It all started in Ramadan, where shisha shops during that month make more money than what they do for the rest 11 months. I was out with my school friends, guys and girls, and some of our foreign teachers. We took them to Al Hussein, where it is usually occupied with foreigners as it is a cultural center with plenty of sightseeing to do and variety of places to sit and enjoy yourself in.
When we sat down, one of the guys, who was known for being the most expert shisha smoker, ordered a shisha and ordered for the foreign teachers too telling them to try it. Myself and the other kids who never tried smoking were kind of afraid to try it, but we all decided to give it a shot. We were a group of 10 for example, and you would see each 2 or 3 sharing one shisha, but I, known for my coolness, had a whole water pipe all for myself.
It really felt very good. It was an amazing experience. I kept smoking for hours, changing bowl after bowl. That night was not just an exceptional night, it was the stepping stone or the night whereas I left my childhood back home and jumped into the sea of adulthood.

Background.
For the record; I have been a regular smoke for about 14 years. I started when I was 13 and it seemed fantastic and cool to smoke back then, but now that I am almost 27 the sensation and uniqueness have both worn off.
I am tried of the addiction.
I am tried of the addiction.
A New Beginning.
All my life I wanted to quit smoking, but the thought usually was being smoked away. I tried to quit before, and actually did so at one point in life, which of course I am going to share with you later. I hate the fact that I am a slave despite me ruling the thought out. I hate many things about it, and my poor little mind always labeled smoking with big red hearts and butterflies.
I am going to tackle all my smoking life and share everything on my mind related to it in here. This is going to be a diary on my battle to a healthier life.
Will I succeed?
