First smoked weed like 12 or 13 years old but didnt really get into it until about 16

Experiencing new things, fun, to get high, mind expansion, boredom, fun
Do you believe that certain illegal drugs should be either legalised or decriminalised? If so, which ones?
Weed, LSD, shrooms, I almost want to go as far to say all drugs should be decrimalized because of my libertarian political views but I don't have any eminent problems with hard drugs (heroin, meth etc) being illegal.

Yes, some atleast

No
Do you feel that there is a connection between the creative arts and drug culture in any way? If so, how?
no but I think they both attract the same types of people... so maybe thats a yes?
Do any of the musical groups you listen to influence your decision? If so, how? And what music do you listen to?
No, atleast not conciously. I listen to jazz, blues, rap, hardcore, noise etc.
Have the attitudes presented in films towards drugs made you think about them in a different way? If so, please circle whether it positive or negative.
Positive
I think they are often romantisized in film and literature, but not on a real wide scale.

Film and Television Music Visual Art Literature Other (Please specify)
I guess the previous answer is better for this one. I think it film and literature mostly and maybe a little in music
