Reality TV is my life.

Sad i know. I had a debate about the in school with my teacher - He hates BB and says it ruins peoples lives! - But what people dont understand is the Reality TV is a addiction! And i was trying to tell him that.
He said and i quote -'Reality TV is rubbish it ruins people's lives and future, Its Sad, You should stop watchin reality tv.'
I told him that He Smokes - Smokeing is also an addiction and can also damage your health in a major way but i wudnt go up to sumone and tll them to stop smokeing!

I love reailty Tv and if you take me on you take on reailty Tv aswell. My life organises around Reailty Tv.

Im an Addict and i love it!

That is a point but these shows do have a purpose and that is to let us into the psychology of how people communicate in confined spaces for a length of time. And because I like to learn about how people work together etc, I found it quite intriguing to learn about other people. It is also amusing, gives us something to gossip about and inspires us in a way... a way that makes us think how lucky we are to have freedom (I'd love to go into BB but think of the difficulties everyone went through)... I think reality Tv affects us because it makes us want to try things new, like learn how people work therefore learn about peoples' senstitivy and cofidence issues. And we can see from reality TV shows how people should and shouldn't be treated. I think these shows are just generally addictive and hilarious usually as well!

I enjoy reality tv but my life does not revolve around it. I am a BB addict and I imagine my family are glad it is over but have to say I have missed a few so I can go out with my family etc.... that will always come first

yeh thats what i think i tried to say but didn't word it too good

if reality t.v can make ppl cancel holidays and fail exams then i think it would be better without it. well for those ppl anyway.

well I revised for all my exams whilst on msn, bb forum, at school, watching telly, listening to music and occasionally in silence.... and I still got really good grades (except for drama but I can't be bothered with the theory side).. it can be done hehe but I seriously wouldn't recommend it!!! Just give yourself time every night for some quiet revision and you'll ace those exams...

lmao I made 4 different timetables for my school exams and I followed each one for less than a day!! Just revise what ya want, for an amount of time which doesn't tire you out streniously! Ma stupid biology teacher was giving us revision tips using his psychology skills to explain how the mind works in revision and whatever... like we care lol?

I'm addicted to BB and when it's on it's the only thing that I want to watch and when I had my GCSE's I did not do muh revision and when it was fight night I stayed up for ages to watch it and I had an exam first thing in the morning.

It's best I don't watch too much live feed because I usually cannot drag myself away from it lol.

It's so addictive, even when it's horribly cringey I can't look away.

I love reality tv but
i think it really effects the people who go in badly!
i also think the standard of television shows has dropped because of them but i still love them trash tv at its best
