Smokers are selfish.

April 1st, 2010 by Meg

I hate it when people smoke. Especially when they try to defend their act by using the “it’s my body/health, so I can do what I want to it.” excuse- because while that’s true (however stupid it may be), it’s horribly selfish. ’cause just because you don’t give a crap about your own health, doesn’t mean that everyone around you, everyone that talks to you, everyone that uses the freaking public girls’ toilets at school, wants to kill their lungs and smell like shit the way you do.

It’s not your “right” to do what you want to yourself, if that something affects the right of everyone else to live they way they want; which may be to live healthily and without stress on their lungs. In fact, it’s almost the same as doing burnouts on the street, losing control & crashing your car into a bunch of pedestrians. They did nothing to deserve the pain (or even death), and they probably didn’t want to die or become injured. But, y’know, burnouts are “fun”, so why not risk a few lives for a good time?

A little debate on facebook brought this up, and I guess it’s pretty obvious where I stand- stupidity/selfishness never looked “cool” to me; life is sacred. I mean, I get that it’s hard to quit for some people, especially older people that didn’t know of the risks back in the day; and as long as these people are, at the very least, trying to quit, I guess they’re not as bad. But this rant is more aimed at people that are still defending their habit with rubbish excuses; the people that know it’s bad but don’t try to care. Those teenagers that get that adreneline rush because they’re breaking the rules. The ones that just think it looks cool. You’re just another follower.


I heart Italian Food

April 1st, 2010 by Meg

You know what’s delicious? Italian food. I just went out to a really nice restaurant on recommendation of the “Good Food Guide” and it was definately, well, gooood to put it lightly. I’ve been so lucky to be able to go to these awesome, diverse restaurants with my foodie Uncle and Aunty; I mean, recently (last yearish) I’ve been through some tough times with my dad’s health, so it’s nice to feel a little lucky sometimes. Aha, I only with I could say the same for my position on the monopoly game a little earlier today…

Tomorrow I have a birthday/easter party-get-together thing on with the rels, yay. I loveee chocolate. Like, even the gross cheap chocolate I can use to melt down and make a chocolate pudding. Lately I’ve been sort of into cooking; apparently the top 3 things I can cook are Quesdillas, Crepes and Chocolate Pudding. Not exactly the most difficult dishes buut still good.

Anyway, a few days ago I wrote up this whole rant about smoking. To put it up or no? Meh. Someone let me know.

Happy Easter anddd have a fun April fools ;)
