Getting my first try

[FunkyMonkey]

Just make a foil pipe. You use a bic pen to make it. Anyone have a page that shows how you do that? Basically pull the ink tube half way out of the plastic pen tube. Wrap foil around the part where the ink tube and plastic tube connect, make the foil about 7 or 8 layers. Then pull the pen and ink tube out and you are left with a foil pipe with a perfectly shaped bowl. This is much better than smoking from a coke can.

Hope you understand what I'm talking about from that short instruction.

ahh but aluminum foil fumes reeeal bad when heated with a flame.
of course Ive done it though

FunkyMonkey Reviewed by FunkyMonkey on 01-03-2006. Getting my first try Well, I found this kid who sells the weed at my school (probably a second-hand), and he is selling me a $5.00 amount tommorow. Now, what can I expect from this and what should I do with it? I mean, I don't know anywhere I could smoke, so I was just thinking about putting on my food. Would that give me the same amount of high? By the way, I asked for an 1/8th and he laughed and said, "You mean a bowl?" Is this normal for things to be sold by a "bowl"? Rating: 5

Ok stalker man, I'll answer your questions!


So, how old are you? 14 years old
Do you know anyone else who smokes? Not any friends
How much do you weigh approximately? 190
Do you smoke cigs? Nope
What is the worst case scenerio if you get caught smoking pot?
Do you have any fears or apprehensions about pot? Lung cancer
What made you decide to try it out? Escape from reality.
Do you live city or country? Country

you forgot to tell me what kind of underwear you have on!
hehe just kidding,

Im one long winded mo-fo so get comfy man go take a piss and grab a snack lol.

For your first time I would think that you would want to be with someone else, just to keep your perspective and enjoy it with.
It is easy, when inexperienced, to have obsessive thought based on your apprehensions and you dont want to have an unenjoyable high. ( btw dont worry about cancer unless youre mixing it with tobacco)
Not that you need a babysitter while high but until you take it you never know how you wil react. Its a precaution I would advise for any 14 yr old trying anything. Its always better to have a friend.
(how did you come to settle on marijuana as something to try? what led you to it? )
My own personal feeling is that you should wait until you are a bit older before you experiment with mind altering substances but Im certainly not going to ignore you based on that. Bottom line is youll do what you want and its best to be informed.
I feel that at 14 you still have much "being a kid" left in you. you still are very much in a stage of self discovery. I think its better to discover who you are before changing who you are.
Marijuana is a powerful thing. Dont let anyone tell you it isnt just because it is green and natural. It has the power to enhance your life, or to do the opposite dependant upon your own psychological state at your age.
The fact that you want to try it to escape reality tells me youre not as prepared as you could be.
Nothing will help you escape reality, its unavoidable.
Whatever it is that you are trying to escape or avoid will be there waiting when you come down, possibly worse because you avoid dealing with it.
And it may well overcome the tone of your high if it is a big enough problem.
MJ is a wonderful thing that can give you perspectives on things you wouldnt normally have. It can give you insight into yourself and the world around you. You can have some profound experiences with it.


or you can abuse it, disrespect it, and just get high.

Too many people use it just like they would a case of beer, but it is oooh soo much more than that.

It is a plant that demands a high level of respect because of the power it holds. You can unlock doors in your mind, peek through some widows in your mind, and find places within you that you didnt know existed.
BUT some of these places are meant to be discovered in due time, not to be rushed into unprepared.
The best way you can start to respect it is to be educated. Read up on the basics of it here : http://www.erowid.org/plants/cannabis/cannabis.shtml
to get you started.
There are other sites you can read that are more specialized to spiritual, mental, and medicinal usage if you like.

My advice, deal with what you are trying to escape before you try it. It can easily become a hindering habit if you use it to escape reality/life because it becomes too easy to pretend your problems are invisible.
Basically, dont smoke if the risks outweigh the reward.

So anyway, feel free to email me if you want to talk more about that. I speak from experience friend, and Im 31 now. sage_wisdom@hush(dot)com

Moving right along...

If you dont smoke you might have some troubles inhaling the smoke so you want a small joint for your first try. That link I posted also will tell you how to roll one up. Make it a small one and take a few inhales and put it out, allow yourself to become accustomed to the feeling before lighting it back up.( meter your dose )
Since you are 190 lbs you likely wont have any issues with a 5$ bud. Its not enough to get you too fucked. But , like I said pace it out.
As others have mentioned, you may not feel a thing your first time. I didnt , many dont, but many do. Its a gamble to see which one you are.
So, dont go hopping on dads tractor and going for a spin hehe.

Living in the country you likely wont have too hard of a time finding a private spot.
Keep in mind when you go back in the house you will have the smell stuck to you so, take that into consideration if itll cause a hassle.
Likely your eyes will get red and glossy, especially if you cough while getting used to inhaling.

Dont be walking when you smoke it..too easy to get a headrush your first time. Have a seat and relax. And, stand slowly when youre ready to go. ( man I wish you were not doing it alone )
So, you should feel a nice relaxed state...like you just jerked off....followed by seemingly random thoughts. If a thought bothers you, just hitch onto the next one drifting by and dont dwell on it. Keep it positive. And dont smoke it while you are upset. It will dictate your thoughts and also teach your brain that pot is how to avoid problems.

So, enjoy the relaxed state, the euphoria and keep it fun.
Also, be prepared for the munchies.

I kinda feel this isnt the most flowing response I could give you. If Im confusing you email me and Ill try again.
Im usually pretty good with expressing myself but Ive got a bitch of a headache distracting me tonight.

so, have fun, stay safe.

peace.

If you're 14 and getting sold 5$ of weed, it's probably not good at all.

I didn't get high my first time and I smoked 2 bowls of schwagg, so don't go in expecting to get fucked up.

Make a water bong, here is a site: http://www.weedguru.com/bong.php
Weedguru.com --> How to make a bong.

There is other sites if you google, "How to make a bong"

Hint: Use a ratchet head and a gutted Sharpie for your stem and bowl.

...and of course the world becomes laughable.
things that were not funny before become funny. Things that were funny become hillarious. Dont be suprised if you find yourself laughing out loud or giggling uncontrolably. It is a common effect even for seasoned smokers, but especially for beginners.

[VoidLivesOn]

A five dollar worth here is called a sweet, or a nick I think.

Its about 4 bowls or so.

When I first started thats all I bought once a week.A bowl a day.

DO NOT USE A CAN.

If you can't find a pipe or anything or rolling papers then I guess if you just really wanna smoke make an aluminum pipe.Or a pipe out of a pen, google it on the net.

[GanjaBob]

we get "a bowl" for 5 bucks here , its supposed to be .5 grams, no real dealer would sell that amount its usually just if a buddy has a big sack and you ask him for a bowl or somthing

[BabyFacedAbortion]

Dont worry if you get fucked over, my best friends and I got jipped off for 65$ towards the begining of our smoking careers.

Still never got paid back..

you learn to be safer with money (it's only 5 tho) and more careful who you're buying from

[VoidLivesOn]

This is weird.

Here in my city you can get a sweet for 5 bucks.And thats a blunt right there.

[Smpthy4TheDevil]

Well, I found this kid who sells the weed at my school (probably a second-hand)

second-hand pot? wtf?

and no, it's not normal for it to be sold by the bowl.

[Syrus]

My advise:

Get a friend, and a 10 bag. or

get 3 friends and a 20 bag.
