Why the television is that addicting? Why
entertainment is that enthusing? Why this idiot box making me this stupid?
It has been a year
when I had successfully abstained from that stuff but as my father brought home
a new box to get addicted to, I easily got hooked and currently getting crazy
over the idiot.
Informative morning
talk show, the news programs, the endless cartoon and anime I had already
watched way back childhood, noontime variety show, afternoon dramas,
koreanovelas, evening news, movie telecast, PBA, and up to the late night shows
of those freakin’ host; I think that I can stay in front of our TV all day and
all night long.
The idiot box has
this effective tactics to hook its viewers, to cling a string on everyone, making
it hard for us to withdraw, to stay away, and to turn it off. Truly, this made
us stupid.
I can no more focus
on my assignments and tasks, I fail to update my blog , it made me feel lazy
and it dwindled my appetite on going to school, I can’t even finish the novel I’m
reading. Oh TV! Why you do this to me?
But however, the
power is still in my hands. It is just easy to lift the remote control and push
the “turn-off” button. But it takes a stronger spirit to overpower the will of
the flesh.
I am not an idiot
and I must not dwell 24 hours in front of that idiot box, well, that’s the
fighting spirit.
