hehe i feel totally amazing i have just done my first evening at college and i love it this is something i would never have done a smoker as the thought of a 3 hour lesson was to daunting but now i am free the world is my oyster

and during the lesson one of the men students said is it ok if i get some fresh air i thought fresh air my a** you just cant make it through without a fag and sure enough he came back honking like a gone off ashtray i did feel sorry for him cause that would have been me a year and a half ago but at the same time i felt quite smug, a very mixed emotion that pity/smugness very confusing

but anyways i loved it best thing i have done for myself since quitting

absolutely true i would never have done this as a smoker no way so the freedom goes way beyond just not having to smoke every half hour/hour

Well done boo....you're an inspiration, my job isn't great. I sooooo want to try something new and hearing you're at college inspires me :)

oh lisa i recomend it to anyone the first week [last week] was proper scary i felt out of place as i havent studied since school and i sat there thinking what the hell am i doing sat here doing this i am a mummy and a shelf filler how can i possibly be sat here thinking i can do this, and all these people sat around me all fit in and can do this and i cant

yet this week omg it just clicked i really can do this i understood what we were doing with ease at one point i finished a task real quick and everyone else was still writing and i thought i had missed something or it was a trick question so i double checked still came up with the same answer so waited for them to finsih and low and behold i got the answer right and that was it there was no stopping me

do it lisa just think if you can quit smoking you can do anything
