I FORGOT TO POST THIS......doesnt that make sense for the holiday!
HOW April 20 IS SPENT ALLLLL OVER THE WORLD
April 20 ("4/20" in U.S. date notation) has evolved into a counterculture holiday, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis.[1] Some events may have a political nature to them, advocating for the decriminalization of non-medical cannabis in the United States.
American observance
University of Colorado, Boulder
2009's 420 celebration at University of Colorado.
A large celebration is held every year on the University of Colorado's Boulder campus, with attendance reaching more than 10,000 in 2008. It has been estimated that in 2009 the crowd surpassed the 10,000 attendee mark that was set in 2008. This would make CU Boulder's celebration of the hopeful legalization of marijuana one of the largest such celebrations in the United States.[3][6] University police have tried various methods to prevent the gathering, including photographing students participating in the event,[7] but the crowd has grown every year.[6] The university and police have taken a more hands-off approach since 2006, emphasizing event safety over possession citations. Recent growth of the medical marijuana industry in Colorado is expected to add momentum to future events.[8]
On April 15, 2009, the Office of the Chancellor sent an e-mail to all CU students regarding the 2009 celebration of 4/20 stating that the event would debase "the reputation of your university and degree." The CU student newspaper disagreed with the Chancellor's analysis.[9]
No possession tickets were issued at the 2009 event.[10]
Canadian observance
Ottawa, Ontario
Annually, on April 20th thousands of activists gather on Parliament Hill and Major's hill to look toward the peace tower as they join each other in smoking marijuana when the clock strikes 4:20. Police keep an eye on protesters to make sure the peace is kept. [11][12]
Vancouver, British Columbia
On April 20, 2009, an estimated nearly 10,000 people gathered around the Vancouver Art Gallery to celebrate "420". The police did not attempt to make arrests. This event has taken place in Vancouver annually for many years, and the police are generally tolerant of all marijuana use on April 20.[13]
New Zealand observance
Dunedin
In Dunedin, New Zealand, members of Otago NORML and some students at Otago University meet every Wednesday and Friday at 4:20 pm under a Walnut tree on the Otago University Union Lawn to smoke cannabis in defiance of New Zealand's cannabis laws. There was considerable media and police interest in the '420' group in 2008, resulting in the arrest of a student and the issuance of trespass notices to members of the public at one of the 4:20 pm meetings.[14][15][16][17][18][19] The group leader was arrested for cannabis possession at a university Market Day unrelated to the 4:20 meetings,[20] but was later discharged without conviction on all charges.[21] The group celebrated their 5th anniversary on September 11, 2009.[22]
Auckland
In Auckland, New Zealand a 420 group meets regularly at the Daktory.[23]

LETS SAVE EDUCATION in NEW JERZ..and everywhere we can impact
I recently received this from my good homie Diana(via facebook) and i felt this info needed 2 be shared. FUCK CHRISTIE?! OR FUCKZ WIT EM(krazy if u do)?
--------------------------
As many have heard, the new governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie has recently made mass cuts in state education. In fact, he has already cut 475 million dollars from the budget, and plans to cut more...the cuts will total just about 1 Billion dollars. Many After-school programs are going to cease to exist from now on. That means sports teams, clubs, arts and musics programs are going to no longer exist in NJ Schools.
In addition, he has gone on a firing rampage and is going to fire mass amounts of non-tenured teachers in the state. Further more, he plans on re-negotiating the contracts on teachers who are. That puts their health care, benefits, and pensions in serious danger. The state will soon have less teachers, and less money--to the point where some schools are saying they are going to need to have children share books.
Chris Christie also wants to completely eliminate the institution of pre-school in the state and have the entry level for children be kindergarten. This is going to complicate many parents lives and stifle and delay the development of many children.
The saddest part is that in only a few weeks a lot of these cuts have ALREADY gone into effect, and soon even more will go into place, and then even more by next school year.
This is one of the most serious things to ever happen in the state of New Jersey. At this point, the only potential for change lies in the students. The youth who will be effected by all these cuts need to rise up and do something. Therefore, I am suggesting that the students of New Jersey need to participate in a MASS STATE WIDE SCHOOL WALK OUT. On April 27th, I urge all of you to walk out, bring signs, and protest in front of your school, on the school track, ANYTHING. It is imperative to YOUR EDUCATION for something to be done. Something that will draw mass attention to this issue and get this sick man who some how got into office, to change something. I don't know what this man has against education, but i do know that the students who will be effected by this should not take it lying down. PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU KNOW. FORWARD IT TO EVERYONE! STEP UP WITHIN YOUR OWN SCHOOL AND HELP ORGANIZE THIS EVENT. Inform teachers, they will not argue it, because this is affecting them too. Most of your teachers, will actually not be returning next year because of all these cuts. So for their sake, and yours DO SOMETHING
