my addiction unveiled...

i have a confession to make. it's very serious so even if it sounds like a joke, i ca assure you it isn't. please, i beg of yuo as my fellow bloggers to hear me out and not judge me.

there's no easy way for me to say this but....

*standsup*

my name is grace....and i... am addict.

there. it's in the open.

now i'm not addicted to the traditional stuff, like heroin or alcohol. i am in face addicted to a little game called 'farm ville' on facebook.

i know this seems like a bit of an anti-climax, but i swear it's been tearing me appart!

i've stayed up until the early hours of the morning nigh on a week for the solepurpose of harvesting some artichokes that i planted the previous week. it's a viscious cycle.

i just can't leave it alone, because i planted those seed, i i feel i am responsible for nurturing them and loving each and every strawberry.

until a few days ago.

...

to put things simply, intervention. i realised that there was absolutely no point to the game. it was just plant, harvest, plant, harvest, plant, harvest day after day!

how could i have been so blind?

this experience really woke me up and i finally realised how easily i can slip into an obsessive insanity, especially with gaming (something that i love without limit).

so i've decided to take a break, and actually leave well enough alone. after all, if you can't maintain, abstain!

...wow... that was pretty good for a phrase i just made up.... i should do this more often...


aside from that, i need to get started on my homework for psychology. 'tis good homework though and i'm glad i picked it.

short meaningless post today, but with a sweet philosophicalish ending.

just right.

later then!
