Outgrowing the TV Madness

Have you ever been once too much attached to the TV? In short, TV addicted? I admit when I was young I've been addicted to watching TV. I wake up early during summer vacation just to watch Anime shows in AXN. I sleep late at night to watch local or Hollywood movies on cable TV. But that was years and years ago.

I realized that as we grow up, so do our priorities, hobbies and interests. Though some may be retained, a lot will have to go down as our age goes up. As I entered college, things shifted a little bit. TV wasn't so much important to me than when I was in high school. I remember this hilarious thing that I usually "run" home fast just to watch my favorite TV shows. But I realized in college that it was just a waste of time and energy though arguably, it was my source of happiness.

In college, my addictive tendencies got out from the TV box to the computer screen. Discovering a whole new and infinite world is more exciting than staring at the black box called TV. Until now, I am still addicted to the internet. Well not really excruciatingly addicted but in layman's terms, yeah, addicted. I rarely watch TV now. I know the current shows but I don't watch them. Before I used to watch news but now not anymore. Did I miss TV? A bit. But as long as the internet lives, the TV will not be on top priority.

How about you? TV or internet? It won't hurt to get the best of both worlds though.
