I'm Back!

Well I got back yesterday and the holiday was great! ...I suppose I'd best get back to work now :P

I read the essay on Escapism and Video Gaming and it's quite useful in the sense that it has given me an idea of how I could structure mine. Some of the issues he has covered are quite good and the way he has split up his sections will is handy. He has also used some good references that I can also look into. Unfortunately, I can't help but feel like he has missed out huge chunks of information in areas where they should blatently be (e.g addiction in gaming doesn't even exist in the essay). He has also assumed quite alot to almost get the conclusion he wanted to write. It makes me wonder if he has missed out information on purpose so that the essay is written to give a pre-determined conclusion...

I don't want to write my essay in this fashion. I am hoping that through my findings I will have a positive conclusion to how escapism affects people, but if my findings blatently oppose this, I am not going to 'alter' them so that I get the conclusion I want.
