Distractions from Origami

What distracts you from origami? Like maybe there is a complex model you've been wanting to fold, but other things take up your time.

For me, it's work, graduate school, working on my home, and a new video game that came out here in the US: Grand Theft Auto IV. I'm finding it hard to put down the controller and pick up the paper!

Right now I'm playing Elite Beat Agents on Nintendo DS. After a whole day of non stop gameplay, I finally managed to finish Jumpin' Jack Flash on Sweatin' mode. It's...so...addictive...my neck...hurts...

Pretty much just school. Not even video games have been in my schedule this year... I used to game at least two hours a day.

And whenever the weather is nice here (in other words, when its stops raining 300 days out of the year) I take advantage when I can.

Not sleeping more than 2 hours a night, my time is divided in the small hours between folding or, on clear nights, stargazing.
I have so much time, I'm patiently working my way through the entire NGC catalogue of galaxies visible from my location with my ETX-80 telescope.
I found Elite Beat Agents addictive too.

HAHAHA yeah this forum keeps me from folding but also helps fold so I guess it is an even trade. I just got crisis core so that takes up a huge chunk of time.... soooooo good by the way! Um other than that watching tv/movies, cooking, cleaning my house, spending time with daughter/husband, taking care of my zillion pets, and lastly work. Oh, and writing, I'm working to be a novelist so I spend a good amount of time writing although you could say it's my writing that gets interrupted by origami and not the other way around :wink:

I thought you said you were 13 years old. Do your parents know you play Grand Theft Auto?? [-X I'm 14 and I've played and completed every single GTA game released for PS2 except GTA3, even though I clearly shouldn't. Touche' Image
