No one in my family smokes, which is a good thing I guess. My mother constantly asks if I get offered a smoke, so it's pretty evident they're against it.
My mom did the same thing when I started smoking cause she was all suspicious and all that. I kept lying until I turned 18 :/
Now she knows. She doesn't like it, but she knows xD

My mom smokes. She says she will try to quit but it never looks like she's actually trying because a day later she tells me to go out and get her some. I've done it so often that almost (if not) everyone at the gas station know who I am and never asks for my ID anymore. Sigh.

It's true! I find smoking just.. one grand waste of money. I see no benefits, and you can put that money towards spa days or the gym to de-stress and it's much healthier for you to do it that way.
Luckily, my College has a free gym for students. It's actually an entire fitness center, with Tennis courts, Basketball courts, Baseball fields, swimming pools, a gym... etc.

I think smoking is just a waste of money and Im not a fan of the concept of putting tar and chemicals from the cigarettes into my body.

Wow! That's pretty impressive actually! You should totally take advantage of that too! o_o Especially the fact that they have a pool- swimming is the best because it's gentle on the joints, and works muscle and flexibility as well as giving you cardio <3

Your advice isn't really going to be helpful here. She has her own food issues that she needs to work out; it's not a matter of "find a different hobby!"
Not to mention Lead, which is terrible on the long run.
Hell I'm there all the time xD

I wouldn't get my hopes up, my college only has that stuff because it's the second top college in Texas and the 17th in America or something around there xD

Ah fair enough, and yeah you're right- for some people, battling with food is really difficult too ;o; I hope she finds her own way to work through it though <3
Pedro: that's great! I wish I took advantage of my school gym back at college, but oh well! Too late now haha!

The college I went to (which is somewhere on the lower end of the top 100) had several fields and gyms, a track, a dance studio, basketball and tennis courts. All free for students to use. But it was also build on hills so just walking to class was a workout. I was never in better shape than when I was there.

Oh my, I woke up with a knife in my back (Pokecommunity Assassin)
anyways, I smoke, but I've cut down quite alot this year, (I only have about 1 every couple of days). Unless I'm drinking of course, then I digivolve into a chain smoker. Drinking is fairly overrated. It's kinda a cuture thing where I come from though. So having a few beers every once in a while is just kinda a thing that's done around here ^_^ (we have more then enough of it, that's for sure)
The college I went to (breifly) had a fitness center, Swimming Pool, and Tennis Court. To be fair, there could of been more, but I never really explored Campus to much.

Wow. Dipu, I stand corrected. You can get your hopes up! o_o
