Bubbles

Over the last two and a half days all I have done is sit in my room and play computer games. Wow, sad revelation. I am not naturally a "social" person - the word "social" here used in the sense of going out to specifically see people or go out - but tomorrow I am going to play the part, Uni happens to be one of those places where it's hard not to be social. Unfortunately, at that point my bubble will be popped (if I continue with this metaphor).

However, if I take the idea of being social to a different, slightly lower, level, I have been extremely social over the past two and a half days. The game that I've been playing in this time was none other than Guild Wars, spacifically working towards a title with one of my friends. This time has been social because of skype. I have had conversations (usually over an hour long) with at least five people, some at the same time (in fact, one with all five at once).

My bubble is therefore merely physical, and not at all antisocial even though my parents might think it is. The irony in this is that tomorrow, though I may speak to more people, I probably won't actually engage with them as I have with these five of my guild mates.

Oh well.
