So this is a blog about getting out my opinions and ideas, and part of that is sharing who I am. So I have been a smoker for many years now. I picked it up in high school, as a way to unwind from a lot of different things happening at that time in my life. I never really perceived it as a “disgusting” habit, my main attitude was “fuck you”, to anyone who thought it was, and still kind of is. Anyway once I got to college there was a serious smoking ban, and it became a lot harder to just enjoy a cigarette. So I gradually quit, and didn’t touch a cigarette for 4 years or so. However upon getting out of the college life scene and being more on my own I picked it back up again, but it just didn’t have the same sort of de-stressing factor it did in previous years. That’s when I realized that I didn’t need the cigarette to help me calm down anymore, I had grown up enough and figured out new ways to help myself in that area. However now it was my choice and decision to continue smoking. I knew that I needed something different, I didn’t like the smell, especially how lingering it was, and how I hated being outside to smoke. That is when I stumbled upon these things. I love the Blu cigarette. It’s vapor, so I can smoke it indoors, and there is virtually no smell. I’m a fan. Some people can choose to see my “habit” as gross or disgusting, but the way I see it, everything in moderation, and guess what, everyone has something people, so let me be, and let yourselves be.
