Peer pressure and I have a love hate relationship. Since my
friend group is pretty awesome, whatever I am getting pressured into usually
isn’t in any way harmful. Usually though, it is at an hour that I would rather
be sleeping, which to be fair is almost any hour of the day. So when I was convinced to go to The Dark Knight Rises Again, I knew that I was going to have
to get payback. The next day I had my opportunity. After climbing all morning,
Andrew was ready to laze around for the afternoon, but the wind was perfect,
and I knew that it would probably be the last chance to sail for the summer.
“You know,” I told Andrew, “College is a chance to do things that you wouldn’t
have otherwise done at the spur of the moment,” which was basically a satirical
version of what he had told me about going to the movies. Guess what? It
worked, and I don’t think either of us regretted it one bit.
