Life without Mr. Dunhill
When you sit in the office in the afternoon… after lunch… before tea break… and feeling sleepy. Who do you think of? Dunhill. Who? Marlboro. What? Salem. Anyone else? Sampoerna.
Well, I kinda miss them and at time I really thought of meeting them at the staircase but I’m fighting. Tak nak. Satan and Angel are standing next to me.
Satan: endroo, go now.. go meet your old friend Mr Dunhill at the staircase. You’re sleepy, go take a break.
Angel: No endroo…. you’ve come so far for not smoking… its for your own good. Look at you now, you’re getting healthier… a little bit of withdrawal symptom is normal and must be overcome.
Satan: But do you still remember the time when you’re tired, stressed out… and the first puff got you so energised.. How good that was..
Angel: No…. go drink coffee, eat some sweets.. black Hacks.
endroo: Arrgh!! If my late grandad did it with black Hacks, I will too !!
Join me in quitting smoking for a better health. Seriously, I feel better without smokes. Skin is better, no bad breath, not so smelly and I save some money.. I can get a casing for my ipod. Oh yeah, Ng, I’ve stopped contributing to your fat annual bonus by stop smoking. As if you gave me some of your bonus.
RM 8.20 x 7 = RM 57.40
RM 8.20 x 30 = RM 246.00
RM 8.20 x 365 = RM 2993.00
RM 246.00 x 12 = RM 2952.00
I’m taking my granny’s advice. It’s all up to yourself. If you have the will, everything also can quit. But I’m not gonna quit drinking. Occasionally, I need some beer and G stout. I’m afraid something will happen to my already displaced set of teeth. Smoking might cause inflammation to my gum or my teeth. I’m scared like shit. I don’t want my teeth to be like her’s.
Those of you who had oral surgery… tooth extraction, jaw reconstruction etc… don’t smoke !!
By not smoking, I have more appetite to eat and I hope I can gain some weight. Its weird. Someone who use to be very thin will wanna be fatter and vice versa. Someone who was fat will wanna be thinner.
Here’s the article in Reader’s Digest that made me wanna quit smoking… and then the accident happened. Avoided the earthquake in East Java (was scheduled to go to Solo, Jogjakarta, Borobudur). A blessing in disguise as my dad said. Life had never been better.
