World of warcraft. I had a friend who had access to the beta (Yes the beta) I played it for a bit and was a HUGE blizzard fan. D2 SC WC3 I've sunk so many damn hours into these games I'm actually embarrassed. Anyways I was 13 when it was released in grade 7. I would tell my parents who didn't know any better than my school was doing a test pilot and we did all our home work online. They didn't ask questions they just said sure. So they bought me a computer and it was in my room. Well I played it excessively through my high school year. I barely passed classes didn't pass tests or do homework. Yet still somehow managed to graduate. Well grade 12 rolls around and I get a job so I can pay for this addiction of mine (was paying it via paper route before @ $50/month) while at my job I meet this girl who changed me. Kinda opened my eyes realizing there was something outside of world of warcraft. But like the idiot I was fucked up and got consumed by it again.

Played it or even more time once I barely graduated high school. Got another girl friend at a new job I got to fuel my red bull and warcraft addiction. How ever this girl changed my life for the better. I did the unthinkable... I Uninstalled the game... she saw past my addiction and saw the real me. My subscription ends in 3 more years since I was an idiot and bought 10 years of subscription for my graduation gift to my self...

TL:DR addicted to wow, met girl, girl saved me from my addiction.
