Those Days Will Soon Be Over

i always told myself it wouldn't last forever. i never expected it to end so soon, but starting on friday i am quitting smoking cigarettes.
i do love 'em to death, and to be totally clear my quitting has nothing to do with my health (that's been very low on my list of concerns for a long time... starting with my diet). as some of you may know, i'm working on getting my license. well, we decided that wasn't going fast enough so now i'm sitting in a class for it that'll be running for the next few weeks. i'll be sitting with all of the 16 year olds who are hoping to drive as early as possible... which is INCREDIBLY awkward.

i may seem like i'm going off topic but bear with me

when that's over with, granted if i pass my test, i will be handed a brand spanking new drivers license. but what's a drivers license with no car? well, here's where smoking fits in. my mom has been against my smoking since i started 3 years ago, and guess what? she finally devised a plan to make me quit for good. that's right,

I'MA BE GETTIN' A CAR!!!!!


:w00t:


so, starting on friday (end of the first week of school) i'm going to be mailing every tobacco product i own to a friend of mine who never got a birthday present from me. i'm hoping i'll be over the worst of it on monday, cause if quitting means getting a vehicle that'll most likely last me for the next decade, that's a price i'm willing to pay.

wish me luck, friends! no doubt i'll be dumping all of my problems with the withdrawal process here to vent my frustrati... I MEAN for your amusement.

don't feel like you have to give me advice, though the thought is appreciated i may end up reacting to such a thing in an explosive manner. if anything, just post pictures of cars when i start venting.

cheers

WISH ME LUCK!

YAY CHAEZ. YOU CAN COME PICK ME UP AND WE'LL GO FOR A SPIN<3 John must come too. ;___;
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

NOICE! I wish my parents were affluent enough to be able to buy me a car, strings attatched or not. Or at least pay for the repair of the car I've got now.

Do you know what kind of car? Is it gonna be be a new car or a used one? I WANT MOAR DETAILS.
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

This is a lesson to us all - take up smoking so that our parent will buy us cars.
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

Is it going to be a car made out of cigarettes?
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

Is it going to run on all the tar you wont be breathing in anymore?

granted it's not a brand new car, it's a 10 year old subaru outback, but it's probably one of the most reliable cars i've ever seen. my moms had it for 10 years and while it had some problems recently, about 5 grand was put into getting it back into good shape. with any luck it'll last 10 more. ^_^

no the car isn't made out of cigarettes - though that would be pretty ****ing cool :lol:

and i've been saving all my tar in a jar since i started so i have enough fuel for a trip to the moon and back.
...that's pretty fun to say. tar in a jar, tar in a jar, my new cars gonna run on tar in a jar.

@Oakvale ooookaaayyyy.... i guess it's better than john trying to pick me up in a car.

@Wings how long were you smoking for? any withdrawal tips? because my plan so far is to spend a weekend raging in this thread and venting stress by shutting myself in my room and playing halo nonstop.

@Tyrant that isEXACTLY what my mom had in mind. how did you know? oh well, now all i have to do is quit smoking crack and the baby should be risk free. :D

@Droded i'm surprised you hadn't come up with the idea already, big D. i mean so far it's got a 100% success rate! it was probably your idea in some obscure unforseeable way. :lol:
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

Still... a smoke every now and then is good, cowboy smoke ^_^
it's so relaxing - especially when you haven't smoked for a while, you can get kinda high.

I'd promis stop too if I got a car for it :D
And I'd really stop if someone was paying for the gas!
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

I wish you luck, my good man. I haven't started smoking for that exact reason, and all I can do is condone you that quitting is the best option.
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

Lots of sex and cupcakes!! That's the method my boyfriend used when he quit and it seemed to make things bearable at least -- and I got some extra goodies too!! ... Oh, and i guess the extra sex was a nice perk as well... :P

Good luck!! :D
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

That's good to hear. I've never been a fan of cigarettes. I've never understood the point. Weed and alcohol is a different story though. :lol:

I really need a car though. The Necro is envious. I've had my license since April and I still have to drive around in my mom's minivan. It can be somewhat humiliating. :lol:

Wait till you get married, have kids and start to actually see all of the advantages the mini van provides so you end up buying one - THEN! you will feel humiliated! :P
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

I'm sorry to say that the Suburu Outback is called the Dike Car around these parts (New England)...kind of like Berkinstocks (they're "Dike Shoes")...and people at my work think my Manager is Gay (He's a man) because he drives one >.<. I personally don't believe it but I just think it's kind of funny and that thought was brought to mind.

Anyway... >( lucky *continues to pout like a 5 year old*
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

Whaaaaaaaaaaa-

I was gonna buy some B&H for you on the weekend, but srsly man, tha's fine. THAT IS FINE.

When you cave and start smoking again, I'm sending you that ****.

Dear God.

Do I look 18?

And good luck, Cheez! :D

Looking at the UK... Since when was age a factor in smoking? I know an 11 year old who smokes.

Good luck Cheez. Smoking's for douchefags. *Cough*Purple*cough*.
 
Re: Those Days Will Soon Be Over

Good luck! Seriously, most of my friends who "quit" smoking ended up caving in at the last minute and getting re-hooked on them. You should drop smoking and develop a new habit. Like hitting the squirrels that run into the road, or the joggers...yea, joggers are 10 points, dontchaknow?

I've got a mate who "quit" smoking about 6 times... And he wonders why I don't take him seriously when he tells me he's going to quit.
