What do I need?
First, let me emphasize there are many ways of smoking or eating hashish or marihuana. This is just one. There are even many different ways of rolling a joint. This is just one I like.
Gather the following items:
a quantity of the semi-legal or illegal substance,
Hash: resin from the hemp-plant ("cannabis sativa") pressed together in little cubes or slices, colour ranges from light brown to black.
Or Weed (marihuana): dried flowering tops of the female hemp-plant, looks like dried flower-tops or (when cut:) tea-like, colour ranges from grey-green to brown-green.
a pair of scissors, to cut the weed
only if it needs cutting, of course
tobacco,
either rip open a cigarette for this (but it's tobacco will be difficult to work with) or buy hand-rolling tobacco.
cigarette paper
Large ones, preferably. Little papers can be "glued" together to become large ones
A piece of thick paper
Width about 1.5, length about 6 centimeters. This paper will be rolled into a little shaft/tube to form the mouthpiece of the joint.
Matches or a lighter.
A comfortable working-space.

How much?
This really is difficult. It depends on the strength of the material, the high you want to get and the number of people involved. If it's your first time, it's best to smoke with someone who has some experience. He or she could comfort you during your first trip as well. If you haven't got a clue of the dosage; smoke slowly, in a comfortable place with nice people, and stop when you feel you've had enough.

Rolling the joint
If you've never done this before, practice first.
First roll the piece of thick paper (about 1,5x6cm) into a tight mouth-piece. Using this mouth-piece has a few advantages: The joint can be smoked completely, up to the paper and it will be easier to construct.
Then, lay out the cigarette-paper, flat, glue-side up and away from you.
Lay the mouth-piece on one side and spread the tobacco evenly onto the paper
Now take your crumbled hash or cut marihuana and distribute it evenly on top of the tobacco
Pick up the paper gently with both hands and start shaping the content (tobacco and weed) into a cigarette-shape. For this, you make a rolling motion with the joint-to-be between both your thumbs and forefingers. (easier done than said) At this point stuff may fall out, but that doesn't matter. You can put it back later.
Now it's time for the tricky part: to get the paper neatly around the content. Use the mouth-piece to "get a grip" (roll the paper into itself, around the mouthpiece, as shown in the picture). All the time keeping the paper rigid with both hands. Lick the paper and "glue" it together, starting with the mouth-piece and working your way towards the end. The wetter the better.
Let the joint dry for a while, then put the stuff that's fallen out into the top.

Basic shapes
1 The end "rolled shut". This makes the joint very portable, it prevents anything from falling out.
2 The end "open". Comfortable
3 Shaped like a cigarette. When you haven't got, or don't want to use much (or any) tobacco.

ENJOY! But remember kids,don't inhale.
