sorry all those who have entered, my internet has been out until just today, and i have been extremely sick, still am. i'm trying to find time to read them all. all apologes.
Addictions.
We all have them, none are better then the other.
Most of the time an addictions developes as a result of a problem going on in your life, it's like a way to escape, and sometimes, you just become consumed by it.
They call it an addiction because it is something added to your life, that you can't function without, because it has become a part of who you are.
Now many people may disagree with me but it's just my opinion.
My addiction of three years were pills, pain killers to be exact. They were my way to escape the pain and troubles in my life.
My current addiction is Starbucks, lol.
well, anyways, the point in this contest is just to give people an opening to get things off their chest and talk about their addictions, past or present, and how they feel about it etc, i want you to just spill your heart out.
I'll be judging it by the ones with the most feeling I suppose, but really, no one looses.
only rule, please, no sticky caps.
