I messed up my quiz, but still, here I am, somehow happy and cheerful. :P

I sulked over it until I got the results. I guess it's because I know that there are other components I can do well in.
EDIT: And also because I did better than the previous one, though not by a huge margin.

My grandmother finally has absolutely no idea who I am, and I feel... relieved.

She was a narcissistic, abusive person, but I still feel screwed up feeling this way.

Important matters need to be discussed, Ethel. And when important matters are discussed, it is absolutely mandatory that you are present.

To those who haven't used tobacco products...don't. Quitting smoking again reminds me how stupid I was to start smoking again after two years of kicking it the first time.

I spent the last... two years juggling between quitting and not quitting. Had my last cigarette in either late March or early April, can't quite remember. Cold Turkey or bust.

Cold turkey was the only thing that worked for me too, a couple of friends swore by patches and gum but all they did was remind me that I wasn't smoking. Grumping it out and keeping your hands busy über alles.

IIRC cold-turkey has the highest success rate of any method of quitting smoking. Nicotine patches are a scam.
