I have never been a big gamer, meaning late nights and early mornings on the console, until I purchased an XBox. I am on it all day, every day, usually until 5AM. (Hence the JSRF until 6AM post the other day). Perhaps I am secretly trying to justify my purchase, or maybe I am beginning to love console gaming - in a big way.

I have also spent about £200 overall in games since the launch, roughly three weeks ago. I am not eating properly, and I certainly am not sleeping. To add to the distress I have numerous University exams when I get back after the easter holidays. I should be revising, I really should. To add to this, my housemate is coming home on wednesday, and I fear multiplayer XBox games will ruin any chance I had of passing me exams. What the hell am I to do? I just wake up and psychologically balance XBox or textbooks in my head, and only one comes through for me. My motivation has completely gone, and I am making excuses for not going out to see my friends and seeing my girlfriend. Has XBox changed my life? Has it changed yours?

Before I leave you all, I want to stress that if XBox has changed my life, it has in a good way, as I am enjoying myself far more due to the experience. See yas!
