Addicted to YouTube

For three consecutive nights, I've been addicted to YouTube to the point of sleeping at the wee hours of the morning. This is too bad I think because I'm beginning to feel the stress due to lack of sleep. It all started when I came across the video clip of NAIA-3. I felt joy when I saw the inside of that mothballed terminal. I was a having a virtual tour of the facility with the MIA Assistant General Manager as the tour guide. The NAIA-3 though still not at par with Changi Airport in Singapore or even that of Kuala Lumpur's, but I may say that it is something to be proud of especially when you start comparing it with our old and existing NAIA-1. Finally, we will be using a world-class international airport pretty soon. By estimate, the full operation of NAIA-3 will commence on March 2009, that is, if there would be no structural defect that might be discovered along the way. At present, NAIA-3 is operational only for domestic use of Cebu Pacific, PAL express, and some other budget airlines. A series of other related video clips are also available in YouTube which I also watched. Furthermore, every night, I would be looking for some interesting video clips until I came across the Spanish-American War, subsequently showing the atrocities committed by the Americans towards Filipinos during the time that Spain was ceding the Philippines to US. From history to Philippine Railways such as PNR, MRT, LRT to Manila day-to-day living to Big Brother of UK, US, Australia, Slovenia, I tuned myself with YouTube every night. But this time, I said to myself that it's time to stop it, and start sleeping early. It is becoming an addiction for me to watch clips in YouTube. Is there an available drug to battle this out? Can anyone tell me please? :-) But I still wish that copper-based Internet would soon be a thing of the past, and that Fiber Optics would be the norm. If that happens, I will be even more addicted to YouTube which will be fu*&%$#@* fast by then.
