PLAYING VIDEO GAMES
Back in college, my typical day went like this. I’d wake up early, but not too early. Maybe around 9:30. Then I’d take the train to school and attend 2 or maybe 3 classes. It depended on what day it was. Sometimes, on the way home from school, I’d stop by a temporary staffing agency to see if they had any work for me. If they did, I fit it in between classes and everything else. If not, I went home and played video games for a while. I’d make a few calls to my friends, saw how they were doing or if they were doing anything later. We’d make plans and then I’d start on my homework. Whenever I got done, I’d eat dinner and watch TV for a while. I know it wasn’t the most exciting life, but I enjoyed it for the most part. I had more free time on my hands than I did in high school and much more than I would once I graduated and went out into the real world. I still lived with my parents, which wasn’t the greatest thing in the world, but I didn’t have to pay for rent or groceries or anything like that. I saved up a lot of money. Video games didn’t grow on trees after all.
