I cannot comprehend how anyone could be bored from mapping. I've been mapping day and night, during virtually all my waking hours, and I am still obsessed. Perhaps it means that I am a true addict.

I even skip meals for mapping. The only reason I stop mapping is for going to work. Sometimes I go without eating the whole day and map until my brows sweat.

And, true to Tracer Bullet's words, boredom is a state of mind that one has some control over.

Three hours! You really have a short attention span. I typically spend six to eight hours straight for each mapping session (without even a bathroom break). I've been doing this for two months already, and I am still going strong.

I must be a sick man. Maybe I should take something.

Yeah, I know. I got my fiance very mad a few weeks ago because I've spent all night mapping and had her sleep alone. I've made a deal with myself that I would not map when she's around.

And sometimes I wouldn't even turn on my computer because I was afraid that I would start a mapping frenzy and lose all control. I feel like an alcoholic sometimes (or rather mapaholic).

But I think this is true for some of us because we naturally have very high level of serotonin in our brains. It got me through medical school with the same intensity. I used to be able to study for more than twelve hours straight, reading and memorizing even during meal time. I did it for two years without a hiatus. Needless to say, I did quite well in medical school and graduated top of my class.

But now there's no more studying, so I direct my obsession to mapping and gaming.
