Lucid Nightmares

I know I should not have tried it…but I’m a stubborn little brat who always wants to get in trouble.

*cough cough*

My excuse: I need it for my story.

You see I’ve been working on a short story about smoking and after weeks of imagining how a person smokes and asking my friend how it goes, I finally decided that I should experience it for myself.

Discreetly, I bought two sticks of marlboro lights…I wanted hope but they didn’t have them. So as my roommates were out, getting drunk somewhere (sorry guys :). Of course they don’t do this as often as you think, it’s just that someone was celebrating his bday.

Anyway, back to MY story. I locked myself in our room and lit a stick. I tried to do it as my friend explained it…at first I just let the smoke reach my mouth then I tried the real thing, dragging it inside of my system. The first time, I swallowed the smoke and I think my throat was blistered…God it hurt. And it still does *cough*. Been sucking on strepsils for the couple of hours… I can’t even tell my parents why I suddenly had coughs. My Dad, who was a nurse said that it’s just irritation. I can’t look at him in the eye! Oh yeah Dad, my throat got irritated because I did what you told me not to do.

But hey, he haven’t stopped smoking anyway. And I learned my lesson. I hate smoking. I hate it’s smell and I hate it’s taste. there’s just something with the visuals thing that I’m obsessed with.

In the end though, I got a decent drag and exhale. Mission complete. But I don’t think I’ll be trying it out again soon.

*cough cough*
