so following with the plot of the site, your character should be caught up in something going on in his or her life. here's a list of ideas. feel free to use any of them, or make up your own. your character can be caught up in more than one thing. i'll continually add to this list if i get more ideas. feel free to suggest any, and i'll add your ideas too!
drug use. defined as using drugs on a regular basis, to the point of interfering with every day life. your grades might drop, your performance at work might be lacking, or you may start to withdraw from family and friends.
alcohol abuse. an unusual amount of drinking, or underage drinking. an alcohol abuser will drink to get hammered. you may make dangerous decisions because of intoxication, and start to fall behind in other areas of your life because of your alcohol consumption.
fornication. sex outside of marriage. maybe you're in a relationship simply for the sex, nothing else. you may be in high school and your parents have forbidden you to have sex, but you do it anyways. maybe you take chances and have unprotected sex on a regular basis.
stealing. taking something without the consent of the owner, without the intent to return the item. you may get a rush from stealing, or you may steal out of necessity. it can become an obsession, to where you feel the need to steal something from every place you go.
pregnancy. whether it's planned or unplanned, pregnancy takes up your entire life, whether you're the mother or the father. maybe you're a young teen, and you only forgot a condom that one time. or maybe you're happily married and completely ready for an addition to the family. either way, your life will never be the same.
lying. compulsively telling untruth. you may lie to your parents about the things you do behind their backs. maybe you lie because you can't stop, you constantly feel the need to cover your tracks or bend reality.
partying. a party every once in awhile is ok, but maybe partying is interfering with the rest of your life. all you think about is where you're going to drink, shoot up, and hook up later on tonight. you stop caring about important things like school, work, and family because you're too busy partying.
addiction. an addiction easily consumes you and makes the rest of your life unimportant. maybe you're so busy with your addiction, that you completely shut yourself off from the outside world. no matter what friends and family do, nothing seems to help.
cheating. maybe you spend all of your time making sure your significant other doesn't find out that you're getting a little extra on the side. the guilt may be catching up with you though, you're starting to feel worse and worse about yourself. or maybe you cheat in school. maybe the only way you can pass a test or get a good mark on homework is to copy someone else's work or pay them to do yours.
school. maybe you're a major nerd and totally obsessed with getting straight a's. you may be struggling in school, and trying your best but you just can't make the grade. maybe you're one of those people who tell their friends they can't hang out because you're too busy studying for the test tomorrow or working on that project due in two weeks. school totally takes up your life, and you don't have time for anything else.
work. maybe you're always staying late, or constantly working on things even while you're at home. or maybe you work two full time jobs just to pay the rent. work seems to take up all your time all day, and by the time evening rolls around, you're too tired to go out with friends.
hobby. you may be completely wrapped up in a hobby, like photography or skateboarding. it takes up all of your spare time, and you blow off work and school so you can practice. sure, it may be tons of fun, but the important things in your life are feeling neglected.
family. maybe you're so busy with family events, or taking care of a sick family member, or just with your family in general, that you don't have time for friends or for yourself. it seems like you're doing a favor for a family member, or attending a family dinner every single day of the week.
boyfriend/girlfriend. a significant other is always super exciting. but maybe your friends are starting to feel like you're blowing them off to be with your new bf or gf, and it's getting old. or maybe your bf/gf takes advantage of you and has you constantly doing them favors. you may be in a controlling relationship, but you're too afraid to end it.
friends. you're so busy hanging out with friends all the time, that you haven't seen your family in ages. maybe you have problems saying no, and your friends seem to have to running around 24/7. you're so caught up in your friend's lives, that you don't have one of your own anymore.
