Impulse Moment

Hi there! My name is Kate!

I guess this will be sort of a journal of mine. I go to college, and finally realized (although my grades aren't sinking as a result of this addiction) that the Facebook games were eating away at my existence. I have put off friends, procrastinated on homework, wasted away hours of my youth on goddamn Farmville. So, today, out of impulse, I removed the following:

1) Farmville: The first and biggest. My farm was QUITE an impressive establishment. I had 50+ trees and animals. While it wasn't the most MASSIVE of ALL farms, it was pretty big. I harvested and grew. I think my farm really started to become impressive last semester when my friends, Jackie and Jose would go on Farmville with me during my English class. The professor KNEW we were on the computers, but she only caught us a couple of times, and she merely told us to shut it off. It was great, we had an hour every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to goof off. The best part was was that were were one of the few in the class who participated REGULARLY. Oh, the irony!

Then I went to a harder college, and I can't goof off during class AND get an "A" in said class. Darn that overachiever in me.

2) Petville
3) Fishville
4) Pet Society
5) Happy Habitat
6) Triple Triad
7) Cafe Society

I felt horrible as I deleted Petville and Pet Society. My heart sank, I feel like something in my life is missing, like I committed and atrocity to someone who I care for deeply. My poor creatures, they didn't even know it was coming! And I had taken care of them this morning! PLUS, I had this really cute cat and dog in Pet Society and I liked to take of them because they were so cute, and I miss my dog and cats back home and...


I am not helping myself. I know they are virtual, I swear I am not that stupid.

Happy Habitat and Triple Triad weren't THAT hard for me to delete, I was losing interest in them, and although I dabbled a bit in those games, but nothing SERIOUS.

I had stopped playing Cafe Society a while ago, it bored me, and my food kept spoiling. I was sane enough to realize that I couldn't plan my life on a virtual game. Although I did try for Cafe Society and Farmville. To be fair, I haven't planned my life around those games in a while. Life is too chaotic.

Speaking of which, I have to head to a club now, an hour of absolute boredom. Yuck. But when I return I will NOT be able to go back onto all those different facebook applications. Yay?

Except two. Happy Aquarium, because I have fish that still need to grow (yeah, yeah I know) but they should ALL be "grown" in about a week, which is when I will sell them all and remove it. The other game (application) is Mafia Wars, which I may keep, because you collect certain goods you buy with virtual cash. There is a certain limit, you buy/upgrade so you can collect money, in a few hours. This may actually help studying, every two hours or so, I will take a break and check my Mafia, and then when I am done, I will go back to studying.

OK, I am now running late. Merde.
