Let me start off by saying that this is my first blog post, and I am in no way an intelligent writer. To anyone who takes the time to read this, thank you. I'll try not to have too many grammatical errors.
I've noticed over the years that life has a sneaky way of creeping up on me. Money that I thought I had yesterday is suddenly gone. I'll open my fridge to fix myself dinner and I'll suddenly realize that there is no food in my fridge. Little things like that.
Sometimes the stress would get so bad that I'd have a sort of, "enlightened week". I'd sit around pretending I knew how to meditate, squeeze stress balls until the little plastic beads fell out, and sometimes I'd just sit and beat things to bloody pulps.
In God of War, of course.
The other day I went by a local game store and told the clerk to find me a game that would help relieve stress. What I got was
Animal Crossing.
I hope anyone who's played this gem can understand where I'm coming from when I say that not only did it change my life, it also completely mellowed me out. No more flipping my desk when I lost a LAN session of Quake. No more throwing kittens out of my windows to satiate my rage over dieing on the last level of Raiden II.
The simple tasks of fishing, hunting bugs, expanding my house, playing Super Mario Brothers, and helping out my Animal neighbors completely changed my life.
I recommend that you pick it up as soon as possible, if you have not already done so. It's only been out for seven or so years, so it's understandable.
Also, dying
I just proved you wrong. Now excuse me while I go get a box of tissues.
