Music-yes i am very much so addicted to music. i listen to my ipod every day & what i have on my laptop (aka lappy). people at work worry about me when i DONT have my ipod on. & yes it sounds like the oldest cliche but i am the type of person that listens to any genre of music
Nicotine-i used to smoke when i was 14 but i stopped after my mums dissapointment in me (really). i dont like to be around second hand smoke because it irritates my throat & eyes now
Adrenaline-when i did winterguard I had this sudden burst of adrenaline before i perfomed. it worked out well for me.
Alcohol-not an alcoholic i swear lol. just whenever the occasion rises i rarely say no to a good drink. its been mostly red wines though ( a great merlot always hits the spot)
Computer/Video games -i use lappy everyday
Internet chats/forums-im on one now right? lol. but along with JF im on other forums as well
Job/Work-not so much an addiction, but a neccesity, especially in this nations' economy
Social-this is a big addiction for me, whether in person or online i do socialize a lot...although i need to not do that too much at work
Drugs-prescription drugs-only take them as directed. thankfully never an addict to those other drugs. as expensive as them drugs are, forget it.
Other -reading. definetly my vice (only because i tend to ignore people, i get so into my reading).
as for other things...well...id rather not say here

I love thrills, but I wouldn't say I'm addicted to adrenaline. My friends think I'm creepy because I like the feeling of getting shots from the doctor, putting hand sanitizer over open wounds, and doing this bendy thing with my foot. This things hurt, but don't really hurt. They feel cool, persay.

I'm slowly getting addicted to coffee. Sometimes I can't stand not having anything. It's probably all mental, though.


Thanks for reading!

I consider myself addicted to the computer and music. Why? because I spend 7 out of the 14 hours I'm up on the computer, and when I can't get on, music is the only thing that keeps me sane and I can't go more than a few hours without it.

TV also, because it's another 3-5 of those 14 hours and I can't go a day without picking up the remote and watching at least two of my shows on Nickelodeon and one of my many TiVo'd episodes of The Proud Family.

internet chats/forums are a given, I spend hardly any time on the computer OFF the internet, it's the only place I can be immediately social instead of leering somebody like I do in the outside world (or MMOs >.>).


My life revolves around Japan
My life revolves around Korea
My life revolves around China
My life revolves around Asia
...got a problem with that? ><

Addiction?
I did have a very unhealthy one, though I knocked some sense into myself.
Not completely over it however, I'm a little ashamed to say what.

Alcohol, not an addiction, I just enjoy it if it's around.
I'll be taking a break from that, I hope.

An addiction not relating to my physical state would be my diary.
I absolutely must write in it everyday.
I have a fear that I will forget all these memories, so I want to record
them as I remember them.

I'm always listening to music, though I'm severly music retarded.
I can't name the band of a song, or name the song. If I hear it,
I'll recognize it, but I can't give any details about it unless I
have it stored on my Zune.

One that is not really serious : Pretzals.
On school days, I have at least pretzals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
It actually caused me to lose five pounds and I had to buy new school pants,
but I love them too much to give them up. People actually give me pretzals
at school for presents

People I don't even know come up to me asking for a pretzal at lunch.
It actually helped me make a few friends.

Aren't you a little bit too young to drink alcohol. Teenagers these days, they all want to try everything so fast.

Yes, but it's not a big deal. For some reason, people seem to think of it
as a popularity thing, but it's not. It's usually for celebration.
Though I think the party I went to on Friday was reasionable. A friend
of mine is going off to the military. So, y'know.

Trust me when I say this : I couldn't care less about it. I rarely do.

I should probably get a lock.
Though don't expect to understand it haha, because my thoughts
are unrelated and off the tip of my brain.
