Who Else Finds These Message Boards Addictive?!

I do!

The spare time I used to spend on facebook or playing computer games to relax is now spent here. What a fun way to improve one's Spanish!

I especially love the "Take one, leave one" thread. Reading through the thread is like doing the best vocabulary flashcards ever invented!

Yes, I am afraid my crops on Cityville are withering away since I joined this group.

Yes, the message boards almost always lead me to deviate from my current set of tasks. Muy divertido ! LOL I only wish my brain could hold more information.

However.... ahem... One needs to do the actual lessons as well, and not just chat all day on the message boards.

I was doing well when I used the message boards as a reward after doing a lesson here or in my textbook. But now I just want to play on the boards all the time!

I am especially addicted to finding and downloading pictures to accompany my posts.

I certainly do as well. My time in between lessons and other work seems to be occupied here, and most enjoyably so.

I do too! Yo tambien. ¿Pero cómo se dice "addicting" en español?

It should be addictive in English too. - ian-hill, Feb 16, 2011
The verb " to addict" is not an English one I have ever seen or heard. - ian-hill, Feb 16, 2011
You are right Ian. "Addicting is commonly heard (at least in the US), but it is incorrect grammar. I will change the title of the thread. - happyquilter, Feb 16, 2011
