<<   {hojita} Day Log Navigation   >>
My day was particularily normal. Classes as usual, came back, dinner by myself (
nobody was around), hanging around in my room installing (and then playing)
NetHack. I'm getting over my sickness, which means I'm still sick, but I am definitely beginning to feel better.
Classes drag on though. I'm not sure why I am here, to be honest. I probably could have graduated this semester with the credits I have with a
BS in
Computer Science, but
scholarship takes care of tuition, and so I feel like I should take the time to enjoy college while I'm here. I don't know what I'm going to do with my time in the next few semesters though. I could major in
Spanish if I took about 3 more classes, but it doesn't appeal to me. I'm thinking about taking a bunch of
Japanese for the heck of it, but that's only one class a semester.
*sigh* I know why I'm here for me, it's because I enjoy the people here, the atmosphere, the time I get to do what I want and still learn. But, it's these damn classes that keep getting in the way ;).
I have begun to slowly get addicted to
NetHack. I'm not sure why, being that it is only
text (or
tiles!) but it seems so
innocuous. I died a lot last night. More times than I wish to recount. *mumbles about
kitchen sinks and
black sludge that appeared*
YASD. End of story.
This has led me today to the conclusion that I am easily addicted to things. I don't drink or smoke, which is probably good considering that fact. But I just find myself wasting away playing games obsessively. As a kid, I played
Nintendo constantly. My mom had to
force me to go play outside. I got
Asheron's Call last spring, played over a week and a half in the first month of subscription. I burned out. Depression set in. Sold my character on
Ebay. But now, yet another evil looms on the horizon that I will obsess over.
*shrug*
Maybe everybody needs something to obsess about. Better a game than something harmful, or
unobtainable, or a person.
