Getting Addicted..

There cannot be someone who doesn't get addicted to something or the other at some point of time. ( sorry about the excessive some's! ) I'm no exception to it. I have been addicted to so many things since i came to Bangalore, fortunately all enjoyable addictions!
The first one. After trying to do some work, at which i failed miserably, i took to a lot of orkutting. Typing scraps in tamil has suddenly grabbed my attention. I find it fun to type in tamil, especially to someone who cannot make head or tail out of it!"Dei don't do too much" is a standard reply. But its fun to watch people that way. They really get irritated. So from now on, if you have any enemies, start typing everything in a script they cannot decipher. There are 5 options in orkut, so choose your script and shoot!
The second one. Foosball. What a game! The designer of this game must have had a lot of blows and hardships in life i guess ! ;) We already have formed a team consisting of four. The next step is to set up sessions: pre-lunch, post-lunch, pre-dinner, post-dinner and on some crazy days, during the evenings. Whether we are working or not is secondary, me buying a foosball table in the house that I dream to build is vouched. 'Foos' has already become more stylish for we call it 'Fooz' now. So its high time confuse becomes confooz!!
The third one. Typeracer and Slapster. Now that its already evident that i have nothing to work on, the only thing left is exploring everything in orkut. In such a search, typeracer and slapster stand out uniquely. Slapster first, the best application to pass time, to take revenge on someone you loathe, to improve your mouse handling skills :) . You just don't know how your time dissolves like sugar in water when you are at it. The next and the better one, Typeracer. Sporting a very interesting GUI feigning a car race is this interesting application that improves the typing speed on continued practice. Just wish i had the time to invite my friends and race. Now its just restricted to random people and guests. Even thought Orkut is trying to copy facebook a lot, it seems to be a crowd-puller for it has a very light interface. Facebook, on the other hand is very crowded and tries to stuff lot of things onto one screen which hampers readability. If you are really looking at your watch very frequently and have nothing at all do, typeracer is your solution!
Finally, the season finale of House MD. Its quite surprising that I'm not making a separate post for the last two episodes of the season for they deserve one. But then, it has become one more addiction too. Now that 4 seasons of House MD are over, i have been watching them continuously. None of the episodes match the strong storyline and technical brilliance of the last two episodes in season four. These two episodes have actually made me watch previous episodes again and again, for which i actually had a big argument with my cousin asking how she could watch them again and again! But them i'm defeated now! The finale has just vaporized any blocks I had to watch the episodes again and again. Guess she is going to have some company when we meet next time :) If anyone is as jobless as I'm and is getting addicted to things, they could drop by and leave out their experiences as comments!
