School is back, not quite in full swing just yet, and with school comes work. It was a nice month long break away from life, but it has led into some undesirable habits. The worst of which is sitting around on the computer, with my lover World of Warcraft (WoW), until the wee hours of the morning (3am-4am). The latest patch is going to be the death of me, especially since it would seem it was implemented specifically for people like myself. Those of us who are altoholics and would rather play 10 different characters rather than focus on just one.
AND MASS EFFECT 2 RELEASES NEXT WEEK!
If the most recent changes to WoW don't end me, surely the sequel to one of my favorite console games will be my undoing. I can live with that though. I have 4 more days in which to sleep and get fully rested before destroying myself to play through a science fiction rpg several times once again. (I played through the original Mass Effect 4 times with different characters). I suppose I could make an attempt to start "acting my age", but really, who does that?
On a more productive not I have discovered the joys of writing once more after overloading myself during NaNoWriMo back in November. Instead of focusing on one novel like a sane person I ended up writing 10,000-20,000 on four different ideas. That is definitely the nice thing about school starting back up though, I tend to focus considerably better when there is a limited amount of time in which to do the things I enjoy instead of having all day every day to do things and never completing anything.
The remainder of the month will most likely be spent putting my nose back to grindstone and figuring what things it is that are important now. Sure I love my games, my addictions, but between school and the painful urge to write, investing the amount of time in games that I have in the past just no longer seems feasible.
