Anyone else take notes of stuff you thought about while high? I admit I have a whole a whole note book full of notes lol :H
PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN! Just kidding. I for one never even consider doing something as tedious as writing in a notebook when I'm stoned. The only writing I ever do while stoned is for school.
I jot stuff down on slips of paper that I then carry around for weeks before transferring to notes I continually forget to consult. I love being high.
Every day at school I end up doodling in my notebook when I am high instead of taking notes. Does that count since the pictures kind of express what I'm thinking (if what I am thinking about is a snowman with 36 spider legs and the face of a fish)?
I love drawing in class when I'm high. I've gotten to the point where I usually just bring my drawing pad and occasionally write some class notes on the side of the paper. Everyone always asks me why my backpack is so light. But I don't have a notebook for thoughts. The first time I got high I wrote down all the effects I felt, though.
the only things I write down high are my songs, and notes of things I need to do the next day, I figured out i'm a procrastinator but if I procrastinate it into a note i'll do it. always a day late..
My philosophy with writing music is simply this. If a riff I come up with is not good enough to remember while trying to play it later, it was never good enough anyway.... If that made and sense.
I actually started a journal that way. I've never been able to write a journal before because I didn't have anything worth writing about (at least to me). Then one day, I was high as fuck, got a good idea and started scribbling it down. Now I write in my "ideas and views" journal, sober or not. it's really interesting to read later. I write about my views on politics, religion, spirituality, the world, etc.
dont get me wrong writing and playing music while stoned is great and everything but if you cant enjoy writing and playing sober or think man when i get stoned im so much more into this... that just sucks
yeah writing down the major breakthrough OMG THE TRUTH!!111 idea, odd thing, id write it on anything - since i considered it important. i remember in my old house i woke up one morning after a heavy all night blaze in my room, there BRIGHT COLORS written huge on my desk with a perm marker, i remember i was thinking that without colors life would lack emotion and varity, so i made it be my own rule to wear really bright things... including black trainers with lime green neon laces, bright green shorts, and a bright yellow t shirt... << hahaha summer was awesome, for once i looked like a hippy in my own little way xD
I have mixed feelings about it - I want to note something that seems significant, but somehow - *writing* it seems very difficult - I get off track, or my thoghts get wound up - I get overly concerned with how accurately I'm able to capture a thought, and then I get a bunch of different related ideas that are 6 skips ahead. I don't want to forget things, cause sometimes weed gives you some amazing insight. I havent' figured a good way to take notes about what I'm thinking without the taking of notes making me crazy!
on the contraire i actually write, play, sing, record, and listen to music more when im sober. usually ill just come up with good topics while im high then write songs about them when im in school the next day.
Back when I was new to smoking my buddies and I would have a notebook that we would pass around every couple of minutes to the next person during a session. When you had the notebook you would jot down the funny or strange things you would hear someone say during our conversations. It made for a great read later on.
