First Time Smoking Cigarettes: Will Albena Become Addicted?
This is a full on-topic candid discussion about smoking cigarettes. Albena is from Bulgaria, a fitness fanatic and a non-smoker. But she has an attraction to guys who smoke and she also had a desire to sample some cigarettes herself.
So, one afternoon in London Albena and myself met to capture her smoking cigarettes for the first time and to document her feelings and thoughts on smoking.
This 16 minute clip features full dialogue on the topic of smoking cigarettes. Early on in the compilation – in the first 40 seconds I confirm that Albena is smoking her first ever cigarette. She confirms it is and then explains that she knows she should be inhaling but conveys:
'If I do that I feel like it's going to damage me'.
Aside from some nice on-topic dialogue there's plenty to please the viewer. As Albena smokes a few cigarettes she tries hard to learn how to inhale. There's some coughs as she learns the process of breathing smoke into her lungs. She later says:
'I feel like I'm wasting it because I'm not doing it properly'.
When Albena tried some menthol cigarettes she explains that they are easier to inhale. She agrees that she still coughed a little but nonetheless the menthol smoke was more subtle and easier for her lungs to absorb. We discuss how the smoke feels in her lungs and Albena explains that it feels relaxing. This is such a positive comment for a novice smoker and an encouraging sign!
As she progresses onto her third cigarette I ask her: 'is it becoming easier to smoke now you've tried a few?' and she agrees that it is.
I'm really pleased with this clip because it showcases a model who bucks the anti-smoking trend. She's a natural smoker with a natural style and there's plenty of content here to absorb. I'm certain you'll also enjoy it.
