Does anyone on WordPress play World of Warcraft?
Up until just a few months ago, I’ve heard of this game but it honestly never interested me much. It just seemed like a time waster and I could not understand what was so fascinating about killing plainstalkers and completing quests in cities called Orgrimmar.
Fast forward a few months, and now I seem to be spending whole days on that game. Just a few weeks ago, I was absolutely shocked to discover that six hours went by that I was glued to the computer. It literally turned from day to night without my knowing it, and my window was open. Now, when I wake up I am more interested in completing my quest than I am in eating breakfast. Warcraft has turned me into a gaming nerd of sorts.
Lately, I’ve realized that there is an actual world outside the computer. I discovered a new Chinese hot pot place with a good friend today. I drew a picture of an eagle. I saw an ex at a high school reunion on Saturday. Sure, it’s not as fun or adventurous of a life as I used to have in college, but it’s quite nice to know that there is a world outside World of Warcraft. I should never forget to remind myself of this, if I ever hope to enjoy life to the fullest.
Tomorrow’s big adventure away from the computer: yoga. My life gets more exciting every day. 😉
