I heard that smoking cannabis helps some people to study, True?
Been watching "How High" have we?
[align=center] Trying something out guys...[/align]
It helps me from being distracted when studying...
[align=center] I'd forget I was studying and just zone out in my book. Cool new Avatar by the way Matt..[/align]
Haha yeah How High's crack up.. But no.. I'd say for the majority of people not true, although I guess some people can study high. I just cant really be fucked aye.
I found it useful to read the textbook straight the first time, and stoned and taking notes, for the second time through. I would get unique insights into the subject while stoned, which I often based my papers on. The notes were so I wouldn't forget them (pot DOES play havoc on the short term memory). The teachers loved my papers- a Creative Writing prof said she saved my papers for "dessert".
I also would write my papers high and later "clean them up". My spelling and verb agreement suffer a bit when I'm stoned. :wtf: Stoned, I would just let the ideas flow. I was "granny" to the stoner crowd. Partied with them a lot- showed the kids that a 50-something granny-lady can clear a 4 foot bong! I had a blast in college! You know where it got me? I graduate with honors!:thumbsup:

Cannabis increased my mathematical and creative writing skills. Especially math. I can't explain it, but man, the combination of being stoned and trigonometry and Calc 1 was just awe-inspiring. I missed the first six weeks of trig because of a scheduling error, and when I did finally join the class, I was in *way* over my head, was sure I was going to fail. But the more I smoked, the more I understood. Caught up with the class, then pretty much passed 'em by, ended up getting not just an A but an A+. I might very well have failed and given up on math entirely if it weren't for pot.
