Video Game FAST!
Video games have their ups and their downs. If you play video games with a bunch of friends, it can actually help build stronger relationships. The bad side to video games is that if you play it on your own...it's really a big waste of time! Ladies and Gentlemen...what I am suggesting here is that I am going on a ONE WEEK VIDEO GAME FAST! I usually play between 1-2 hours of video games PER DAY! I thought to myself..." How much more could I accomplish everyday if I spent that time doing productive things?" And so this is my experiment, not only to see how much more I get accomplished...but also to see WHAT it is that I accomplish in that time. If I just end up doing something else that is a waste of time...then there really is no reason for this "fast". I plan to read books (reading Agenls&Demons....amazing book!), practice the guitar and tombak, maybe actually spend time opening my backpack and doing some school homework ( which has been quite difficult to do ever since I got my acceptance to Western), and finally read and deepin myself in the Baha'i Writings ( FRIG thats important). Every day I am reminded of the importance of reading about Religion. Personally, I believe that there is a God, and I believe that if there is a God, then God would send Messengers to help guide humanity...soo....reaing ANY Scriptures from any religion can only be beneficial! I hope to give a bidaily report on my progress with the Video Game Fast! I could use some "encouragement" in the "comments", so COMMENT IT UP!

Erfan not playing video games? What is the world comming to?! It's a good thing you've got other things to "distract" you from you beloved games. You may want to hide your video games...they may start calling your name. lol Good Luck though. And did Mrs. Benslomo's lecture today about being accepted and giving up actually get to you? I mean who does Biology homework anymore??? lol
May the force be with you.
Sama...I must make aware...that the force IS strong with me! Don't you worry about THAT!
Sandra...good point...No..Ben-shlomos lecture really had no effect on me...actually, if anything, it reminded me how I can't possibly lose my acceptance unless I do no work. I probably SHOULD hide the games...considering that the xbox is in my room, it makes it more difficult that way! I have decided though to make some modifications to my "rules". I had mentioned that playing video games by yourself is useless....but its good when you play with a group of friends, and for that purpose, I have decided that if there IS a big group of friends (atleast 3), then I will join them in playing video games, because if I didn't...I would consider that being antisocial.
