Greetings forum!

I finally got the cojones to really take the big step into the beyond. I don't have any syrian rue with me so I bought some green tea (Jasmine dragon pearls) from a Tea shop in town. Green tea is a weak maoi.

I drank about 3 cups in quick succession to hopefully get a large amount in me and waited about 10 minutes. I then packed my bowl and took a big rip.

Classic trip beginning, things started acting weird. Walls melting.

At this point, I took a new hit pretty quickly which brought me up another level. Something weird happened, my vision flashed really quick and the wall i was looking at strangely had "depth" to it. When you look at a wall, it almost appear that the wall had some color lines appear that allowed it to appear further out than it was. Very cool.

I came down at this point to ponder what happened. I drank some more tea and this time. I took a look at the bowl, looked at my sitter, and then said, "Look out spirit world, I'm coming over!". Took the first hit.

The room proceeded to look strange for a second but I didn't notice because I took another huge rip.

At this point the room stopped tripping. Everything was slightly blurred like I had taken my glasses off (still wearing them). However something laser like appeared in the empty void inside my room. At this point I noticed this colorful thing appear in the distance. I think I saw two, but I wasn't sure. They looked like very brightly colored three prong claws with tails that followed behind. Except that the entire brightly colored claw machine was made up of a million tiny gears all working together. I wasn't afraid, but there was a bit of nervousness. The machine things all stopped immediately closeby. Mind you I am still in my room and can see everything around me. This all happened in the empty space between my bed and ceiling. I reached out and tried to touch it, but I couldn't quite touch it. The thing looked like this:http://cdn.theatlantic.com/static/mt/assets/politics/the%20claw.png
but imagine a ton of little gears working in place of a much larger entity.

After that, they disappeared and I saw what seemed something trying to poke me. Like an extended finger directly above and in front of the bridge of my nose. I took my finger and did the same thing and meet it. This time, I went "Boop"! I have no idea why I did that.

After that, I could see in a small field of view through the space above my bed. Almost like looking through a window at a crowd. I could see what I thought were a lot of shoulders but no faces. Something tried to show me something and I said to it, "You're going to have to explain what you're trying to show me better."

I tried reaching out and touching the things I was seeing, but every time I waved my hand my room would bur and ripple like I was waving water.

Overall, i've been very nervous about jumping into this and have been taking baby hits. This partial breakthrough was very nice in that I was able to dip my toes in without going in too quickly. Next weekend i'm going to do some big hits with some more green tea to attempt to break through fully. Will report back!
