Hello and Welcome

Hello world,

After a week of procrastination I finally created my own personal blog. Mission accomplished. What's next? So many interests to sort through, so many topics to cover. What am I really interested in? Shoes, clothes, make up, dinning out...I'm such a girl. But wait, I also like heavy metal and video games. *gasp*

Video games are the biggest and the baddest entertainment industry in the world. It surpasses the movies and music and continues to grow. What used to be mostly exclusive to young men and teenage boys is now accessible to everyone. There are a ton of different genres and sub genres within those genres too. There is also a rating system which an occasional soccer mom will ignore and a variety of game platforms to choose from.

The beauty about video games is that you can be absolutely anyone in that world. You can devote 20 hours of your life to some quiet farming and courtship in the Harvest Moon series or hours and hours of intense raiding and getting phat lewtz in the MMO giant like World of Warcraft. I still can't decide what I like more.

  1. Yay Julia! Great job! I especially loved the "pregnancy" essay. And of course the reponse to the nay sayers of Rise of the Argonauts!
