It's winter break; fuck yeah!
HAHA. Ohhhhhhh man. I have slept about 2 hours in the past 30+. I get home, take a nap, my mom walks in the door. She hands me, with an excited look on her face, a handvelope from one of her trainees! "Smell it!" I take the envelope (containing a Christmas card), bring it to my nose...and the unmistakeable dirty green nostalgia-inducing scent of die ganja appears. Her trainee gave her pot for Christmas, lol! Within 5 minutes we're smokin it, within 10 minutes I'm feelin it, within 45 minutes I'm flying and laughing my ass off.
Then she regales me with her hilarious stories of her stoner youth. Of smoking when she was sixteen at a football game, about how we both get HYPER when we're high and hate people who dont, of her mom finding a picture of her in a car with a bag of pot on the hood and "wanna party?" on the side. My grandma thought it was cocaine, and asked "what do I hav to do to get you to stop", so she said "when you lose 50 lbs I'll stop, but if you don't lose much I won't stop much, and if you put weight on afterwards, I'll smoke again". So, my grandma lost 50lbs. Weird story I had *no* imagining of, so funny because I had never heard my mom ever talk about that.
Now I'm lovin some good trance, watchin my visualizer, groovin, recovering from an absolutely beautifully mindmelting trip to mindcircus (gabriel & dresden remix) and "life rolls on" by the kottonmouth kings. And stoner bands are always amazing to listen to high already. I've was in some pretty fascinating places, like when I was "seeing" by using my ears like ears for a kind of sound-depth perception. It's like...echolcation except I don't send a sound out, I just wait for something to make one and "see" that. This is why the creatures in Pitch Black couldn't see you if you didn't move; you weren't making noise. It's so cool to feel that and know it instead of having to simply hypothesize it and never feel it. And the advantage of it is it's a new sense so fun trance-inspired visual still seem as real as the actual music! So cool.
I also just talked to my mom's friends, that was pretty damn funny. One told me about the first time she got high with her son. "It's one of the steps into true adulthood". Haha.
Btw, an exhausting semester and week just ended, and I have a month long break until I fly to France; yes, I AM going to a Université in France next semester. l'Université de l'Haute Bretagne II" through CIEE Rennes. So excited. I am really positive about my near future right now and it feels great. Well, haha, of course it does.
Hope you all have amazing holiday seasons!
