young to be concerned about being drafted and sent off to Vietnam. His only concern was about having fun with his friends and finishing high school. After high school, he planned to go to college and then start his career; however, both seemed so far away that it was hard for even him to think about them.
Adam became slightly rebellious like all young adults were at his age; he always liked to do things his own way.
One day his parents walked by his room, and when they turned and looked in, they were both shocked at what they saw. His room had transformed into a weekend hippie-den, decorated with cheap Indian rugs, and black light posters thumbtacked on the walls. There was a black light turned on that made the posters come alive with almost a 3D visual animation effect and the aroma of sweet incense floated gently through the air. The most disturbing sight was the color Adam painted the walls, it was a midnight blue, however the paint did not completely cover the walls and the original white color showed through, which gave an impressionistic artistic effect. The style of music Adam now preferred - psychedelic music, sounded like irritating noise to his parents, however, it was what all the teenagers were listening to and now it was blaring at full volume from his room.
“ADAM! Turn down your music, and what on earth did you do to your room?” his mother said with an extreme shocked tone in her voice.
All proud of what he had done, he said, “I decorated it. I was tired of it looking like a twelve-year-old boy’s room.” To Adam it was a masterpiece; however, his parents were less than pleased.
“I cannot wait until you move out so I can paint the room a normal color again!” His father just shrugged his shoulders and walked away, but Adam laughed.
Adam and his best friend Scott always hung-out on weekends. They always made a point to go out and have fun with their friends.
Although they were both popular with the girls, neither one had a steady girlfriend. They were still growing up and didn’t have the confidence yet, but it didn’t stop them from talking about them.
One evening after Adam finished his homework, he and Scott were talking on the phone, planning their fun-filled weekend as always. “Did you see that new girl during lunch period?”
“Yeah, she was cute, I think she’s a sophomore” replied Scott. “Hey will your parents let you use their car this weekend? I used my parent’s car the last two weekends and I think they might say something if I ask them again.” said Adam.
“Yeah, I’m pretty sure they will.”
“Jim’s parents are going out of town for the weekend, so he’s having a party,” said Adam. Jim was a good friend of theirs.
“That’ll be crazy,” said Scott.
“Yeah, I hope he invites some girls, it’s not that fun when there’s no one but guys there.”
From the next room Adam heard his mother call him, “Adam!”
“Hang on Scott, my mother is calling me... Yes!”
“Did you finish your homework?” “Yes!”
“Your father and I are going to bed; please don’t stay up to late, you have school tomorrow.”
“I won’t Mom, goodnight.”
Looking at the clock Adam could see it was almost 10 PM. “Hey Scott, it’s late; I should get to bed.”
“Yeah, I need to get off the phone too, I’ll see you tomorrow,” replied Scott.
The weekend came and Adam and Scott went to Jim’s house for the party of the century. When they arrived, there were about 50 people already there. It looked like it was going to be a blast; they noticed there were girls everywhere. “Scott, this looks like it’s going to be a very interesting party.”
“Yes indeed, it sure does.” They immediately ran into Jim. “Hey Jim, where’s the beer,” asked Scott. “Out back, there’s a keg.” “Can you introduce us to some of these ladies,” asked Adam. “By all means, follow me
