthday, and I smoked out of a really big bong. I. Was. Gooone.
And Mad-Hatter, [my personal belief is that] it's only psychologically addictive if you really allow yourself to become addicted to it. I've been doing it ever since my first time (not everyday or anything) and I'm not addicted whatsoever. Stoners normally choose to be stoners from what I've seen (and some of them are the nicest people you'll ever meet, as a matter of fact), and quitting or going without weed for a period of time causes little to no withdrawl symptoms, really. [Heather on Charm School doesn't count, she was already a mess with alcohol and emotional problems on top of it, and even admitted in the extended interview after her expulsion that she's pretty sure it's the alcohol that's caused the most problems with her] Sorry this was unnecessarily long, haha.
2) Computer - Oregon Trail, man. What kid who went to Elementary school in the 90's DOESN'T remember that!?
3) ATRL - I was looking up TRL statistics in 2003 I think. I returned several times and ended up joining in 2004.
4) Halloween - I was a cat when I was 3 :P
5) TV - I honestly have no idea. But in the oldest home video that I know of, I'm watching Family Matters, haha.
6) Barack Obama - Probably in my AP Government class last year. My teacher went apeshit with the whole "woman vs. African American" thing.
7) Dating - Haha, in 2nd grade I fell in love with this girl in my class who was the exact same height and weight as me, and she though I was cute too, so she was my "girlfriend" and I was her "boyfriend" until 4th grade :P. She ended up being the valedictorian of our class and we still talk on occasion.
8) Drinking - I had my first beer when I was 12 or 13 probably. First time I really got drunk was a couple years later and I had whiskey, bourbon, rum, some green mint stuff, and a combination of some of them. Needless to say I kind of went balls out. But no pukage!
9) TRL - Sometime in 1999 when Freak On A Leash was on the countdown. That much I remember.
10) Christmas - Again, I was 3. I remember I was wearing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles pajamas and our tree lights actually played music. We lived across the hall from my grandparents in an apartment building so my parents, brothers, grandparents, a couple relatives and myself all got to spend Christmas together, it was pretty awesome. I remember getting a slinky and getting wicked excited over it, too.
11) New Years - I seriously don't know. The only ones that I can even remember any of are 2000, 2001, 2007, and 2008. I've never even gotten drunk on New Years [I don't know how I've managed that, haha] so I don't even know why.
12) Video Games - Super. Mario. Bros. 3. Hell. Yes.

And then you started stalking me.
I'll only comment on that one since I don't care to go back to the other ****. I first posted on TRL By Sarah in 2000. I think I joined ATRL in 2001 when the two sites merged. I MISS YOU NATHAN!!!!!!!! (Aggy and WillaBBad 4EVER)
