Distracted

I went to Garden City, wanting to buy bean bags and shopping for a new mobile phone contract.
Shamelessly to say, I bought none of the bean bags nor phone… cause I was distracted by several very artistic boxes. Hmm, what’s that? So, I bought one. ^_*

 

Oh! Didn’t know it is a box of cigarette. *cough cough* PEEL Menthol Orange. How yum is that?
I like the packaging. FYI, I am a big sukker of fine art, you see. =)

I opened up the box, realising the alumnium foil used to protect the cigarette is somewhat very artistic too. No regret. Silver background with orange ‘PEEL’ wordings. How beautiful is that!

Even the cigarette itself is so colorful. Darn those tobacco company!! They are indeed very creative and artistic. Like that idea of beautiful packaging.

Anyhoo.. I have no intention to encourage you ppl to smoke, you see. This is a message from Government:: 

 

Yeah, Smoking causes lung cancer. Scary right? =P

But, if you like to experience menthol orange flavor, I suggest this is what you can do.
You need 3 ingredients:
- a bubble tea jumbo size drinking straw
-an orange
- menthol chewing gum.

Chew the chewing gum. Meantime, smash the orange on the floor, or bang on the wall or hit it on your forehead, unpeeled. Poke the straw hard into the orange. Spit the gum, and suck the orange juice straight from the orange.

Yeah, I kid you not.

Try it! It is cool–exactly like the flavor of PEEL Orange Menthol. Just without nicotine.

Trust me! ^_*
