I even know a girl, who through out her highschool career, smoked almost everyday, and she got accepted to Harvard. And yeah, never smoke to solve problems. Smoke because you want to have a little fun. I think that if you need to smoke or drink to get rid of your problems, you should be seeing a shrink. I've also taken something of a vow - that I will never write any music or draw any crazy art while stoned. I don't want to have to rely on drugs to get my creative juices going. Admited, they do, but I don't "document" it.
