couple of hours a night... i have a life a job and a girlfriend

im guessing this homework is to do with statistics? in which case you should ask for age brackets as well. oh and if your asking on a gaming forum i suggest you pick a subject othet than gaming as any statistics on gaming from this community will be kinda meaningless.. ie 9/10 gamers on the guru play games a lot
well duh thats a no brainer.

if the homework isnt to do with statistics ignore me completely

Total time just on the computer on an average week... this one is harder to figure out.

Wake up at 7:00.
Leave for school at 7:13 (the time spent between those is spent getting ready.)
Computer science for about 50 min mondays and 1h30m tuesdays and thursdays. I am counting that since I do just what I do at home there.
Back from school at ~3:00.
Turn on computer at 3:01.
Snack gathering from 3:01-3:10.
3:10-7:00 is my first giant chunk on weekdays.
7:00-7:15 is dinner.
7:15-11:30(I'm being generous with this number... I did say minimal workload.) is homework, or if I don't have much, more gaming.

That amounts to roughly 47 hours... just on the weekdays... that I'm on the computer. Now for the weekends.

I just remembered that Friday usually goes a bit differently... so lets fix that up right now.

Add 3 more hours for friday... so 50 hours during the week (I feel stupid now... 50/5=10 hours a day would have been so much easier to day.)

Average Saturday wake-up time - 10:00am.
10:05-1:30 first session.
1:30-1:40 making lunch.
1:40-4:30(guess) second session.
4:30-4:35 getting snacks.
4:35-7:30 third session.
7:30-7:50 dinner.
7:50-2:30am(being generous) fourth and final session.

Average Sunday wake-up time - 11:00am
11:05-2:00 first session.
2:00-2:20 lunch.
2:20-4:30 second session.
4:30-4:40 getting snacks.
4:40-7:30 third session.
7:30-7:50 dinner.
7:50-8:30 figuring out/doing homework that can't be done on computer.
8:30-12:30(being generous) finishing up homework that I've been neglecting to do until the last minute... but 80% of my attention is devoted to computer... so I'll do .8*4 for that one.

Time for math!

My calculations got 26.96 hours on the weekend. I'll round up to 27 hours on the weekend.

27+50 = 77 weekly.

If you want to know about summer computer use... Just do Saturday*7-16.
The 16 is a rough estimate of time spent at a lake/river/pool each week.

Just as a review, so you don't have to dig around for your figures:

35 Gaming hours weekly.
77 Computer hours weekly.

154 Hours thinking/talking/dreaming of things relating to computers in any way. (That is generously giving 2 hours a day to talk/think/dream about other things.)

I'm cool!

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAA You're cool? lol Nice maths. I usually spend about 20 hours/week behind my pc, so deviding hours by weeks gives us something like 20*60/60*24*7= 0,11904769104769104769104... seconds. or no wait.... hours... or was it minutes... Minutes, defenately. But what did I calculate again? Uhh...
