yeah i figured that much, apparently once you become a heavy cigarette smoker, you don't actually receive any sort of "high" like people experience in the beginning, the only high is just a lack of oxygen to the brain. i am only 18(been smoking since 14) and i live in paris right now (student) and everybody smokes all the time everywere, i have even seen kids as young as ten running around smoking cigarettes, its kinda disturbing. But yeah cigarettes are bad and i shouldn't smoke. i leave paris this weekend and when i get back to the states im quitting.
