I smoke more but its hard to distinguish whether its because cigarettes are just cheaper than in the states or the fact that ARE NO FULL FLAVORED CIGARETTES!!! What in the Sam Hill is that BS? I hate Marlboros but hell even the reds are a "light" version. I feel like God is punishing me for some reason.

Smoking is disgusting, not to mention its pre-mature aging effects. I know a Korean girl who aged so much since 2004, and she eats cigarettes. We are all going to be old and ugly one day anyways without adding to your future ugliness. Plus, she loves the alcoholic sauce.

hehehe..Actually she is my friend and she is a bartender. Her parents prefer for her to marry a whitey, but she prefers Korean guys. Go figure. If they told her to find a Korean guy, she'd want a whitey, I am sure.

why is it everytime smokers ask a question directed at other smokers, nonsmokers somehow feel they have responsibilty to remind everyone how disasteful they find our form of suicide. trust me, I think everyone knows cigarettes are coffin nails, but cant we just suck at the sweet nectarous teet of tobacco whithout having someone remind us every five minutes that they dont want to join us? I dont smoke around nonsmokers I know (and usually they dont even care if I do) but the way nonsmokers voice their displeasure is often done in a manner that is as obnoxious as a smoker lighting up in front of a group of lung cancer patients hooked up to Oxygen tanks. we get it, you dont like it, just let us have a conversation about smoking in peace.

i did the same thing
felt really good and i felt good about myself for the first month or so but now i dont feel any different than before when i was still smoking

i guess the effect wore off or maybe its because i smoked lights

some people say that food tastes better when you stop smoking and so on but i cant say that i experience that

oh well

I quit cold turkey in March 2006 which will be 1 year ago soon.
I smoked This Plus, Time Light and then One. Each time to a weaker one, after I was sick a LOT with a flu. 2 packs a day.

What I noticed though is that going to lighter ones does not increase my smoking, since I was smoking to kill time (5-7 minutes a pop). Also you get used to the lighter ones like One....but it takes a 3-4 days or getting sick and not smoking for a week.

Ah, I guess she didn't go to the university and stuff. But she is a bartender - of course she likes smokes & C2H5OH. But what does "she is my friend and she is a bartender" has to do with her phone number? Take her photo and post here.

I was a party smoker before arriving last week, but now I find myself having a few whenever I'm walking any distance. I also smoke in bars. I only smoke blacks, so at least they smell sweet.
