Hello my fellow vape-a-holics
First off, I've been sick for three days now. My lips are chapped and my nose is stuffy. This is seriously a vapers' worst nightmare. It's the head cold of the year and it has ruined my taste for vape completely! The fact my lips are normally dry from vaping means I can't even pick it up. As I'm typing this I'm struggling to even breathe. I hate getting sick. Maybe I should vape more orange juice! Haha! Oh...and even though I can't taste, the menthol flavors have cured my sore throat! Weird, but my boyfriend Caleb told me that they use menthol in cough drops? That's true...weird how that works out. So next time you're sick try a menthol flavor juice! 
On another note I won a contest in the PIF forum! It was the Independence Day contest. I won an ego-T kit! Which I planned to give away but now am debating on keeping it. I've been wanting an ego battery but maybe a pass thru battery...so I guess I'll see when ever I get it. I didn't really think I'd win...but I guess it was fate! It was an awesome prize and I'm just happy I won! Plus it's my birthday coming up...I might enjoy it as a birthday present to myself. Then again the whole ego-T system is rather confusing to me. I'm used to just filling up a tank and screwing it on; I haven't seen a lot of info about filling a ego tank yet. More research for me to do.
It's been a few days that I've been tossing this idea around in my head. I was sitting in the covered doorway in a hall waiting for my English class to open up from the pervious class session. Every Monday and Wednesday I sit there for an hour and stealth vape. My campus is "tobacco" free, and even though vaping isn't tobacco...I'd rather not have to explain that to one of my crazy southern classmates or overly judgmental teachers. So I sat there and was thinking how I stealth vape...I wondered if we'd ever go back to the days where you'd walk into a business office and you'd be flooded with smoke and every woman and man had something in their hands or mouths. Except now it would be a vape cloud and they'd all be holding huge mods or slick little customized e-cigs. I don't know if that's the best idea or the silliest. I would much rather have everyone understand it than everyone trying it and making it a "trend"...It especially irritates me when I go on Instagram and see #girlswhovape! I can't stand seeing these freaking Barbie doll-wannabes. Real women of the vape are ex-smokers...we do NOT look like a ....ing Barbie. Excuse my language. But once we start sexualizing vaping we become the tobacco business all over again. Do we want that? Where our models and spokes people are effing beautiful but the truth is we're not cool because we vape. WE VAPE BECAUSE WE'D LIKE TO LIVE LONGER!
Love longer > Look cool
I'd like to think its not just me...but vaping is a delicate task we shouldn't take lightly. We save ourselves and our friends around us. We are the pioneers of the future in this corner of the world...and if we don't make the best of this opportunity than we might as well be blowing smoke. I know I sound a little too invested in this silly argument but I don't want to see our kids looking down at us for making vaping into some sex symbol like they did with smoking. Once someone finds one fault about vaping they will run with it and we all will suffer for letting scene chicks and Barbie dolls run the show. Make a commercial about the benefits from a doctors point of view...make an Instagram about REAL PEOPLE who vape. Is that too much to ask for?
Most vapors are past smokers and lets be frank...not one looks like a ....ing plastic doll. Sorry to rant...but I'm really irritated that were looking like the tobacco companies.
So those were my rants for the day...besides that I've been thinking about vaping in public. Is it smart or is it just asking for trouble. I'd like to think its paving the way to a brighter tomorrow. But I suppose we will see.
