What is the stupidest thing you've done? /my introduction :)

Hey! So I'm completely new to vaping. In my college years I used to smoke Camel Crushes (regular) because I loved that little bit of menthol that wasn't too overpowering like a real menthol flavored cigarette.

Whenever I would smoke, I hated smelling like it. I would keep my clothes separate and wash them separately and take a shower right after. I was insane but I needed my fix when I was hella stressed in order to keep my sanity. I also hid my habit from my parents, and I was pretty good- I'd go through a pack a month. I also tried not to smoke as much, because I hated killing off my taste buds. :/

I had to force myself off when I moved back in with my parents after graduation. Ugh. Working at Starbucks just made me crave. It's terrible. I just moved into a new house, and still see my parents every other day, so my beloved camel crushes are still out of the picture. Not to mention, they still don't know! They would flip their ......

I thought of trying ecigs, and bought my first ones today! It is an eGo starter pack for roughly $40 that came in a purple case with two batteries, a charger (USB and wall) and 2 clearomizers. Not sure exactly what model, but it was made by Oasis Vape. Loving it! Tried a Strawberries and Cream and a Lychee juice, but the lychee one tastes weird lol. The strawberry is awesome though, because it reminded me of the strawberry prime times I used to smoke in high school without the yucky cigar-ish flavor.

Im a a total idiot though XD my set didn't come with instructions and I couldn't find much online so I burnt out both coils. No matter though, bought a couple more on a return trip to my oasis smoke shop and asked how to not repeat my mistake and all is well who else has done this? What are your stories?

I would have to say the stupidest thing I did in the beginning was spending $90 on a Blu starter kit. 1 week in and it went in the garbage. It didn't even come close to meeting my needs. Started smoking again until I saw a commercial on TV for a local vape shop in my area. Picked up vaping again and haven't looked back! Also, welcome!

My first mistake was buying from the first place I visited. For what I paid $100 dollars I could have spent $50 down the street. But it works... for now. I usually do some homework before I dive into something, and for some reason here I didn't, so I got bit. But it's a good bite, 5 weeks later my initial investment has paid for itself, although I see an upgrade in the near future.

Yuck! I was thinking of looking for the blu but glad I didn't lol. I was never a heavy smoker, but I smoked enough, lol. On particularly bad days I'd go through about 4 cigarettes which was a lot for me! I saw the commercial of that chick in the bar and it sounded quite convincing. The shop I went to mixes their own juice, and has so many more flavors! Plus I get to watch! Lol

I don't ever think I'm going back to real cigarettes. Vaping reminds me of the one time I tried hookah with some friends and I enjoyed it way too much lol
