Awesome man, I remember when I first started smoking cigars and I was on summer break from college so I smoked two back to back and had to lie on the floor cause I was so buzzed! Good times! Welcome to the Asylum.

Its not THAT slippery

I went from 0 to about 130 cigars in my possession in what 3-4 weeks. OOPS

My poor 300 count is about to get owned fast.

Thats how it's supposed to be new and fun, congrats on the new "hobby" COUGH addiction COUGH.

To help with the buzz I find that having a can of soda like Coke or 7up can help make you feel better if you think you feel sick from it.

I haven't had to have one in awhile, but when I first started smoking cigars, a big churchill or a 6"x60 would do me in pretty badly lol.

Jelly beans are good with the Erin go Bragh irish whiskey. I'm not fond of flavored cigars, the the jelly beans made it palateable.

Congrats on your first cigar! If you find yourself getting bored, smoke with a friend, read a book or magazine (a little more interactive than listening to one), or watch tv/play video games. There are people whom setup the garage with tvs, laptops, game counsels, and whatnot to entertain themselfs while smoking.

Great idea, I will try some of that. I listen to an audiobook because of my eyes, they do not allow me to read normal print. I can not smoke in the house because I live with others. So I just will make the best of what I have and still have fun.

Good advice. When I smoke, I sit outside with my laptop and surf the web, play flash games, ect.. Smoking alone can be very boring without a friend, so finding ways to entertain yourself is key.

Nice! I'm glad you found this place so early in your hobby, it's a source of information I wish I had had starting out. These guys will have you smoking the good stuff in no time

And don't worry about the nicotine "high," as long as you gradually ease into the fuller bodied smokes and smoke every couple of weeks your body get's used to processing the nicotine. Just smoke slowyl, on a full stomach, stay hydrated and keep a snack nearby and you'll be fine!

Congrats on your first cigar and going back to school! Sugar is good when the nicotine hits you, but it also helps to have something in your stomach. Enjoy the journey!
