in that first day were very sick with problems from not taking their medicine for a year after Katrina.Over

       I quit the game，WOW，a couple of years ago.My life has improved dramatically.I went from being

single  to being engaged，I received a second promotion in my career，and life couldn’t be better.

But even   then，I still had an urge to play and I thought about it every day.

      About a month ago，I decided to start playing again.My friends still played and claimed that it’s

better than before.So I figured I’d give it a shot，and so far I’ve managed my time well.But the funny

thing is that I’m not enjoying it as much as I thought I would.That sense of accomplishment I used to

have back then is gone.I figured out why...

      My enjoyment in the game came from progression.I loved accomplishing quests，hitting 60，and

then beating the bosses with 40 other people.Some nights sucked (糟透了)，when nothing was done.

But other nights，when we beat the hell out of a main boss，it felt incredible.I was actually progressing

and improving in something.It may not have been real life，but it was there，on my screen，and it was

visible for all to see.

     But now I’ve actually pursued tangible goals，and realized the sense of accomplishment in WOW

is worthless.I don’t get excited when the list of epic drops from a boss is sent to me from my friends.I

haven’t even been interested in getting a flying mount，or PVP gear.I just don’t really care about them

.I actually don’t care about anything that happens in the game，except for some quests.1 out of every 10

quests you do has an enjoyable story that makes it more interesting.But even so，they are what you can

get out of a book，or a good single player game.

       Even though WOW is enjoyable in some aspects，it’s extremely boring in others.Now to me，above

all，it’s not worth my time to go through it.
