straight edge life style

Maybe sxe can come up for a term that is the equivalent of gold star for people who have never "had" to claim.

In any case, I never claimed but I was with the krishnas at the time of krsnacore which was allied with the straight edge hardcore movement in it's heydey. We also swore off the whole thing straight down to coffee, tea, and chocolate but we didn't have the awesome music, unless we were krsnacore krishnas. I wasn't but I thought it was a really cool scene.

Lately I have been exploring that genre of music that I was only marginally interested in my youth.

For the record i am no longer a krishna and I drink.

i used to not give much consideration to the concept of sxe as i am not, nor have i ever had a strong desire to be, but it's something that i totally respect. drugwise, i try my best to steer clear of them but sometimes i get into trouble. boozewise, however, i have gotten very into that lifestyle in the last year or so to my chagrin.. however recently i've fallen for a straightedge boy, and i've sort of become really intrigued and impressed with it, more than ever. i totally admire any movement that puts emphasis on finding ways to be happy in this world without the use of substances, and i've found myself striving to find satisfaction within myself, or at least figure out what in me makes me want to do these things. it's such an incredibly beautiful, positive thing.

I'm almost straight edge by default. I just don't like the taste of alcohol and smoke makes me throat and eyes all hurty. It's kinda weird. You wouldn't take me for it either.
