It's been almost three months since I have last smoked a cigarette. (Official as of April 8.) When it comes to finally kicking a habit that you know is bad for you but you continually do it all it deals with is will power. First and foremost though, one must want to actually want the change. This is entirely important, because if you don't then you are only fooling yourself and you'll end up back in your same habits.

Once you've decided you want change, make the change. The first couple of weeks are the roughest, and if you can make it through these then you can do it. But it isn't hard to resort back to your old ways if you aren't careful. One must realize that it takes will power at this stage to not go back. After three months of not smoking I don't find everyday things to bother me and want to smoke, but drinking is the huge issue. This is when I think to myself how long and well I've done so far, and if that doesn't help I think of the reasons why I wanted to stop.

As time caries on these urges will be die down faster and faster until they don't exist anymore. (In some cases though, they may never go away completely but because rather small instead -- as if to be gone.) Overall, just remember that you want the change -- it's up to you if you succeed, as it is your life and you control everything and have no one else to blame but yourself if you fail.

The 2005-2006 NCAA Basketball season is officially over and the Florida Gators won it all. Some things of interest throughout the tournament and season are that Florida started the season hot and finished hot as well, they deserved to win. The Big East was by far the hardest conference of the year and got the most bids into the big dance, yet not one team made it to the Final Four. The ACC, who many announcers go on and on about, didn't even have a team make it to the Elite 8. The SEC, who was thought to be on a down year had two teams make the Final Four. Finally, Billy Packer still needs to quit or just shut up and sit there, he's got to be one of the worst announcers ever -- not to mention ignorant. When a guy can't even read off a piece of paper correctly, perhaps you should find another profession. (Referring to his foul up on the announcement of the brackets when he started reading off the wrong bracket.)

I've also finally updated the DVD List again, adding 34 new movies. Hopefully from now on I shall update it on a daily/every other day basis - this also depends on how frequently I get new movies.
