Granite Island seascape for Water H2O Thursday

 


I spent the last four months playing an online game and became too addicted to it, spending over 40k AUD in the process. Joel tried several interventions with me. Finally, his persistence paid off when he encouraged me to take this trip. I now realize that what I was dealing with was essentially an addiction.

I’ve always been there for Joel, and now it feels great to know I have someone to count on. I'm finally back to my photography hobby and blogging again. You can't get rid of me that easily, lol.

  4. I used to be addicted to a computer game, would stay up all night playing it! This is a lovely combination of the rocks and waves.
