Hello everyone, I am Lotuph, a 30 y/o lady. I’ve been gaming since I was a young kid. And I never stopped or took a break from gaming. On Steam alone I have 27698 hours logged as of yesterday evening. I am considering quitting for good but I am still kinda in denial… So I’m starting with a break as a reality check.  nice meeting you all! love, Lotuph

You are doing so well by keeping going despite the unexpected problem, stay strong I believe in you!

Days 5 and 6 - Day 5 was alright, I tried to spend as much time as possible doing my uni work, I was in uni from 10-3 and then when I was home I was just trying to get stuff done, day 6 I handed in my uni work, I am a bit disappointed because I definitely didn't get round to doing as much as I had hoped, so I know that my marks are not going to be what I really thought they maybe should be, I really feel like I am a year and a half into my degree without enough knowledge and feel like I have not put anywhere near enough work in which I really said I would before I started, I have 2 weeks for another deadline so I really need to get my head into this and try as hard as I can to get something sorted.  On the upside I was distracted enough to not really think too much about video games, and I managed to write a cover letter to apply for a placement year job for my course so hopefully they get back to me about my application, would really like to work for a year and spend that time trying to learn a bit more as well but I do think it will be hard to secure a job as my skills are not what they should be. 

Hey yeah I did post on there, I have a different reddit account which is working okay but I kind of forgot I didn't actually log into it on my phone yet, so I will try that and see if that helps, it probably should do! I have my e reader and I should carry it around more, the problem I seem to have with that is I always feel I can't stop unless I am at the end of a chapter which can often take a fair bit of time for me
