College Life
21

<p>Enjoy life?</p>

<p>Isn’t that like counter to everything the average CCer believes?</p>

22

<p>^ yeah, but some of us actaully enjoy work. although i doubt anyone can enjoy studying ALL their free time.</p>

23

<p>I enjoy working as much as the average overachiever, but sometimes you gotta just kick back and say, “eh, I’m not even 20 and I have high blood pressure.”</p>

24

<p>I enjoy work, but I’ve been staring at this paper all day because it just seems so crappy every time I read it. Oh well.</p>

<p>There is a great hookah forum with 575 members 2500 plus messages posted, and all this since it started 3 months ago on December 20, 2005. Many visitors who discuss the things about hookah.Most of the members are from the various local hookah lounges and hookah bars who signed up.People who have smoked for years and have lots of experience on where to buy, what not to buy, how to maintain the hookah, clean it, tips and infoo that makethe smoking of the “hubbly-bubbly” a lot more pleasant, and mainly done with a fantastic sense of humor (nah, just joking). Its an independent forum, since all but one other forum are tied to a particular hookah company which can censor things not to its liking. This is all out in the open.</p>

<pre><code> One thing though, no room for drugs here, that is bhongs or whatever. Grass -resins would clog things up. At this forum we are sharing the info, and your imput is greatly wanted.

<p>Its great for students to relax between studying and there are multiple hosed hookahs with 2,3,4 hoses so that you can buy them split four ways much cheaper, and smoke with people in the dorm.
See you there

<p>smoking anything is bound to bad for you. However, hookah is a more social thing so its unlikely you’ll have any major health problems. Do what you want to do.</p>

27

<p>Is it just me or do the majority of college kids smoke these hookah things?</p>

<p>I’ll never do it. I can’t even stand when someone smokes and I have to see or smell it…usually I’ll get out of the area pretty quickly.</p>

<p>Oh and by the way…drugs are bad for you.</p>

28

<p>… have you even smelled hookah? it’s nothing like cigarettes. They come in flavors such as strawberry and vanilla. I don’t smoke but i do hookah every once in a while.</p>

29

<p>i’ve heard hookah’s & bubblers were better for your lungs, but who knows for sure. do what makes you happy.</p>

<p>It’s not good for you…I mean, duh. Tobacco is tobacco. One wouldn’t have significantly less tar and nicotine than another…smoking ultra-lights is not very much safer than smoking full-flavored cigs. Any intake of carcinogenic substances is dangerous. Additionally, tobacco smoke may contain dioxins, depending on what kind of pesticides were used.</p>

<p>So, please understand that there are risks associated with any tobacco use. I’m not telling you not to smoke, I’m just saying that you should understand that what you’re doing isn’t harmless.</p>

31

<p>keep things in moderation and youll be fine</p>

32

<p>when i lived in egypt the regular “uncles” who smoked sheesha developed weird spots on their face, had a very raspy voice, developed a lot of mucus in their thorats, and were always coughing and spitting after they “drank” sheesha for a certain period of time.</p>

33

<p>Wear a condom if you get a hookah. That’s all I gotta say.</p>

34

<p>“Wear a condom if you get a hookah. That’s all I gotta say.”</p>

<p>■■■■■</p>

35

<p>Don’t use a hookah. I know people who do and it messed them up (socially, not mentally).</p>

36

<p>How so Slorg?</p>

37

<p>it turns you into a cat</p>

</p>

<p>While I enjoy life too, I tend to stay away from all forms of smoking… Seen to many people die young due to cancer and other tobacco diseases. I enjoy an occasional weekend drink, and enjoy to party… but no tobacco for me</p>

<p>Well duh a 45-min session is worse than a single cigarette. However, the average cigarette smoker does not smoke ONE cigarette every week. The average hookah smoker partakes about once a week at the most. I’m sure you’d be doing more bodily harm by taking a 45 min walk in heavily polluted area (Los Angeles, Detroit, etc) than smoking a single cigarette. </p>

<p>You wouldn’t stop drinking your favorite drink or coffee cause of reseach that shows caffiene raises blood pressure which leads to heart disease. You wouldn’t quit drinking water cause research shows it is one of the main components of cancerous tumors. </p>

<p>Be reasonable and weigh the goods and bads. </p>

<p>I personally do not smoke cigarettes or anything else. However, I hookah once a month. Matter of fact, I’m considering buying one.</p>

<p>What is the policy of having a hookah in your dorm room? And how did your friend have one in his hall anyway?</p>

<p>Well, coffee and alcohol doesn’t contain carbon monoxide, tar, heavy metals and 30+ carcinogens…</p>

<p>Hey, I’m not telling you not to smoke. Just remember the risks and don’t go about ****ing around and telling other kids on this forum that it isn’t harmful and crap…</p>

<p>No, this isn’t aimed at you but everyone that tries to marginalise the healthrisk… I drink alcohol but I don’t go about telling everyone its “needed” to enjoy and relax, etc… I’d expect that from smokers or other drug users too…</p>
