Those High Moments

Over the summer, I got my wisdom teeth removed and I was exposed to what it's like to be high. I was never high, but when getting wisdom teeth removed a patient gets pretty darn close. The medications in the removal duplicate the same spacey, drunken behavior one has when they are under the same effects of drugs. These effects are actually seen throughout YouTube in videos of highly medicated teens. I was soooo excited to see what I was like under these drugs.

Considering the fact that I can't smell (that's another story) my friends and I would joke about me being able to smell rainbows when I was on these drugs. This was actually really exciting! Just thinking about being able to smell SOMETHING was exciting for me. Thinking about being able to smell rainbows had me like:

After thinking of many fantasies and talking about it for months the day finally came. My friends and I hopped in the car and we were on our way, but all I could think about were... Rainbows. Thinking about smelling the different colors was more exhilarating than a Runner's High!(yet another story)! But seriously stop and just imagine smelling rainbows... (Btw if you say it smells like Skittles you are wrong. Skittles are how the rainbow tastes, not how it smells. Get your freakin' five senses right.)

I eventually woke up in the office without my wisdom teeth. I missed them, but I felt completely fine. I felt like I was acting completely normal, not loopy at all. When my friends came in we started talking and having a normal conversation. They were actually really weirded out that I was behaving like I normally do. We eventually came to the conclusion that I was always high. That's when it happened. One of my friends asked me-
Friend: Can you smell rainbows?
Me: *sniff* *sniff sniff*
Friend: Oh crap...
Me: No!!! *begins to sob*
This was then followed by my friends trying to comfort me and me awkwardly petting their hands and telling them how beautiful they were many, many times. We then came to a new conclusion that I am a more amplified version of myself when I was high.

When the drugs wore off after a nap and a couple miserable board games I began to wonder why I was so disappointed about not being to smell rainbows. I have come to the conclusion that it's because I was unable to achieve a goal. This was my chance to smell (even if it was a slight hallucination of a chance) and I missed it. I missed my chance to achieve something. This is why I challenge everyone to work hard and achieve their goals. Let's all strive to smell rainbows!

Ps. I'm not saying let's do drugs. Don't break the laws and stay in school. (Unless you've already graduated)
