Prompt: In “We Real Cool,” the speakers make choices that seem exciting, bold, and rebellious, even though those choices lead to consequences. Write about a moment in your own life when you followed what looked cool or fun, only to realize afterwards that it wasn’t the smart or responsible path. What influenced your decision, and how did your perspective change later?

 A time I followed what looked cool was when I went to a party. I thought it would be fun because all the cool people went to it. I ended up just looking after my friends and didn't have a good time. I expected it to be like what I see in the movies, but I got let down. It made me uncomfortable being with people who were irresponsible. It changed my perspective of what people think is fun.
