As I am sitting here writing this, the sounds of Call of Duty Black Ops is being blasted out of my roommates television. You can also here the sounds of games being played all throughout the floor. Now I understand that video games can be fun as well as relieve some stress in the process, but there is such a thing as excessive game play. Honestly you know you have problem when you turn on the console as soon as you roll out of the bed. This video game addiction is effecting everything I do as well. It has resulted in many nights were I just simply can not get sleep because of the noise. I myself do actually play video games occasionally but no where near the amount of some people on this floor. I honestly feel that some of these people need help. They all run on very little sleep, get no exercise, and just constantly eat junk without even realizing it. Some one on my floor has gained 17lbs since he as been here, and he is one of these excessive gamers. I just think people should be a little more sensible about what there doing with there time.

Most of the boys I know are really into video games. I see some of the appeal. It is a good distraction from real life. I just dont know why girls werent born with this gene. Boys can pretty much pick up any video game and be pretty beast. Girls (or the ones I know) are limited to Guitar Hero and Just Dance.
ReplyDeletePeople have always told me I play way too many video games, and yet I still manage to stay active in sports. I probably do spend too much time gaming but I know people who spend even more time playing than I do. I was once part of a clan that wanted me to play 50+ hours of this one game a week as a way to practice. Of course I said no way because even if I had the time to there is no way I would actually put that much time into video games in a week.
