Hey everyone!
So I know it's been a long time, but I have a few perfecctly valid reasons why I haven't been posting anything. I had a bunch of tests and essays due in all my classes, my boyfriend lost his grandmother whom he was living with and now he might be kicked out by his grandfather, my friends have been dragging me around trying to get me to do things with them and I just haven't had the time or the will to sit down and post something for your entertainment. Sorry. :/
Now then, let's talk about what is really on my mind right now. Cigarettes. Okay I know what you are thinking, "Riku, you smoke? Why? It's so bad for you!" Yeah I know, I've heard this all before. Trust me, my mother works for the county health department, she won't stop telling me these things. It's just that I am a social smoker, which means that if I am with a group of people and one of them lights up, I feel like I should light up as well. The weird thing is, I could go a long time without smoking, but since it is a great stress relief and adds another social aspect to my life, I'd really rather not quit. Besides that, there are two cigarettes that I look forward to every week and it just so happens that those are the two cigarettes that I smoke by myself.
The first is the one that I smoke every Wednesday night on my way back to the house after AWANA get's out. I help out with the K-2nd graders and i love them, they are a great little group of kids. When I get to the church, I meet up with my friend, we each buy one slice of cheese pizza and one soda, then we sit in my truck until AWANA starts. Afterwards we come back to the truck and wait for her brother to come ad pick her up. The whole thing is really relaxing and after she leaves and I am driving, I light up a cigarette. That is generally the best cigarette of the week because almost all of the conditions are right. I'm not super stressed, I've had recent human interaction which was worth while and I don't have to worry about the next day. Plus, I have half a soda to go with my cigarette which is really just icing on the cake.
The second smoke I look forward to is the one of Friday night. Can I just start this off to say that for some odd reason, smoking on Friday is generally just amazing? Great, thanks haha moving on. So I take my little brother to a Magic shop here in town where he plays in tournaments for hours every Friday night. I used to play too, but then shit happened and now I just hang out for a while, catch up with the guys there and then take off. Well after I take off, I light up a cigarette while I'm driving and that is also generally a really great cigarette.
Other than those two, I never really smoke while I drive. I don't care for the smell it will leave on the seats or the hassle of flicking the ash, turning, ignoring dirty looks and other such things. I don't know why, but those two instances I just told you guys about, those really are the best cigs I could ever smoke alone. I mean, I smoke all the time with my boyfriend in his car (that'll be a later post. You'll need to see pictures to believe it haha) but I generally don't care for people smoking in my truck. I smoke at school surrounded by all of my friends, but that is social smoking, not so much for the cigarette but for the enjoyment of other peoples company and there is something about sharing a cigarette with someone that really makes me feel like I'm that much closer to that person.
Anyway....XD I have a whole day to get through so I'm taking off.
Goodbye everyone
Stay Beautiful
