<p>While I don't like drugs, the incredible naivete in this thread is quite amusing.</p>
<p>im pretty sure that a lot of kids in my wisconsin school use it too. its not just the kids you would expect to be using it, but some of the top ranking students too. i never knew it until last year when all of a sudden some of my friends started talking about doing drugs/alchohol. that was one of the most awkward conversations of my life. i was so unaware, i mean central wi??? since then ive figured that at least half of my friends do it and 75% drink. oh well.</p>

lol ya, I like all the "I heard that marijuana (I'm surprised that pot hasn't been used once iin this thread, rofl) makes you... "
hahahaaha</p>
<p>^seriously</p>
<p>People here in SoCal don't even call it pot anymore. I call it either: green, bud, herb, weed, or ganja</p>
<p>lol.. hows this.. theres nothing better to do in this wretched town than to..</p>
<p>oops</p>
<p>williamhd - you're from SoCal? what city?</p>
<p>LA, and u?</p>
<p>same here. it'd be funny if we went to the same school!</p>
<p>haha this thread is hilarious. bottom line: PEOPLE AT PENN SMOKE MARIJUANA, GANJA, WEED, HERB, TREE, GREEN, ETC. its not a big deal though, so that should be enough explanation.</p>
<p>I think it's hilarious that people still hold the misconception that good students=no drugs. haha if only that was the case. :p</p>
<p>"same here. it'd be funny if we went to the same school!"</p>
<p>What part of LA do you live in? Do you go to H-W?</p>
<p>no, i don't go to H-W. omg!!! i just figured out what H-W was!! i know someone who goes there!! (haha, sorry, i get excited when i make connections lol) i go to BHHS. <-- i think you can figure out what part of LA i live in lol.</p>
<p>it's actually been proven that if you smoke when you're younger, then stop around mid-20s or so, it helps you remember more when you're older.</p>
<p>(when you're high, your mind is in overdrive and so you're creating more and more mental pictures and absorbing it in more. when you stop, it all kind of comes back after a while and you're like "ohhh yeah. i remember that. weird.")</p>
<p>um
and also my boyfriends roommate was a huge stoner all throughout high school and made all A's. she now goes to a college that's 100% paid for by the school, and still has straight A's.</p>
<p>Different people react differently to the THC in the herb. It's all about brain chemistry. I know my "high" is most likely completly different than your "high". Our bodies react differently. </p>
<p>Brain Chemistry. It's interesting stuff. </p>
<p>And to chibiajiajin, I know one person from my school who now goes to BHHS. I'd imagine you don't know here. I actually don't go to HW, but with the amount of kids they send to penn each year, i thought that the odds were that you do. My brother went there and now goes to penn, he was one of the 16 in his grade! I go to XRDS. Im not sure if you have heard of it.</p>
<p>I'm pretty surprised that so many people on here don't know the effects of weed. And dooit is totally right...people arent calling it pot. Or weed, green, herb, bud, ganja is one of my favorite cause i never hear it. I'm wondering if there are people on here who smoke who just aren't willing to come out and say it because of how many people on here obviosuly don't, and because their parents are members. I heard Penn is ranked as one of hte highest for top schools with marijuana use.</p>
<p>DogDay..are you sure about the stomach churning thing...I've heard it messes with your hypothalmus and thats why you eat a lot. Because you don't ever feel full...and everything tastes so good.</p>
<p>Fromdistantstar that a really interesting fact. I'd like to see where you got that from I've never heard it before. One of hte most rediculous things ive heard is that it helps reverse cancer..often confused with takes away the pain associated with cancer treatment..</p>
<p>I'm not ashamed to say I smoke. </p>
<p>I've smoked at least twice a week since summer. With soccer starting i am going to start cutting back on the smoking part and am starting to eat more brownies. </p>
<p>I do experienced some short term memory loss, which can get annoying and kind of worrying, but I personally believe weed has spiritual benefits that out weigh the side-effects. Of course I am not the typical Penn applicant.</p>
<p>williamhd, if we both get into penn...ill be sure to look for you so we can smoke a bowl</p>
<p>For sure man. My bro has an amazing setup there. Hopefully I get to inherit some of his memorabilia.</p>
<p>there's a good head shop downtown, "Wonderland." It's got anything one would want, and it's just one SEPTA ride away.</p>
<p>Wonderland...good tip..haha..what kind of memorabilia you talkin?</p>
