On my first & only trip back to #Vietnam with my parents, I smuggled in an ounce of pot in my coochie because I had zero contacts for good pot in Vietnam.

How I did it, as a teen with zero overseas #marijuana smuggling experience.

Saran wrap was my friend.

I first squished the ounce & then put it into those vacuum sealer things to compact it even more. It was a very small pack by time I was done & I had shaped it like a dildo so it would fit me better. I wrapped it in 2 layers of saran wrap. Then, because my teen brain was thinking - What about the strong smell?! - wrapped unused scented Bounce dryer sheet around package. Then double wrapped in more saran wrap. Tested it out for 12 hrs - to see if I could actually move around with it & not look too uncomfortable.
I actually thought I'd get busted at border checks but was waved through.

The first night back in Saigon, since our family fled from destabilization of US invasion on Vietnam, I was able to remove my smuggled pot from my coochie. I rolled/smoked a joint on deck of relative's home midnight & giggled to myself that I'm smoking a smuggled coochie joint.

Caveat: I am not a regular drug smuggler.

That time I was a very bad daughter, in 1991.

My parents bought our family home in early 1991. At that time, they both worked 2 jobs, including a nighttime janitorial couples job at local government offices. I was in my early troublesome teen era. I threw a party at our home & invited only my friends from 3 different high schools. The word got out & every single high school crowd had found out about it. Our street had hundreds of teens arriving, almost all at once. I was flabbergasted & didn't know what to do because people wouldn't leave. Several had invaded my bedroom & messing my stuff up. parents came home. They were freaking out. My Mom picked up her broom & started yelling & literally sweeping people out with broom. 6 cop cars arrived because neighbours called. Everyone scattered. I jumped in a car with 3 friends & met up with others at Layritz Park. Where we then set up a random obstacle course & did races at it for 2 hours before cops came to chase us off. We ended up at Durrance Lake & skinnydipped by moonlight.

I was grounded for 2 weeks & had my driving privileges revoked for a month. I deserved it for being an irresponsible little shit.

A short fiction piece, from a voice not usually heard much. I hope you will be entertained. I'm writing a follow up from the daughter's pov and all comments are very welcome. About a 15min read.

This gentleman here is watching a game of Kok-Boruu ("horseback polo with a goat").

He's in Kyrgyzstan, and his village got electricity last year only.
