I am very addicted to Facebook and Blog recently. Almost everyday I will login to my facebook to check up any new update from my friends and same time can chit chat with them too. I managed to find some old mates that have lost contact for quite some times. So happy can meet them at Facebook again.
Blogging is another hobby for me.I started blogging about 2 years back...with a motivation from my friends. And now I have my own blog whereby I can write about my life,my sadness & happiness and also about my little son.
Tell me more about you.....anything made you addicted to recently??
Happy Lotting!!

I have both blog and Facebook. Lately I'm so addicted to facebook for network updates and games. The Farm Town game is the one I addicted the most since the past few weeks. Everyday I will think of what to plant and plant more and more to earn coins, how to decorate my farm and hire ppl to plow and harvest. hahaha, although it earns me nothing, I simply can get de-stress by doing so.
I'm kind of abandon my blog lately and I feel I should go back to that soon. Not only I'm not writing new post on blog, I also not blog hopping to others due to busy farming...haha. Anyway, just kind of lack of motivation and lazy at this moment, or really, the Farm Town is pulling me everyday.

Hi Lemonjude, I think most of my friends are into some games from Facebook. Some are addicted to Pet Society, Farm Town, Restaurant City and so now. In fact, there are too many free games offer in Facebook, what you want , you just name it, and they have for you. I am sorry to hear from you that you have abandon your blog for quite some times already. Actually you should plan your time wisely in order you are not getting too addict or playing too long for the online game. I hope to visit your blog soon with some new update on you!

Frankly speaking, I never touch the games at Facebook yet since I join as a member. I also don;t think I have that time to play game there. I prefer to use my time to surf net ,updating my blog and chat with my friends.
I hear that alot of my friends are addicted to Farm Town too.It makes me curious how fancy is this game about. Maybe I will try to look it out one day.

Addiction to the computer is something that difficult to cure.. for FB, we will be excited when we know our long lost friend is online, and able to keep in contact, therefore we will be eager to log in.. and with those new games available in FB, more and more ppl get addicted..
blog, a vitual diary, is something we write and rant about our daily lifes.. the journey we walk through.. and being a blogger, it's always nice to visit other people blogs too..
the above 2 are also my addiction, and the latest one will be MyLot, since I log in every day without fail, and I enjoy myself very much here too..

Hi Cwong, I love Mylot too.. I admit I am addicted at Mylot too. I cant stop mylotting for even 1 day. I like to give response to the interesting discussions, more over some time there are other member barging in my response and I will comment back, this way make the discussion more interesting ! And apart from what we do here, we get our earning as well. This is what I like it. though it is very little earning, only few cents everyday, but I still get excited when Mylot update the earning for us every night. My hubs make a joke to me. He asked me how much I can earn every night. And I told him the earning is so little only, he said he wanted to give double of the pay for me and so that I can stop mylotting and get more time to rest, LOL. But we know we are not mean for money right? We have just addicted on it,

vingyan.. I admit I started MyLot with the intention to earn.. but slowly, it's no longer the earnings anymore... I really like to see the different aspects of people looking into stuff, and also give us more ideas on how to handle things too..:)
Happy MyLotting..

Hi Cwong,
I love Blogging too. I will always try to find my free time to update my blog and same time do blog hopping.
I just love to read other people's blog and sometimes I can learn something from reading the blog too.
I will only stop sitting in front of my laptop when I am sick or have some urgent thing to attend to. If not, I wish I can have more time in my laptop.
Lately, some friends introduce me to MyLot. I am not that addicted to it yet. But for sure, I will give a comments and try to post some new discussions when I have a free time.It is good that I can share my opinions with people out there and same time I can earn some bucks from it. No harm to do it,right?

Addicted to history, new thing for me. I never attracted to history before.It is too complicated for me,I guess and I feel hard to understand about it.I can say that I have zero history in my mind now.
Since you are very interested in history,It is best to get some History Books in the bookstore or you can easily get info from internet.

Hey,
Yea I think that I am rather addicted on the computer, but in a way it is quite good. Because I am also addicted to MyLot, and in a way it is really good. Because without MyLot, my life would be even more boring. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

Hi EliteUser,
You are seem addicted to MyLot too. We are in the same boat.
I am addicted to MyLot this few weeks.No day without MyLot. As my earning is up and up everyday, it really boost up my energy to even work harder every night to reach my target. The earning figure encourages me to work more and more every day.
Hope both of us can reach our payout every month. Good Luck!

I've become addicted to my GPT sites. They don't really pay that much, but it's nice to see how much money I could make when I do different things. It's not like my full-time job where I have a fixed income. Earning in GPT sites is more exciting because the earnings depend on what I do, and if I do something extra, I would also have extra earnings.

GPT Site? It is my first time came across this site.
May I know what is this site talk about? And how to join it? and is it applicable only to certain country in the world?
Some people doing online surveys or other online job is for an xtra income. It is no harm to earn xtra income for ourself as we are still young and have an energy to do it.
Happy Mylotting!!

I am completely addicted to Etsy. I love to browse the shops. And there is a feature called "Pounce" that lets you see a selection of the most recent sales. I also crochet amigurumi stuffed creatures, so I browse Etsy for patterns or inspiration. I shop for supplies on there, and Christmas presents!
I'm also addicted to Facebook! In fact, I have it open right now.
I'm pretty happy to do anything to procrastinate from working on my MA Thesis!

Hi Moon,
I am addicted to Facebook lately. But not to the game in there. I am more in to the picture from my friends and try to get more new friends there. At same time, I managed to keep in touch with some old mates too. It is the best place to have a chit chat after tiring day.

Recently I am obsessed with Mylot. I am surfing the site for 8 hours straight joining discussions and reading other people's post. I never thought such website like Mylot exists.

I had no intention of becoming addicted to Facebook. But sure enough, it happened.
First, I signed up because a couple friends wanted me to join. Then I just had to add everyone I knew. There was sort of a self-contest to see how I can make my Facebook friends list bigger, so I obsessed over finding everyone I knew throughout my life. And now I'm addicted to trying to keep up with all these people???
Then I wanted to be the virtual gift fairy. I had to send everyone a virtual gift request to let them know I was thinking of them (and trying to figure out how to post it on their walls). I also loved getting something back. Let's not forget choosing the perfect SuperPoke action for each and every person.
Those quizzes drive me nuts, but sometimes I am curious to know what my results are. They are silly, so why I do keep taking them?
Lastly, I am addicted to SuperPoke Pets on Facebook, when I didn't initially want to be involved with it! I feed, tickle, clean, and have playdates for my little monkey and all my SuperPoke Pet friends. All to get greedy in getting coins so I can buy things to decorate my pet's habitat. I am sick!
I won't get into any of those games, like Mafia Wars. I better not!
I never thought of Facebook as my "hobby", but ahem, looks like it is!!
