Some Background Information

I guess you can say that I'm a World of Warcraft addict. I started playing the game in 2006. It was love at first sight. I made my first character, Myoji, a Night Elf Druid. The more I played as her, the closer I became to her. She was like a sister to me; a twin sister, even. You see, WoW was my escape from the real world. At the time, my RL (real life) wasn't easy to deal with (hell, it still isn't). In the summer of 2007, I had played for a total of 600+ hours. Crazy, I know. It was/is my life.

I quit the game for several months that year due to a conflict with someone on my server. I had abandoned my love Myoji, and I knew I wouldn't be coming back to the server, no matter how bad I felt. Myoji remains level 70 today.

Several months later, I retured to WoW. I chose a server that a few of my classmates were on. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately, whatever), those kids switched to another server when they had a chance to move to a lower population server, for free. Anyway, here I made my second sister, Totalia, a Blood Elf Paladin. I made plenty of online friends. I had so much fun leveling with my good buddies. Once I reached level 80, I had time to do some of the easier raids. But not for long.

I haven't play the game in nearly a year. WoW affected my grades and my social life. I never went out, I never did homework. I even lost some friends. My mother decided it was time for her to intervene. She completely removed my computer from the house. I mean, I really don't blame her for doing so. But still, it was pretty harsh. I no longer have my escape from the cruel world. At least I think life is cruel, at this point in time. I sit and think about WoW all the time. I think about it more so lately. I'm not going to lie, I've cried about it. I just want my computer and my game back. It's everything to me.

I know this all sounds completely crazy and ridiculous, but its true. You can say that this all comes from the eyes of an addict. But hey, at least I'm not addicted to some drug. No matter how crazy and looney I sound, I had to get these feelings out. And I need to figure out a way to get WoW back, and without it affecting my life negatively.

It's here I ask that you visit my blog every now and then, possibly helping me think of ways to convince my parental units to give my computer back. I need it.
