2k3 maxima hesitating, check engine light, blue smoke... UUGGHHH!!!

okay so i just walked my do99 and went to therapy, no issues no problems, running smooth like always right, i get outta therapy and start driving 10 seconds later i feel some roughness... i figured it was the road i was on,, i stoped and i felt shaking, when i accelerate it hesitates and kicks out blue smoke. when i got home i turned it off, and looked around my engine bay, cleaned out the GAB a lil and started her back up... the first time i held the ignition for 4 to 5 seconds with no luck. the seconds time the same thing but the final second was the weakest start up i witnessed from my car...

i can post a video if it helps.... =(

There are a number of ways for oil to enter the combustion chamber, none of them good. Get some codes up here so we can investigate it .
