Smoking

Just Nasty

By Stacey Johnson

You’re at a big school party. All the cool people are there. You are SO Jazzed. But at the same time you are SO nervous. Why? Everyone is smoking, you know someone who died of lung cancer and it makes you sick to your stomach to smell smoke.

Smoking, straight up is just nasty, and for your health, it does NO wonders. When cigarettes first started to become cool the health hazards were not known. Later on, doctors did tests, studies, and experiments to prove that smoking is bad for your health.

Personally, my mom smoked when I was younger and I remember hating it. I find smoking gross. When I smell someone’s clothes with the smoker’s smell, I can’t stand it.

It has been proven that smoking is not only bad for the smoker’s health, but for others’ too. Second hand smoke does kill. Smoking gives people lung cancer, mouth cancer, emphysema and other problems.

I will never become addicted to cigarettes. I challenge you to the same. There really is no point to start if you’re doing it to be cool- really, it isn’t.
