Hookah


My newly discovered passion!!!
Hookah, hubbly bubbly, shisha, waterpipe, nargileh, goza sooo many names for such a lovely thing.
As per wikipedia my shisha is defined as :
A hookah (Hindustani: हुक़्क़ा (Devanagari), حقّہ (Nastaleeq) huqqah) also known as a waterpipe is a single or multi-stemmed (often glass-based) instrument for smoking in which the smoke is cooled and filtered by passing through water. The tobacco smoked is referred to as shisha or sheesha. Originally from the Indian Subcontinent,hookah has gained popularity, especially in the Middle East and is gaining popularity in North America, Europe, Australia and Brazil.
That was in brief the description of my new hobby...addiction?!?
We were introduced in 2009 and it was love at 1st sight. Have to admit the beginning was kinda edgy with coughing and stuff but we hit it off right away :))))
Accompanied with Tea with mint and your in 9th heaven. It helped me through horrible companies when you can't find a shit to say(and mind you that happens alot), you just pretend you're just wasted in shisha.
Smoking a shisha is 10 times as harmful as smoking one ciggy but soooooo whhhhhhhaaat  so many years have been wasted already what's a few years gonna add?
Is it addiction? Well if you call thrice a week addiction than hell yes. There no place i 'd rather be right now than sequoya with ola hubbling bubbling surrounded by lovely shisha smoking people at a place jammed with smoke haaaa....
I went to the extent of getting myself one at home okay okay not to be compared with the biiiig original cairo ones but it's a consolation sort of.
Yes Noha I resisted alot and it was high time i give in...Shisha you're more than welcomed in my life please take the lead.
