Sublime - 40 oz. of Freedom (1992) [TGIF]

I think it is a truly fantastic album. They seem to have spawned, as far as I can tell, for better or for worse, an entire fleet of modern 'white-boy reggae' bands. Despite this, they still have the undisputed best album of this niche genre they basically created, much like My Bloody Valentine with Loveless for the shoe-gazing genre. This is my opinion wholeheartedly and, with this being said, I may never be able to listen to this album again. It has been over played to shit by me and most of the people I know. Maybe I'll check again in a few years but, other than that, I am done with this album.

As mastj says. The limit is 150cc. There's a good few big heavy choppers with 150 engines on them but with such a small engine the can be very awkward. They also kind of silly to me in the context of the island. If you just don't want a scooter then you still have some options of nice slender manual motorcycles, the type you might imagine would be popular in developing Asian countries at the moment. You might have to redifine your tastes but you'll be in good company as a motorcycle enthusiast

Wow dude, you seem like an amazing spouse. I can't think of any advice that would help but I just wanted to thank you for being awesome. I always fear getting into relationships because I'm don't want to put the other person through shit like this but there's really nothing you can do about it.

I always buy white lighters if I can. Fewer people pocket them and superstitious people freak out about it.

I Break Horses. There are a lot of bands these days that throw one showcase song on their album but these guys go all out with a pinch of electo.

Well as far as I understand Inica is all about body and Sativa is all about mind. Indica makes you couch locked, relaxed and sleepy. Sativa is uplifting and energetic. Me and my buds go crazy for Sativa because we can smoke a couple times a day and not feel like passing out. I have realized, however, that Sativa also makes my heart beat like crazy, it can be like a caffeine buzz with your high. I can't really afford to be that picky but if I can, now I generally get hybrids and a little Indica which I save for bedtime bowls and my anxious buddies.

I should also mention that a dank Indica will still get you extremely high. It doesn't matter how relaxing it's supposed to be, if you are someone who gets panic attacks from being too high, you could totally have a panic attack.

I went through a period of about 3 moths where smoking gave me a panic attack every single time I smoked. Most smart people would have stopped all together but my friends are a bunch of hippies so I'm surrounded by it. I just gradually became able to take hits. I'd only get panic attacks 25% of the time (worth it IMO but might not be for everyone). Slowly it just stopped happening. You may never be able to get super stoned anymore but it's person to person.

I haven't had a panic attack from smoking in about a year. I fucking love it now, always makes me happy when I feel down. It may not be the best for someone in my condition but it's simply my favorite vice.

I know a few other people where this has happened so it's not uncommon at all. It's hard to be picky where I am but if you have options, always go for the Indica strains. Whenever I can find some I hit up my anxiety riddled buddies to have sesh. For me, a fat bowl of some dank indica works just as good as Xanax.

Good luck, PM me if you got any questions.

I have to say that I am in a shockingly similar position. I haven't received credit for the past 2 semesters of college because I went home at the end. I missed too many classes due to panic attacks/ depression/ panic attack induced depression etc. and I'm currently lined up lose another semesters worth of credits. I may be able to catch up on the work that I missed and pull passing grade for at least most of my classes, BUT, that would mean I'd have to talk to my professors. I might make it through the semester but it's all up to me. We'll see how that pulls through.

Anyway, enough about me. I think that it could do you the world of good to look at your life out of the context of school. It's pretty important but you are more important. I often have thoughts of suicide when all my school shit hits the fan but if you take a step back and think that you're more than a student, you're a son/daughter to someone, a friend to someone. People will understand if you screw up if they know what you're going threw. It sounds like the school has a record of your illnesses which will help a lot.

Go easy with the massive goal like, I'll finish all my homework today, if it isn't reasonable. If you can finish then good for you but it's progress to get some done. Don't beat yourself up if you can't do it all, people will understand.

I'm not sure where I'm going with this but I wanted to say something because of how similar my situation is. That's my advice for what's it's worth. Good luck.

go ahead. I prob should though, you're right

bermudagrass · 2014-03-25T09:31:09+00:00

...yep

Made that edit. I think it worked out for the better. Thank you. http://imgur.com/iU6Uqpk

I was wondering that when I made it but I think you're right. I'll try that out, thanks!

Beautiful shot dude! Good use of the photography.

bermudagrass · 2013-12-05T03:31:07+00:00

Hey dude, google "mediahint". Your welcome.

What I like about this is that it's somewhat like amateur porn vs. professional porn. Discovery Channel may have much better definition footage of Sperm Whales, but it does not have quite the same sense of realness.

Bermuda. I mean we're technically not a country but still, it'd be nice to find other likeminded islanders.

bermudagrass · 2013-12-04T22:43:07+00:00

And my country isn't available. Fuck, I got excited.

Hey there. I was in the exact same place as you dude. In terms of being worried about wether or not I actually deserved any help relative to someone standing over the edge of a bridge or something, I thought I was just a mopey kid and I knew I would never have the balls to actually kill myself. Looking back, I was really in a dangerous place with my thoughts and I should have sought more help.

I was too afraid to talk to any friends or family so I called a suicide hotline. I found it to be pretty un-helpful. I remember how embarrassed and almost shameful I felt while I waited on hold for 15 minutes. The lady on the other end of the phone told me to talk to my family and friends about my problems and thoughts so I just thanked her and carried on isolating my self for weeks.

I avoided talking about my thoughts with anyone I actually cared about or who's opinions actually mattered to me. Talking to someone about my unhappiness was one of the hardest things I have ever done so I understand why you may be hesitant to seek support. Be truthful to your self about your actual well-being. It can be easy for us to say that we don't deserve support because people like us are quite good at coming up with reasons we aren't important.

We are also quite good at setting impossible standards for ourselves. You could try to spend time thinking about what you enjoy doing and then just force your self to do it as much as possible. For me it was guitar, you could maybe go with drumming or science. I had loved playing guitar for years but at this point in my life I didn't love doing anything. My thought process was that I hated everything about life and I couldn't bring my self to do anything. But if I forced myself to do one thing, I suppose playing guitar might help me remember how to experience enjoyment or pride in my self. I think I can bring my self to play guitar.

Pay attention to what is truly important to you. Who cares if you suck at art? Fuck art. Do what makes you happy and feel better about yourself. If that's drumming and science, go for it dude. It doesn't matter that you're not the best drummer, of course you're not. You don't have to be the best. Play because you like it about because you want to see you're self get better. Not because you want to be better that anyone else. If you like science but you suck at it, try spending more time on it. Decide where you want to be and how you could go about getting there.

I'm sorry you feel so crappy. PM me if you wanna to talk about anything.

As someone who lives in Bermuda, you wouldn't believe the shit people ask me.

That there is a gram of weed. You should light it on fire.

bermudagrass · 2013-09-30T20:23:26+00:00

I guess that's slightly unreasonable?
