It’s the weed
Had to look it up, apparently it was Benedryl. Not sure what Apple was thinking but she's actually hilarious. Too bad some people gave her shit for it.

Although, a lot of us totally used the "seasonal allergies" excuse with our folks when we were young.
She did go to college for art a few years later. I also had "seasonal allergies" and whet to school for art and design. Most people in that major had that same affliction.
I personally don't really care, except for the fact that she was 15 at the time and that's not a good time to take mind altering drugs. That aside I think it's just a humorous situation and result, which I just laugh about.
