So, I don’t know about you, but I don’t like hearing people pee, and I definitely don’t like other people hearing me pee. IT’S FRICKEN AWKWARD DUDE!!!!!!!
Drug testing was not a fun experience.
First of all, I wake up at like 7 in the morning during the summer. And the first thing I usually do when I wake up is pee. But, when I have to take a drug test at 10 and I only pee like 3 or 4 times a day, I don’t want to pee right when I wake up. Because, if I were to pee when I woke up, I know it would’ve taken me a longer time to urinate in that cup when I got to school.
So, when my body decided to be a word that I’ve been told I’m not allowed to say in the paper, and wake up at 6:30 and I had the EXTREME urge to pee, I was annoyed. I had to lay in my bed for 3 hours before I could get up; And when I finally did get up, I was jumping so that I wouldn’t pee myself then and there.
And you know what annoys me? The fact that the school schedules everything at the most inconvenient times for me. I wasn’t even sure I would make it to drug testing because I didn’t have a ride. Both my parents work about an hour away and they’re not at home between 7 in the morning and 5 in the evening. But shout out to the people who’re the real G’s and give me rides when I need them.

But back to the day of the testing of the drugs. So, I get to the school and I turn in all my forms. Then I go to get the cup that my pee will eventually end up in. But, when I got into the bathroom I was already so uncomfortable.
I mean, who wants to spend part of their day peeing into a cup in a bathroom full of your peers?
I was one of the lucky ones that was able to fill up the cup on my first try. I really had to pee, so it wasn’t that hard.
But then when I handed the cup back to the lady who was just chillin’ in the bathroom, I was kind of grossed out. I mean they didn’t have gloves. That’s nasty.
Also, why the heck were we not allowed to use the sinks? I don’t understand the true point of taping them off.
Man, I really feel bad for all of you who had to be there for like an hour because you couldn’t fill up the cup. That had to suck to keep being told it wasn’t enough.
Also, one thing I really don’t like about all this is the random drug testing. Like I know that I’m not personally doing drugs, so if something were to show up in my system, it would have to be a mistake. But, my favorite food is poppyseed chicken. What if I get chosen to take the drug test the day I eat poppyseeds? I don’t want to seem like I’m doing some drugs just because I’m enjoying good eatin’.
Imagine if that did happen. I wouldn’t even know how to react if I was told I was doing drugs- I most definitely am not! I mean, I went through the D.A.R.E. program, I know drugs are bad.
But hey, that was just my experience. Although some of you might have thought drug testing is a good thing, I think of it more as an inconvenience.
I can’t change anything though so carry on and remember what Mr. Pelloni taught us if someone offers you drugs- Say no, Tell why, Offer ideas, Promptly leave.
