then it would cost you about $1,500/year. Think of how many CDs,
clothes, movie tickets you could buy with that money.

Im young. This stuff wont happen to me for a long time. You may
think that you are young and these problems only occur when you get
old,but it all starts when you start smoking. You are probably
already feeling theeffects. Teen smokers have a harder time
competing in sports because of shortness of breath, decreased
circulation, and rapid heart rate. Smokers are more likely to miss
a big game because they get sick more often with colds, flu,
bronchitis,and pneumonia.

cigarettes and chew- ALL of it. Get rid of the ashtrays and
lighters too. Wash all your clothes. Get rid of the cigarette
