Frogs and trees :]

Here I am AGAIN after a long hiatus. I've been super consumed with so many things the past few months, it's quite overwhelming and extremely draining. Emotions are involved EVERYWHERE and it's making things difficult and some things rather unnecessary. I really hope everything gets resolved because I never meant to cause any of this to happen.

So enough blab, lets talk GREEN :]

I have TONS to tell you guys. So first off, the roomies [Helen and Jenster] and I and a bunch of our other AMAZING friends took a road trip to good ol' Santa Cruz. While there, I got a chance to purchase a beautiful-Sant-Cruz-blown mid-sized bubbler. It's quite intriguing and I knew I wanted it the second I saw it. It has trees on it! TREES! and a frog who looks up at you in the kindest way as you take a hit from the bodacious bowl that it lies on. It hits wonderfully! And I hope that everyone that has used it enjoyed it as much as I do pretty much on a daily basis. Santa Cruzzin' was perfect!! <3
I also purchased a grinder. It's not anything fancy, but it collects kief, which is what I wanted. I bought the grinder locally and the guy at the shop gave me a pretty good discount for it. FYI: I went to the smoke shop near Little Caesar's on Chicago and University. He usually gives deals ;]

Now, as a few of you know, I've had Maui Wowie for for quite some time now. It is a really good strain, but I'm over it. I do love the fact it taste like fruity pebbles though, mmmm! A couple weeks ago, I got my hands on blackberry kush. Mmmmm, it was so good! It smelled earthy and had a very appetizing smell. I just wanted to eat it. hahaha. The taste was very interesting; it was very flavorful with each hit getting a little more harsh from the resin building up. It was definitely an indica. It gave me the munchies every time and for pretty much the rest of the day. lol. This strain was fun, tasted gooood, and looked wonderfully. It was extremely crystalized and had a pink-purple-ish tint to it. It was also very, very easy to break it apart which I was down with because I didn't have to carry my grinder with me everywhere. lol.

Spring...already?!

I haven't blogged since 2008!!! OMG! Apologies ALL around. hehe
A LOT has happened since then, but here we are, in March of 2009...already!! Geez!

Let me go into a few strains I've had over this period of time. I won't go into details, but I'll mention a couple things about the ones I can remember.

So, since the last time I was on here, I've had a few BOMB strains worth mentioning.

1. Waldo! This strain was AMAZING! It was a cross between cheese [the smell was SO similar] and bubba [my fave!]!! It was very tasty, definitely one of my all-time favorites :]
2. I had a small sample of Lamb's Breath, which was pretty good. I never really got a complete bowl from it; I had a limited amount so I'd just resort to topping off bowls with it!
3. I had some OG that was pretty amazing from Rochelle. For some reason, I remember that OG having a very, very strong odor to it. Very concentrated. It looked amazing, as OG tends to do, and I'm pretty sure it got me blown out of my mind.
4. I had some strains that I'm sure we are ALL familiar with: Purple kush, Grand Daddy Purp, Bubba [mmmm!], Trainwreck, etc.

This week is finals week. I've been super busy with school stuff, but I can't wait until spring break! My last final is tomorrow at 11:30. I'll be heading home to visit my family and I'm pretty stoked about that. I miss them. The second I get back, you'll have a full review, complete with pictures and all.

The weather is getting beautiful, lets enjoy it! :]

Where's Waldo?

Yo! Yo! My bad for the lag on blogging, BUT I purchased some amazing stuff on Sunday soooo a review will be coming soon. For the mean time, check out this article. Very cool.

It ain't easy being cheesy.

I first would like to apologize to my followers [and fans! hehe] for the super long delay. I've been incredibly lazy to blog, but I have some time right now to do it, so here I am. Nothing new really. My brand new, not-even-a-month-old-bong was broken when I was away one weekend...sucks. Boooo bong breakers! On a brighter note, I got to go home for Thanksgiving and that was really awesome! I've been semi-worried about finals, but honestly I just want winter break to come; I have a few things I'm looking forward to. Oh! We ventured out to Magic Mountain...that was fun!

Now, on to the greeeeens! I got a hold of some Cheese kush a few weeks back. This strain was different, unique, and really fucking tasty! Keon picked up some good-looking, tasting, and extremely sticky [icky!] white widow a couple weeks ago and Becks & Leo picked up an interesting hybrid: Purple HazexNY Sour Diesel [it had a great smell and an even better taste]! Now, lets talk Cheeeeeese!

The second I heard that my guy had Cheese kush, I knew I had to buy some. Even if it wasn't a whole 8th, I just had to have some. I've never heard of it before and I was immediately intrigued. And besides, I love cheese! haha. Cheese, the name says it all, it literally has that cheese stench; not so much smell. But there was something about its aroma that I just knew why they named it cheese kush. I just wanted to eat it all up. The smell was incredibly interesting, like no other strain I've ever smelled before.


The taste is kind of like a fusion of fresh cheese and Marijuana, thus very pleasant. The smoke was very smooth, not hard at all, allowing me to take massive hits! Defintiely smooth and delightful. Cheese is a light green color with compacted buds, its not brittle at all. Slightly sticky and definitely left crystals and hairs all over my fingers. This strain is very fun. hahaha. The high creeps up on you through your face down to your neck area. This is an indica and it feels amazing! Cheese made me non-stop laugh at times and it definitely made my day everyday for the entire 2 weeks I had it; no complaints here :]. Definitely brings up your appetite almost instantly...mad munchies! There wasn't really a burn out and its pretty potent. I liked the fact that it burned pretty slow. It allowed me to smoke less, getting me equally high and conserving my pot all at the same time! Fuck yessss!!

Strindu?!?

Don't let the title fool you. No. I didn't get some fancy strain called Strindu. I wish [if that even existed]. I got my hands on Strawberry cough and hindu kush this time around. Yummm! I got strindu by morphing the two strain names together. Clever, eh? lol


So, this post is a little different then the rest. As of November 4th, 2008 at 8:01pm, we have a new president of the U.S. He actually goes by the name of Barack Obama. I'd like to take this time to shout out ma boy! Word. lmao. History in the making! AND I purchased my 1st bong!! I was ecstatic! What a great Veteran's day, I'm glad I put it to good use! It's quite beautiful and I truly believe it suits me well. I must name it! Any ideas??

Anywho, I got a hold of some Strawberry Cough and if you ever saw Children of Men, you were as excited to have some as Keon and I were! This strain is sweeeet....literally! I'll be honest. The first time I had strawberry cough I wasn't too convinced for the mere fact that I felt a crash after smoking it. And I really hate that! Strawberry cough put me to bed, but only when I was lounging around! I learned that to fully enjoy the cough, you must be active! I was talking to some of my other friends that got it too and they got no crash, so I figured it must be me. lol.

The strain looks pretty. Nice, crystalized and with orange hairs all over! If you squint, you can almost see a little redish-pink [like a strawberry]. I wouldn't say it was dense. The 8th looked like an 8th [and it was! Wooo!]. As for taste...yum! Strawberry cough taste really gooooood! Like strawberries or berries in general. It has like a creamy berry taste as you're exhaling the smoke. It's almost like Strawberry Cough tickles my lungs with her creamy-sweet smoke, whose flavor resembles strawberry, berries or kiwi!! Mmmm!

The high was good and last a few hours. Very heavy in the head...it's a Sativa! Like I said, at first it made me crash! But once I got used to it, no more crash!! If you're active with it, you'll be good. It's almost like you balance it out...the effects with your doings...it works out. The smell is sweet. I'd say a mixture of earth and fruit. lol. Strawberry cough has a high potency for being a sativa...yeah, it fucks you up. The only real complaint I had as well as my trustee colleague Keon, was that it burns rather fast, unfortunately.

And now for the hindu. Story with this strain: I wasn't even supposed to buy any more pot. I had enough to last me for a week or so, but the second I heard my boy had hindu kush, the purchase was made. I spoil myself too much.

Hindu kush just sounds amazing, doesn't it? All exotic and what not. lol. I absolutely love the way hindu kush looks. It's all fluffy and greeeeen! The greenest of greens! I love just holding it in my hand or just looking at it...it makes my heart warm. It's sticky-icky [lmao] and I love buds that leave my fingers with some sort of residue. It smells wonderful! Earthy, earthy, earthy! It also has that straight up kush smell. Like if someone were to open up a container of hindu kush in the same room as you, you'd know. The taste is earthy and spicy, and the smoke feels almost like hash. The kush taste is highly present as well and it gives the hindu a kick in your pipe.

The high you get is a powerful body buzz that starts in your head [brain!] and moves down, making your whole body tingle. In others words, by the time you realize it...you're stoned! And I absolutely love that surprise attack it brings! BAM! The high tends to last for hours; about a good chunk of your day/night. Potency is high, no pun intended. hehe.
