New Opportunities With My New System

27. September 2009

I am in nursing school and have finally found something that is both relaxing and fun for me in my down time. I have to study and memorize so much, that when I try to relax and have fun, my mind wanders back to the vocabulary and the procedures I am currently studying. I had heard [...]

No Longer Afraid of Gaming

I never really thought I’d be good with video game titles. When I saw the newest in handheld console, one glance had me convinced that I’d be horrible with it. It looked so complicated, and I was certain it would be hard to figure out how to play each title or use the features that [...]

Now that summer is here, I have more time to do the things I enjoy, one of which is playing my Nintendo dsi. I know that most of my friends have wondered if I even really like it, because I didn’t play much during the school year. The fact is, I like it too much. [...]

I’m one of those moms who has always tried to make sure that the activities my kids engage in are three-fold in nature: good for them, beneficial to the family, and help meet my goals of having them grow up into responsible and healthy adults.

of the titles I love until I got this one? I don’t know if it’s the size, the lack of pressure to beat whoever I am playing because of the distance between us, or the fact that I have more fun with it. Whatever it is, I am improving, and I have gotten better than [...]

When I was looking for something to add to my social life, I never would have thought that something like a game system would fit my needs. I was telling a friend about how I wanted to become more social, and she suggested that I look into one of the newer game consoles, like the [...]

So, my friends and I all decided to buy Nintendo DSI. We had this idea about having a club, and running competitions between anyone who wanted to join. The great thing about it, though, is that it’s all done online. We made our own chat room and created a unique way to challenge others to [...]

The one thing I have missed while I was away this summer was my console. I had only had it for about two months when I had to leave for a month of summer camp, so it was still fairly new to me. I was already hooked on it though. Not in the sense of [...]

I recently decided to buy Nintendo DSI. I became interested in this console after my teenagers started playing it. One night, my oldest was out of the house, and I decided to check it out. I knew that my brother’s kids had one too, so I called him and we played a game together. We [...]

I am 58 years old, and I have become a true gamer, at least as much of one that a man of my age can expect to be. My grandson visited me last summer and brought along a hand held game system. He taught me how to use it, and I really liked it. A [...]
