Facebook Games

Alright, I'll admit it. I have a bit of an addiction to Facebook Games when I am out of other things to do. Basically, when I get bored I tend to go on Facebook and when I get bored on Facebook I tend to click on the games. I used to stick to just The Hunger Games Adventures but once the Holidays started I found myself with so much more free time and you only have limited energy to use in The Hunger Games Adventures that slowly refills by one energy every five minutes. This means I finish what I am doing in that game and have nothing else to do. Then I decided I would just look through some of the other games that Facebook has and that is when it all started.


At first I was just searching for some fun games and then the games I actually did find I stopped playing pretty quickly. I only really began to 'enjoy' the games I was playing when they were the recommended ones on the top-right corner of the screen when you are playing another game. From there I found a game called Airport City: Free to Fly which I still play today. Then I found another game I played a while ago and then came back to the other day. This one was The Price is Right which would be alright except I am horrible at guessing those American prices. Most of the time it is luck if I actually win anything but I think I am starting to get the knack of it. See what I mean? It sounds like I have been addicted to these games doesn't it? From there I found Car Town and another game called Fitness City which is basically just building and managing a gym as well as completing missions along the way. So these holidays have been great for the people who own these games but not for me. I have only mentioned a few of the games I actually went through but the only games I play now are The Hunger Games Adventures (obviously) and Car Town (just because I can). So as you can see I was addicted to these games as a release for me to get through my boredom but I have had to cut back because, well, I am becoming bored again. I have some really weird addictions but I am pretty sure that Facebook Games have become a part of it.

Facebook Games are a great way to combat boredom but be careful not to become addicted, see you tomorrow!

Excitement

We all get excited from time to time. Even the most serious of us have had one moment of excitement in their lives. Excitement can make us anxious and nervous but in a 'good' way. I put good in quotation marks because I can as this is my blog and I can write what I want. Why am I writing about excitement? Because tomorrow is my Birthday (YAY!) and I'm turning 16 (I can get a  Second Life account now!) which is super exciting. So in today's post I am going to talk about the things that excite me because I'm too excited to do a deep and meaningful post about excitement. How many times can I write excitement in this post about excitement? Check at the end for the final excitement count for this post (about excitement)!


One of the main things that excites me is THE HUNGER GAMES! If you don't know what the Hunger Games is where have you been? The moon perhaps. I just totally LOVE The Hunger Games and got super excited when the teaser trailer for CATCHING FIRE was released. In fact I wrote a blog about it where the whole first paragraph was a link to the trailer. Hell, let's do that again. Click anywhere on this paragraph and you can watch the Catching Fire Trailer again! Then watch it a few more times while you're there AFTER you finish reading my blog. I don't know why I like The Hunger Games I just do and I get really excited about it and I can't wait until November 22nd! If you don't know the significance of this date, click anywhere on this paragraph! I get so excited about The Hunger Games that anytime The Hunger Games Adventures (a Facebook game) updates I have a little fan-girl-ing  session for a little bit because I get to play it again! It's so exciting and I just love how it ties into the movies and books  and even has its own parts and adventures! PLUS it has a map of Panem! So yeah, I get pretty EXCITED when it updates and I get to play it. I guess I just get excited about The Hunger Games. I got the movie soundtrack from my cousin for being her Confirmation Sponsor the other week and as soon as I got home I was listening to it. I was so EXCITED! I'm sorry if I use caps-lock too often or too many exclamation marks, I'm just really excited!




The final thing I am really super duper (did I just type duper?) excited about is King Kong Live on Stage which is the new King Kong musical premiering next month (well, actually the preview shows start at the end of this month) which I have been super excited about since October 8, 2012 when I saw the ad for it on Facebook and saw the announcement they did (on October 7, so I've been excited about it for almost the whole time it's being announced) and I just got really excited for it and can't wait to see it because I know it is gonna be awesome! I'm really excited about it and I know I'm getting tickets to go see it for my Birthday (which yeah, is tomorrow [EXCITED]) and I'm just so excited to see the musical that I have been looking forward to for so long. It's from the company Global Creatures who did the ones like Walking with Dinosaurs except this time they're doing a musical with its world premiere at the Regent Theatre Melbourne which is going to be awesome and I am just super excited about it! I can't wait, the excitement is killing me (figuratively of course).


So that's just some of the stuff that really excites me and I know today's post isn't as meaningful or as well-written as some of my previous ones but I'm just so excited I can't think straight!! I just can't wait for all these things and I am really EXCITED!!!! Now for the all exciting, word count for the word excite. The word excite (and all the words that can be made from it (i.e. excited)) has been used 38 times in this blog post, have fun finding them all or just be satiated by using the find (ctrl+f) function.

May the odds be ever in your favour, see you tomorrow!
