i am your teacher

sounds catchy right? yeah, i'm not really your teacher, but i feel like giving my philosophy on video games right now. you might like it, it's quite... interesting, i hope. anyway, so here it goes.

i feel that playing video games shows a lot about who you are and how you deal with difficult situations. since i play halo a lot, i'll use that as my example. hopefully, you know what halo is. i think that you play video games a lot like how you deal with life. i'm sorry if i repeat myself or go back and forth but i'm actually in the middle of a game.

so, when you're playing halo, you start out terrible. everyone knows how many times they need to hit you before they can beat you down, what angles to throw the grenades, when to jump so you can make the far leap, and much more. so you play and play and play, and you learn how to adapt and be the best player possible. then, once you reach a certain rank, you get into a whole new pool of players who are better than you because they've been playing at that certain level longer. therefore, you need to play and play and play more and learn even more skills to beat that new competition. and so on and so on. that's why i feel that if you are good at video games, you know what it takes to reach your goals, because you've done it once in a video game. all you need to do it use that same drive and that same... want to be the best at something attitude.

i need a break.
