I guess there isn't much point this post as far as security issues, but I'm pretty pissed.
I spent the weekend at home and had just gotten back to school (dorms)with some tasty buds for my head. Jack Herrer, Silver Haze, O.G. Kush, and Chocolate Chunk. After I put my stuff away, i broke out the buds, was about to grind and roll when I hear a knock on the door. "RA, please open up." It took me about four minutes to get everything into the safe and they were getting pretty impatient.
I sliced the top of my hand on the underside of my bed, putting everything away. Then I guess the RA on duty came into the suite, and smelled it in the air. I wasn't even smoking, just fresh buds. They tell me that no matter what I say, I'm getting written up for the smell, as is my roommate, who doesn't smoke, or condone it, but puts up with me because I'm pretty chill to him in return. I told them I was grinding up herbs, with my herb grinder and thats what the smell was, and explained I didn't smoke in the room, I was going to take it outside. Now I have to go to Judicial Review and meet with the Dean, get letters to the parents and all kinds of shit. Here I don't drink, and haven't been partying at all since I got here, and I get busted for...not really doing anything. Then I'm gonna have to do all kinds of shit, and I'm gonna have to watch movies about the dangers of marijuana.
When I meet with the Dean I plan to explain to him that I smoke marijuana as an alternative to drinking, because i don't enjoy killing my braincells or poisoning my body. I might have to give him a lesson in 'da buds.' I plan on being completely open about it because I feel that what I did was not hurting or negatively effecting anybody, and does not deserve punishment at all. I'm a chemistry student, and I don't slack off, i'm active as an artist, photographer, writer, and musician, and I'm getting written up for the smell of fresh marijuana which would have done no harm, but is now causing harm because I got caught. I know its not a big deal, worse things could have happened, and I didn't get anything taken, but I feel violated, fucking assholes. I brought up the point that they obviously understood that what they were smelling was fresh herbs, as opposed to burning herbs and offered them to take a whiff, which they declined. I also asked how it was that they were trained to detect marijuana, to memorize the scent of something you've never seen or used yourself might be a difficult task. What was their training like from the college to detect the smell of marijuana through a fucking 2 inch thick metal door? Surely to remember a smell well enough to detect it through a 2 inch thick metal door, you would have to be exposed to it multiple times. Did the school get marijuana from the government to burn for them multiple times? Probably not, because they can't even get it for legit experiments that would actually be worth doing. So the RA's who have been given the authority to bust me, have used it multiple times, or at least been well exposed to it (still equally guilty though if they consider my roommate guilty for 'being exposed to the smell'). Should these people be given this kind of heavy responsibility and authority, considering that they are just as guilty as me at one point. I mean, its like O.J. in the 90's being able to lock someone up for murder, just because he wasn't actually convicted). Fuck that. I don't think that would go over too well.
I keep everything in a safe, thing weighs a ton, portable, and has a keylock. I also keep that inside another container, usually cover the bottom of the door with a towel, and rarely if ever smoke in the room. I'm certainly not trying to get caught, I don't even smoke in large groups (as most people I know who do, get busted.) I've talked cops on two occasions here, out of writing me up/giving me a UPM, and I can't get the lame ass RA's to give me a break. Wouldn't even just offer me a warning. This was my first (that I know of) offense. Hopefully my room mate plays it cool, otherwise I'm pretty fucked.
So I probably sound like an asshole, or just stupid. But whatever, I just smoked some tasty buds and I'm going to just try to take care of this later. Just wanted to share my feelings. Nothing better to do? How was the Superbowl btw? the puppy bowl?
