5 hours to Dawn. My eyes are heavy, burning and red. My computer screen blares in-front of me, "Beautiful Split!, But it's not enough! Leenock just has too much stuff! Clide's army is being laid to waste!"

I've been staying up watching the GSL since January. I love the matches. But my eyes do not.
When I look out now to the office windows and beyond to the passing clouds. I can see my vision blurring as the distance increases.

Computers have blurred my vision. It wasn't immediate, I know it's preventable, but I strain my eyes too much. Staying up to late, watching too much, playing too much.

It's taken me many years, for the thrill of gaming to now lose it's lustre.
For my attention to draw away.
The change is coming thou.

Repetitively my desires for gaming are dying.
As each time I play a game and can feel the want diminishing.

Right now I feel my eyes show how unfocused I am as an individual. How the blurring of my vision is like the blurring of my desires. The lack of focus on the future.

But that's changing.
A trip to france in december. Starting up my own on the side business.
I have new things in my life now.

I hope and want a change.
My eyes need to show the focus and clarity of my soul.

i feel the same way as you, after the release of SC2Beta, i have not played SC:BW much at all. I cannot run sc2 very well unfortunatly and therefore cannot continue gaming...

I'm going to Europe this summer, and I will be visiting Paris :D.

It's sad that you are losing interest in gaming. I hope you get back to it!
