Bad Company                                               Alone

Reflection:

This quote is telling us that if you have a decision to choose studying over partying then you should study, even though it would mean you were by yourself. An example of this is that your friends invite you to a part where you know there will be drinking and you have to study for a test tomorrow, you should study because it will affect your grade. Another example is if you're offered a cigarette is is better to leave even though you would be by yourself. In addition an example is if you can choose to either hang out with a group of people that ditch school and are drug addicts then you should be alone and focus on your education. In the end if you hang around bad company then you will be harming yourself instead of having fun. On the other hand being by yourself is not a bad thing because you can focus on your education and receive good grades. By focusing on your education you are ensuring yourself a good future. Even though you might decide to hang around bad company it is never too late to change your mind. The place you are in does not matter as long as you are CTR. By CTR you can ensure that you are always in the right crowd.
