My Hobby

"A Slave of Television"

"Suroy-suroy pud anak! Unsa man ning anaka ni nga wala may guha-guha sa balay". That is what I usually hear to my mother's mouth when I have no class, during weekends, and or during vacations. You may wonder why but it is because I never go outings, playing basketball or any sports with my cousins or my neighbors. I admit that I miss it in my life. I am not close with my cousins because I only spend my leisure time watching TV. From 7 in the morning to 11, then 1 to 5 in the afternoon, and 6 to 11 in the evening. This was become my usual routine. And by the time moves on, my habit become worst and worst. It is because I am still watching TV even when we have test and periodical test. How matter my mother scoll me, I'll just ignore it, because I could not let the TV setting on its place and not functioning. So my habit contineous.

If you read the "Short Story of my Life in College", I have stated there that our means of livelyhood was gone or destroyed. Because of that we were not able to pay our monthly payment for the cable TV, so our connection was cut. I may regret about our livelyhood but I never regret about the disconnection of our cable because at least my bat habit will gone. I thanks for it, until one day there is a news that could either be good or bad to me. My Lola got connected in cable TV, so good because I could watch TV again but bad because I could not totally erase my habit. For that, I ask the duplicate key of my Lola so that I could get inside in their house and watch TV even when they were not there. I could still remember that I had promised to myself before not to watch TV too much, but I've never done it. The reason is only one and it is because I am already a slave of television.

You may say my hobby is very bad and I agree. But I'll tell you, I am now fighting against myself to avoid my habit. And believe me I have gone far.
