It was sorta like a nightmare which, after waking up, one might recall as a positive experience. I was under the impression that the Earth had ended, and was absolutely certain that nothing would ever make sense again. There was some sort of alien entity rearranging an infinite number of universes and I was scared that my reality was lost forever in the shuffle. So yeah, definitely scared and intimidated during the trip, but afterwards I recall it as a good memory and an experience worth having. Smoke that shit up!

How I did it: My first festival was Download Festival '04, I went with some classmates who had organised it. I saved up for the ticket and bought it online, packed all my shit the night before and then got a lift to Donnington with my friends. It's a pretty easy thing to do. After that I started going to festivals in Europe which is slightly more difficult but if you've got experience spending a day just travelling then you've got all the experience yo… Read how I did it…

Yeah, so… I smoked and got high. It was the most amazing experience of my young life thus far.
So, for the record, I’d definitely change my vote to “worth it” if I could. It was radical.
Gonna start this goal again this week with some light exercise, building into a cycling routine. Ain’t gonna give up on this.
