Our fourth day of SSIP

On our fourth day, ma'am Vicky lectured us about Methamphetamine HCL or commonly known as Shabu (C10H15N). She also let us read books about dangerous drugs and toxicology. She differentiated Shabu from Tawas(Potassium _______ Sulfate). Ma'am Vicky showed us a specimen and it is very much alike to a Tawas. But ma'am told us that if a Shabu is removed from its plastic it would be dissolved since it does not have a oxygen, while a Tawas if exposed to the environment would not be dissolved since it has a oxygen component. We asked her if how people used drugs, and ma'am said, "it could be inhaled, it could be eaten, or it could be burned/smoked and they will just inhale the smoke".

Methamphetamine is dangerous to our body. It could make us crazy and out of our mind. Now that we are still young, let us start refraining ourselves from harmful drugs.
