Entry 1 - Jessica's Online Journal
More Like Me: Bits and PiecesENTRY 1
Sunday, 9.55PM, Living room – looking at my girlfriend playing games while she talks to her online friends through her headset. (The headset which she newly bought online. And it was ridiculously overpriced)
Hi, my name is Jessica. I don’t actually know what I’m doing right now. I’m not really the type of person who will write a diary or journal and vent everything. Yet here I am. This was actually suggested by my assistant. She said that writing can heal. So here goes.
I know I’m not the only one out there. I don’t know much about gaming, to be honest. I don’t even know how to even pronounce some of the games. There was a game called Skyrim. Is it “SKY-rim?” or “SKEE-rim?” Who the hell knows.
Needless to say, my girlfriend hobby of playing video games has left me with quite a bit of time on my hands. Especially because, it seems most games make you lose all sense of time. No seriously.

She doesn’t really play every night but mostly she would play during the weekend. Weekend her means when I have completely nothing to do.

So I would just sit on the sofa in the living room and force myself to watch her play. And ended up I would fall asleep as well. Either way, I would still sleep.
Her suggestions have been oh-so-helpful, as I'm sure you can guess. Some of Sooyoung’s brilliant suggestions were "you could fold the laundry", "You could wash the dishes", and "You can make me ramen?". That last one was met with "Turn off your stupid game and make your own disgusting ramen!", I definitely blame hormones for that one.
So, I've had to come up with some better things to do while she rots her brain running around a fake country that's being t
