Ten Things I Loved About Smoking Cigarettes

To give you some insight on why I would like to share my love of cigarette smoking with the world, I would first like to tell you how I met my former best friend (That’s right, FORMER). I met my former best friend nicotine at the age of sixteen, earlier than I should have, and smoked on and off until about the age of twenty. Through those four years, I learned ten important facts that I’d like to share with everyone about why smoking is awesome and cool!

1. MONEY

To start, almost everyone alive knows smoking kills your body, but it also kills your wallet. If you’re thinking about smoking and you have a job, you better budget $25 to $30 dollars a week out of your paycheck to smoking. Who needs money anyway? You worked hard for that money and if you want to waste it on cigarettes go for it. After all, cigarettes are more important than food, shelter, and health.

2. ADDICTION

Have you ever been addicted to something? Now I’m not talking about “OMG I need my Starbucks”. I’m talking about real addiction. Having to have a substance control your body and mind is cool because who needs will power?

3. HEALTH

Shortness of breath? Coughing? Emphysema and cancer!!!!! If any of those sound appealing to you, go buy a pack of cigarettes immediately and get to smoking!

4. SMELL

No one loves the smell of cigarette smoke than non-smokers. If you like smelling like a burnt campfire in public, why haven’t you smoked yet? Go nail an interview or first date smelling like straight cigarettes!

5. SOCIETY

It is common sense that smoking is bad for you, but who cares, you’re a rebel. Society can’t hold you back, go smoke, and show the man! Impress the cool kids at school with your smoking, they’ll remember you the rest of their lives, I promise.

6. FAMILY

Every mother and father wishes their children were smokers, proven fact. It shows that they raised them to have absolutely zero common sense, and every parent wants their child to have a greater chance to die before them.

7. BREATH

Smoke a cigarette and go up and talk to someone face to face. They will remember you as having the best breath they have ever smelled. Nothing says I want to talk to you again like smokers breath!

8. CLOTHES

If you smoke, guess what, you’ll never have to buy perfume again. You have tons of options, Camel Lights, L&M Reds, among many other beautiful smelling scents that will stick to you were ever you go!

9. SEX

If you have ever been hit on by a smoker, than you already know that it is one of the most attractive aspects a person can have. They have bad breath, smell terrible, and have proven that they will be around just as long as you have!

10. IMMATURITY

Nothing says you’re a grown adult than an out dated habit that has been proven to kill you. If you need evidence of this, then you did not read one through nine.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
