Only you are going to decide what to do with your life. People will try to guide you based off of what they believe, but what you do or do not do rests entirely on your shoulders.
Personally, I'm not a fan of making up a bunch of myths about drugs and drinking. Honestly, weed and beer aren't that bad for you even though they are illegal for you to do. If you get caught though, its your choice and its your a**. You can drink yourself to death / be stupid enough to drive drunk and that could kill you, but that's about it.
The thing I think that is so silly about making marijuana illegal is that it tricks unsuspecting people into believing the harder drugs are just as harmless. The only way weed is really going to hurt you is if you're getting it from some source you don't really know or trust and they laced it with something else (like formaldehyde or something) to make you think its better quality than it really is. Not the same for the vast majority of other illegal drugs
Anything harder than that is iffy if not just plain bad news and quitting things is REALLY friggin hard. It all seems so easy in high school, but you could just be really screwing yourself in the long run.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend doing drugs. One of my friends from high school wound up homeless and dead on a bench at a rest-stop from an OD on coke.
Doesn't mean that it happens to every one, but it DOES happen. Don't let peers bs you into thinking otherwise.
But its your life, live how you want to.
