My sister and I must have expressed some sort of intrigue around the little cancer sticks, since both our parents were smokers. Then I didn’t see her for a week, and when I asked her friend what happened, she said, “Oh yeah, she’s gay now.” I quit smoking after that.
During that time, the girl and I finally had a moment and we passionately kissed. I became a cigarette mule for the “cool guys” who knew I always had cigarettes, since I didn’t really try to smoke unless I was around the girl. I decided to keep doing it as a habit, in hopes of remaining cool, but never got the hang of it. I did that thing where you take it into your mouth, hold it for a few seconds, and blow it back out.
#MARLBORO GIRL HOW TO#
I didn’t - and still don’t - really know how to inhale. One night, this girl breaks open a pack of cigarettes and I asked if I could have one. As she started taking a liking to me, I felt my anti-smoking grip ease. She was beautiful, and hip, and smoked, at least when she partied. There was a certain group who had ultra-hip parties in Los Feliz, and over time, I became smitten with a girl there. So, I started meeting a bunch of “cool” young professionals. At this time, I was two years into living in Los Angeles, and my best friend was a recruiter for an MTV reality show. I was “straight edge” until I was over 21, but hadn’t dabbled in smoking, mainly because I was a former college runner and smoking was such a big no-no for that. How old were you? Why did you do it?
