Smoking is a habit that is hard to quit. My cousin has been smoking for quite a while now and he told me never start smoking cause it's hard to quit when you start. In any case it's a death stick. I don't see why some people find it cool to start using something that they know, and it has been proven, will kill them in time. My advice to you all is to try and stop smoking if you've started and seek help and if you plan on starting or want to try smoking DON'T.
I found some very good facts to discourage smoking.
