Addiction...even I wanna describe what addiction really is...
about 2-3 years ago..I'm in 10th grade...summer holidays...recently been introduced to strategy games...got my hand on Age of Empires...load it on my pc...start it up.
Don't know what time i started the game...mom calls me downstairs for dinner...ask her to send it to my room...after that, start all over again and take my eyes off the pc only at 5 a.m. because i'm hungry again and only to find out that everyone in the house is asleep.
go to sleep, wake up at about 2 or 3 in the afternoon...just start up my pc again...start aoe. about an hour or so later, have my "breakfast" (also upstairs) (note here that i haven't bathed or brushed my teeth), continue with aoe, have some snack in the evening (also in my room), continue with aoe, have dinner (needless to mention where), continue with aoe, sleep at about 4 or 5 in da morning.
trust me, this was my routine throughout 90% of my summer vacation. the only breaks i had were to either go to the loo, or when there was some kinda power failure. it was only during these short breaks that i went to the loo or took time to bathe or brush my teeth and all.
i, to this day, thank the electricity deptt. for those power failures.
but trust me, it dint end there. there was also transport tycoon deluxe, worms and many more. i know that these all were old games but those were the only ones i liked.
