So lately I'm thinking a lot about smoking. Not the health issue or anything. Just smoking in general. Those of you who know me longer probably know as well that I used to smoke. I started pretty young - when I was still in high school. Why I started.. Don't know exactly. It was not because of peer pressure that's for sure. In my company of peers back then smoking was.. frowned upon. I liked it I guess. Either way it went on for a while. I had some periods of non smoking, but they were just periods. I fully stopped when I started dating my (now ex) bf (the one I got all those awesome gifts for). But since he's my ex and I had nobody to complain about it for some months now I started again. Just a bit. Right now I'm that social poser who smokes only on parties or some events or something like that.
The thing that really got me thinking is.. Is smoking really that bad? Of course I know all health hazards, not only is my sister a doctor, I used to be a hostess for electronic cigarettes (you have to know your shit if you're trying to sell something), but we also live in an age of information. But the whole thing of 'needing' something. Doesn't it suck? That you don't feel right if you don't get it? Maybe that's the reason I don't drink coffee either.
So to feel better about my unhealthy habit I gathered some pics that glorify smoking. Hell yeah. :)
