Cigarettes were more of a problem for me, later on. That must be why I unconsciously took up the habit of not shaving myself for periods at a time, so I could look older and buy the damn ciggies.
Don't know where you're from, but here in Austria cigarettes and booze are legal, once you're 16. Nowadays that's also the voting age. But that's a rather new development.
I think I must explain something. I've been growing a beard ever since I started smoking, basically, and I could make myself look quite beyond my years with it, still can actually. I'm versatile in my looks like that, not sure if it's a very useful thing, me not being a Bosnian spy or anything but there you have it.
