Harmful Effects and Consequences of Drug Abuse
Drug Abuse destroys your family and makes them go through a lot of pain. It also costs you such things such as your job. Once you become addicted it is almost impossible to stop using them. Drugs lie to you and you become unrecognizable. Drugs kill your identity. Getting your friends to use them will destroy their lives, their families, and their family. You control your own life and you suffer the consequences for your own stupidity. Because of drugs, you may never be able to go out and take a walk but instead you will be in prison for the rest of your life. When it comes to drugs, help is always near. When you come to realization about what you are doing, take the time and recognize that there are people willing to help you.

This means that you must develop good sleeping habits. For example you should try going earlier to bed so that you can get enough sleep and won't be as tired in the morning.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
Student Success Statement
"A wise man ought to realize that health is his most valuable possession." 
Hippocrates 
This statement means that someone smart would realize that his health comes before all things. Without health, you can't really do much. You need a healthy condition to be able to do all the things you wish to do. If you are not in good health you are being held back from everything you ever wanted to do. Your own health is more precious and valuable than any object.
