Though its pretty embarrassing for some people for the society have this stereotype about those who don't drink and smoke, but as for me, I am pretty proud about it. It really takes some discipline and self-control to refrain from those temptations and I somehow managed to conquered it. What do you think about this?

Ha ha ha, well i would like to mention here that people who stereotype those who do not drink or smoke are themselves stereotyped people and they should be concerned about themselves and not about others.
U should not feel alone as i also fall into your category n i feel proud when i say that i do not drink or smoke, that is my personality and i wont change.

That is very nice you have a strong self discipline and living a healthy life, self control is a sign of strength, it is really hard to resist temptations. I'm like you before, i'm living a simple life i don't drink and i don't smoke, and i have a sensitive attitude when i'm younger which is not good, i actually scold a person beside me when he/she is smoking.
But time changes as i find my first job i have to change things to that i will understand some things in life, i am the one who make advice to my friends on not to smoke and drink, and one of them told me " don't make advice on things that you don't have any idea or never tasted it".

I think you're fine, there's nothing wrong with us (non-smokers and non-drinkers). That doesn't make us any less cooler than the ones who do. We just chose not to indulge in these things in as much as those who do have their own free-will to partake in smoking and drinking. It is their choice, pretty much like ours.

there used to be just social drinkers. now there are social smokers as well. i've tried drinking but i ended up itching all over. i've never smoked. but sometimes, i honestly wish i learned how, especially when i'm really stressed or tense.
