Effects Of Jr Sr Weekend
On the evening of May 17, my friends and I arrived at Atlantic beach for Jr Sr weekend. The master plan for that Friday night was to go down to the beach and mingle with friends. As planned, we all got dressed in our bathing suits and headed down to the beach. When the sun went down we knew that it was time to go back to our hotel room. As we were walking back we seen some other friends that we knew and they were waiting for their room so we invited them over so they wouldn’t have to wait inside of their car. “That Was Very Big Mistake”. My boyfriend and the people that we invited to our room bought some weed and alcohol to my room and we all participated in the act of drinking and smoking which resulted in us being caught by law enforcement. As a result of Jr Sr weekend, my mom almost got arrested, everyone that was in the room almost got arrested, I was emotionally distressed, and I had to leave the beach.
My mom almost got arrested because the room was in her name. We were all minors drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana. When we were asked who brought the liquor for us, I spoke up and said “My mom brought the alcohol”, of course I was lying, but it made it a whole lot worse. The officer looked at me and said “When your mom gets here, I am going to put her in handcuffs”. The only thing the officer wanted us to do was come clean about everything and they wouldn't arrest my mom . We all came clean about smoking and drinking, and who brought it for us and they let my mom have a talk with the police and we all went home.
Everyone that was in the room almost got arrested and also had a lot of things going for them. Most of us were Jrs and Srs, but there were some freshmen and sophomores. The seniors...

...As a result of my negligence I will not be able to enjoy Jr Sr weekend with my classmates this year. It is such a big thing to me because everybody gets together at the beach before graduation and hang out. This time I will not be one of those people who gets to have this privilege. I learned that my parents letting me stay at the beach at the age of 15 years old was a privilege, and I messed that up by doing everything that my parents told me not to do. When I got dropped off to the beach my mom told me not to do anything to mess up her name or my life by doing something stupid. The most important thing I learned was one of the 10 commandments, “Honor Thy Mother And Thy Father”. If I wasn’t so hard headed and just listen to my parents then I wouldn’t be in the situation that I am in. Jr Sr weekend is in 2 months and I will not be able to enjoy it with my friends.

    Eighteenth birthdays are a time for celebration and good times. It was my friend’s big day and she wanted just that. She asked her parents for a party, and like most teenagers she wanted alcohol to be involved. In order to keep her house and the people inside it safe, she had to make a few precautions before the party. These rules ranged from keeping the music volume moderate, closing the windows, and warning the neighbors beforehand. The party was under control and everyone was being courteous and controlled. Around midnight, two new guests walked around back through the sliding door and crashed the party. Unfortunately, they weren’t just people we forgot to call, they were police officers, and once they entered they immediately began arresting my friends. Luckily, none of us were charged because the police officers lacked probable cause for entering the house. I thought I would never see that kind of police harassment again.

Questions ran through my head, “why not? I already told all of my friends I could!” I asked. He just stared at me and said “It is very dangerous going alone and I don’t want you to get hurt. End of discussion” and that was it. I flew up to my room and slammed the door because I was so angry and I started thinking to myself that it was so unfair.

    After that event, I made things very clear what I would never do again. From then on I never did something just because everyone else did.
