Me too. It was such a relief.


In other news, YAYYYY, I'm going to see Cosmic Gate in Chicago on Nov 19th..

so i saw a flier up today saying that the YMCA was looking for artists of any medium between the ages of 15-25 to take part in an event called Art Beat.
and its been weighing on my mind ever since. im an "artist" in that age range.....but ive never tried to take part in any art event ever. i just paint for myself and show my friends. none of which has any knowledge on the arts. im kinda scared to try and participate, but i think i should give it a try.

ive been thinking about my life and "career path" for a long time now. and i know it has to be something in "the arts". but i dont really have any knowledge or connections. so i was thinking of taking a fine arts foundation course soon, not just to improve my skills as an artist...but to learn what careers are open to me, and what im most suited for.

trying to participate in this art show would be a big step for me. but im so freaked out of rejection. honestly, i lack confidence in what i created. i think it looks good to me, and my friends say they are good. but to have real "artsy types" judge my work freaks me out.

btw my avatar is of a painting i made recently while very buzzed

Lots of memories.

That is sooo wrong

I think you should too. It sounds like a relatively low pressure (for a newb in the art world) event. I don't mean to just spit out cliches but, regardless of whether you find a career in art or not, the experience in itself could and probably will be rewarding provided you put yourself out there and check out all the other artists you can. Fancying myself something of a musician since middle school, I knew I had to play on stage as much as possible because I knew I'd be playing all my life and would be playing more as I got older. And I absolutely despise the anticipation/anxiety before a show. Constantly going through my head is shit like "I'm gonna fuck up I'm gonna fuck up, everybody will know and laugh and think 'wow that dude kinda sucks'". I've gotten over that shit significantly through experience, (because it ends up being tons of fun once we get started and I screw up a whole lot less than I assume I'm going to before the show). And even when I do screw up, people don't notice, and if some do, they don't care. People always seem to be much less critical than I'm afraid they will be, as I'm sure is the case with you sometimes, right?... I've found that avoiding strangers that I share a passion with because of some kind of fear or apprehension always leaves me with a degree of regret. Go for it Stabbo.

Did shrooms last night for my bday..pretty sure I ate half an 8th. Nothing really happened besides getting a really good body high. :/ Maybe I was placeboing?

Lame.

You just didn't eat enough.

That's the thing though...last fall I ate way less than that and I got giggily and clouds looked uber trippy.

Varying potency from different species. It could also have been an old batch or one that was oven-dried.

I like to eat an eighth at a minimum for a solid trip. A good trip in the range of 4-7g. Never went higher than that, don't see much reason to.

Mushrooms are at least more consistent than acid. Last time I ate one hit of acid and had a great trip, it was perfect. This time I ate two hits and wish I had eaten 4. Now I've still got 2 mediocre doses and don't want to take them til I can get two more.

Why not take it with another psychedelic to make up a full dose?

And yeah, people really cheap out on acid these days. Last time I dropped (on Radiohead's King of Limbs blotters -- I'm expecting to see a lot more of this design circulating) I ate 5 tabs for a mild trip that left me wishing I'd eaten a few more.

The caps and stems did look really dry. Not to mention they were so hard I could barely bite into them.

well my dealer quit, lets see how long it takes me to find a new dealer.

That was intense. I was gonna say to tell her how you feel but then you started talking about poking out her eyes...lmfao

IMO don't mess with a chick who already has a guy...if she wants you she'll pursue you.

I haven't been around much. School has been busy, but rather enjoyable now that I get to take classes and do research on the things that I enjoy. Anyway, I hope all is well on this site.
