Unicorn's Amsterdam Trip report

**Unicorn** · 04-06-2006 02:33 PM

Okay, as some of you already know, i went to Amsterdam for four days with 2 friends from Brussels (Yann and Manu). So here's a long report on this amazing journey

Saturday
It was already 2:30p when we arrived. We were very tired and decided to get some rest for a couple of hours. I had a brief childhood dream: i was running with my older sister in the beach, i was trying to catch her but she ran really fast... I was reaching my arms as if i wanted to hold her, but she was so ahead of me i could barely see her. I then stopped running when i realized i was naked. A smell of hashish woke me up, my roommates were already sharing a joint.

We went out to buy some hawaian mushrooms, we bought 2.5 grams each and washed it own with lemonades in a coffeshop.
Thirty minutes had passed, and i could already feel some effects. My heart was racing and i started to feel really hot. I didn't panic and started to relax and breathe slowly. Manu and Yann were already tripping hard and were laughing for no apparent reason. I personally didn't smoke the joint before and thought it was a bad idea to mix drugs. I was just happy i was really in control of my trip.
We decided to go out for fresh air, and i was amazed because it was already dark! How long were we sitting in the coffeshop?? I had no notion of time and space, and i said: "fuck it! Time doesn't exist anymore!" I remembered seeing my watch ticking unusually fast! It was very windy and i could feel the wind caress my skin. A very pleasant feeling.
I have a tendency to put my hands in my pockets when i walk. I could feel they started to get unbearably hot, when i looked down at my pockets, i saw it was on fire! i remembered screaming and thought maybe my lighter exploded in my pockets! I decided to look at my hands and they were so fucking red, i took a closer look and i could see fire coming out of my hands, but i felt no pain. I instantly knew it was my first real hallucination of the trip, and felt releaved. "Cool, i now i have the power to create fire" :bravo:
I turned around to look for Yann and Manu, they were behind me with two asian chicks. I instantly thought about another hallucination. I approached them and i felt really amused when i realized they were real. I later knew they were from HongKong, the first one spoke a perfect english and was easy-going, but i couldn't not understand the second girl. At first i thought i was the only one who couldn't decode the words she spoke, but a quick glance at Manu was enough to know she was speaking chinese with us. The girls were obviously very high on something.

Yann started to feel really bad and was obviously bad tripping. He wanted to go back to the room. I had to go with him while Manu stayed with the two girls, we set an appointment in a Jazz/Blues bar across the street. i bought a bottle of water and an orange juice for Yann and went up with him in the room. I explicitely asked him: "Yann, can you cope with it??", and he clearly said "Yes". I felt very releaved as he had many worse bad trips before. I helped him drink the orange juice and left him in the room.
The evening started to get very interesting. I had no idea how long i have been tripping. Each time i glanced at my watch, time was still running fast! I looked at the sky, and thought about how small i am in this amazing universe. "Tonight is gonna be special" i thought, "I'll finally get THE answers".
I joined Manu and the girls at the jazz bar. A band was playing in a very relaxed and blue-ish atmosphere. There was a surreal painting on the wall featuring a parrot with the weirdest eyes, and i was sensing he was constantly looking at me even when i changed positions! He started blinking at me, and i got freaked out when he started talking to me, he kept repeating something like "KWAK! KWAK! Aye, asshole"!!". I then heard what seemed like a paint brush' sound on a palette, and then some brown paint quickly covered the parrot's head. I could see the paint travelling in space before reaching the parrot. I looked around to see who did that, and i saw a sterotypical painter with a green beret. He was so concentrated on his hand movements, it was amazing... i was grasping the essence of artistic creation, i thought. Later on, i looked at the band and felt a real connexion, a harmony between the sounds they produced, the music they were playing seemed as a mental energy compressed in space, i could feel the bass going through my whole body, the feeling had the intensity of a thousand orgasms, and i think it was THE high point of the my trip

The asian girls asked if we wanted to share lines of coke with them, Manu agreed, but i was still light on my trip and sure didn't want to try any hard drug at this point. I went back to the room and started to read some Spinoza and Kierkegaard essays i brought with me. Never before had i completely understood what i was reading before that night. I felt i was completely in sync and sharing the head of two geniuses. I then went quietely to sleep and when i woke up the next morning, Manu wasn't there...

I'll write more reports on the following days later on..

Sunday
I was very lucid when i woke up at 11am. i remembered every single detail of saturday's trip, though i had a limited DR during the night. i remembered some small fragments of an extremely visual dream, but couldn't get hold of a larger pattern. Yann was still sleeping (and breathing.

).
Manu spent the night with the girls in a 5 stars hotel, and called me to join in for breakfast. The suite was breathtaking.

The girls were obviously very rich and I realized how poor i was! Though i felt no short-term effect from the shrooms, i had a feeling the coke was still kicking in everyone else. Manu was talking unusually fast and the girls seemed all ready to party again. We hung out for a couple of hours and called Yann to join us. He brought Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas with him

and we watched it again.
It was 4pm when we decided to take some Salvia divinorum (Yann had brought many doses with him), so we invited the girls to join in. "Great!!" i thought, now we're gonna be on the same drug level (comparing to yesterday) "This should be interesting". So we chewed on the herb for 10 minutes, and it was very amusing to see everyone expecting the effects to kick in. I was glad we were in a safe and big environment with plenty of food and drinks, as Salvia effects are known to be very intense.
30 minutes had passed, and everyone seemed high already, except me. I had two explanations: Either i took a lower dose, or i was the only one completely sober before (cocaine and hashish effects last for many days). I felt a very mild high, was very relaxed and lucid and had the feeling that *something* was happening, though there was definitly no hallucinations. I decided to be the trip's sitter to ensure the safety of everyone (Yann tends to do some very wild things), and that maybe i'll take another small dose an hour later.
The girls started giggling, so i asked Manu (in french) if he banged them the night before. He stepped closer and replied with the biggest eyes: "No, but i procreated with them", so i asked (still in french): "oh yeah? what's the difference?" He replied (with the most serious tone i've seen in him, ever!):"To Procreate comes from the latin word Procreare, which means to create. I basically created a feeling in me and inside them. Each one of them shall now bear my child. While to bang is like saying hello and leave..." Ookk lol,

i wish i had a voice recorder!
At that point, i said "fuck it, i'm no sitter", i had another small dose and washed it down with sprite. I lit a cigarette and everyone seemed amazed at the smoke patterns. Manu stood up and started to hold and caress a smoke figure, Yann disappeared in the bathroom (I thought he was unusually quiet), while the girls were talking to each other in chinese (probably about some chinese figures). 5-10 minutes had passed (i finished my cigarette) and BAM! i started to feel extremely heavy. The effects took me by surprise. My heart started racing and i could feel the blood pumping in my veins. I always had these temporary physiological symptoms before, but this time, they were SO intense and i was starting to feel sick. Fortunatly they didn't last long and i could now get back to business. The visuals were extremely vivid and i had a very good awareness of my overall senses. I thought about how our senses had the greatest potential to filter new realities, and how they become limited and dull in normal life. One of the girls (still can't pronounce her name

) opened the windows, and i noticed it was dark again! I didn't even bothered bringing my watch this time... The stars were very close and seemed to communicate with each other by glowing at different frequencies. I remember thinking about Spinoza's theory about God and Nature. And i felt that god is now, that special moment, those little imperfections of everyday life, god was present in our room, and i was really feeling his presence. I closed my eyes, and i could feel a very nice breeze tranporting me. No hallucinations, but a great overall feeling.
Yann was still in the bathroom during all this time! i went to see him and he was taking a bath with his clothes on! The water inflated his clothes and he looked like a human submarine. It was surreal. He seemed to look at something in the water, and when i asked him, he told me "I'm waiting for Spongebob to come up again" (LMAO the guy's 24 yrs old).

I went back to the room, and i heard some very strange music. I could only hear the bass and the synths. Manu and the girls were dancing and i joined them. Salvia is no party drug, but it was great! We later ordered a HUGE dinner (Lobster, shrimps, fries, etc.) and started really communicating when the effects cooled down. We spent the night in the room (ahem), while Yann slept in the bathtub...
