What distracts you from origami? Like maybe there is a complex model you've been wanting to fold, but other things take up your time.

For me, it's work, graduate school, working on my home, and a new video game that came out here in the US: Grand Theft Auto IV. I'm finding it hard to put down the controller and pick up the paper!

Right now I'm playing Elite Beat Agents on Nintendo DS. After a whole day of non stop gameplay, I finally managed to finish Jumpin' Jack Flash on Sweatin' mode. It's...so...addictive...my neck...hurts...

Pretty much just school. Not even video games have been in my schedule this year... I used to game at least two hours a day.

And whenever the weather is nice here (in other words, when its stops raining 300 days out of the year) I take advantage when I can.

Not sleeping more than 2 hours a night, my time is divided in the small hours between folding or, on clear nights, stargazing.
I have so much time, I'm patiently working my way through the entire NGC catalogue of galaxies visible from my location with my ETX-80 telescope.
I found Elite Beat Agents addictive too.

HAHAHA yeah this forum keeps me from folding but also helps fold so I guess it is an even trade. I just got crisis core so that takes up a huge chunk of time.... soooooo good by the way! Um other than that watching tv/movies, cooking, cleaning my house, spending time with daughter/husband, taking care of my zillion pets, and lastly work. Oh, and writing, I'm working to be a novelist so I spend a good amount of time writing although you could say it's my writing that gets interrupted by origami and not the other way around Wink

I thought you said you were 13 years old. Do your parents know you play Grand Theft Auto?? Shame on you I'm 14 and I've played and completed every single GTA game released for PS2 except GTA3, even though I clearly shouldn't. Touche'
