Early warning: This is your body reminding you that it is very unhappy with the fact that you are poisoning your lungs and the rest of your body with the products of smoking. The mucus contains some of the toxins, but many remain to attack your body. Perhaps this can motivate you at your young age to stop this before serious damage occurs.
