I'm smoking (...again)

A came back from his 2 week long Australia break yesterday. Besides giving me a cute little Kuala (pics to come soon), he also gave me this (points below)
Ciggies!!

Cool packaging huh?

AL - his initials 

Yup. They are real cigarettes from Marlboro.

But, this is not from Australia. He got them at a club (can't really remember but if I'm not mistaken I think it's Maison). Quite creative and innovative this Marlboro people. They actually set up a booth and give this free "design and personalize your own cigarette box" service, with no extra cost! Still RM9 for a box of 20's.

Anyhow, why does my title written "I'm smoking (...again)"? It's because I am......ops! Wait....let me explain... I'm a casual smoker. I 'learned' how to smoke exactly a month back after the Debit Card launch (long story.... but in a nut shell, I was super stressed out, and yes, I know that is not an excuse either) and stopped there. I hatted it. Till today, I still don't get smoking. What's the fun in it? 

Then you ask why am I doing it again? That A lor......if he had just given me an empty box or if the box was not opened, then I would not had started. But, but, but.... I'm not really smoking. I'm just puffing smoke. No inhaling required. Besides the point, I just needed an excuse to not be in the office. Standing outside on the balcony alone doing nothing is starting to feel weird. So smoking is the best disguise. ^_^
