Why I smoke

I started smoking bud in 8th grade with one of my best friends growing up. I remember he got some from one of his friends and asked me if I was down to try it. It felt super bad at the time but teenagers love doing bad things right so I was excited. He ended up making some ghetto ass pipe out of a chap-stick bottle and an apple earphone piece, it was actually kind of genius but still ghetto. I had a little walk in closet that we smoked in, I remember he changed instantly and I turned into the babysitter. I wondered why I didn't feel high but I didn't think too much of it because I had heard that some people didn't get high the first time they smoked. Maybe a couple weeks later my friend gets some more bud so he comes over and we smoke again. Same exact thing happens, I end up being the not high babysitter. After that I wasn't too thrilled to smoke so I stopped...until Freshman year.

Freshman year comes and a lot more people are smoking so I decide to give it another try with that same friend. He had been smoking quite frequently at that time so he had a good idea of what he was doing. I was finally smoking out of a real pipe and I realized I had been smoking wrong the whole time, I was just keeping the smoke in my month and not breathing in deep. He asked me if I was high and he asked at the perfect time because it hit me and I felt like I was in a tv, it was crazy and I loved it. After feeling what it felt like to be high I started smoking more often with my friends but it was still very occasional. Junior year comes by and I have this batshit crazy girlfriend driving me crazy. Looking back on it now I think she is the reason why I started smoking daily, she hated it and I loved that she hated it. Anyways she dumps me(thank god) and I continue to be a stoner. I had always enjoyed smoking by myself rather than with others, it gave me the privacy to destroy food and dance to my music. Senior year comes by and i'm smoking more than Junior year but this time I had found my passion and that was making music. Music was much more clear to listen to when I was high and it helped with my rhythm. After smoking for so long the novelty of getting high wore off as well as the rush of excitement before getting high but it still helped me with my music. So now as a much more mature person I smoke to hear the details in music and to think much deeper about things.

Tell me why you guys smoke in the comments or if you don't you can explain why!
