[QUOTE="Tony Montana, post: 278460, member: 10884"] Allrite I will Tell you , why ppl start smoking. Here you go , my story -- [B][U]PHASE - I : The BEGINING.[/U][/B] It started off as a show-off , It was my first day at college , I made a few friends and guess what they were smokers , we all went outside during the break and they all started fagging , now i was not a smoker and therefore standing next to them and no ciggi in my hand made me look like an idiot , atleast thats what i thought at that time , ofcourse they didn't force me but then my ego was to big to ignore it , I had to create an impression , I was No-lesser man so i requested my first Ciggi.

I laughed at them , asked them why the hell did they smoke , its not like we get a real high or something , they replied to me politely -- "you will learn". [B][U]PHASE - II : The SHOW-OFF[/U][/B] Allrite so smoking was a part of the schedule now , Daily during the lunch break we used to go outside , stand in style infront of the Girls Hostel and smoke.
