Life is a MMORPG! Live your dream!!


Posts: 2876

Hi everyone!

Guys, this planet has 196 countries. Earth is huge. Capitalism means no matter who you are, just come up with an idea and don't stop working to bring that idea to life in this universe. You will find success, happiness, passion, adventure.

Don't be afraid jump off the beaten path. There is no reason you have to sit behind a screen playing away your life. You can be playing life itself!

Imagine life is Final Fantasy. You have Gil in your pocket, you can visit mog houses along the way-- I'm sure with a little work on craigslist or couchsurfing.com.

Another thing. If you don't like your job. How about you think up something you're good at, and that you would like to do, and then look around the internet, and see if you can figure out a market. If you find a market, than give them a call and introduce yourself, and ask them if you can talk to them about providing them a service that you think can really help them out. They don't ALWAYS say no. Be nice, be professional, know what you're talking about, and don't be afraid to ask them for referrals to other customers.

Now go forward and live the game of life my gamer friends!

Final Fantasy doesn't have looming college debt and a piss poor economy, though.  I heard they thought about making it an addon but the market didn't respond very positively.  :P

I like your gumption though, Luna.

What do you mean the story line is terrible? Real life is hard core! You can die!! You want to be awesome? Want to lvie an epic life of adventure? Here is what you do, go to college and join the military program. become an officer in the military and work your way up. get some classified documents, and then fly to the enemy and sell them. set your self up as a spy, and BOOM. you have an epic life from the movies, and you can realisticly do it! You just have to set a plan, and stick to it.

If I was in a better financial position, I'd hardly ever be online. I'm only here out of boredom.

There are many things I'd much prefer to be doing than gaming or posting on forums. Like skydiving, rockclimbing and abseiling. I'd love to be doing all kinds of extreme sports on a regular basis.

Boredom is something I experience far too often. Unfortunately, spending time online is about the only cure I have for it at the moment, aside from a few other personal interests.

Ah, but I want to have the cheat codes.  :P

I actually spent a year trying to lose enough weight to join the military.  I hurt my foot, though.  That was nearly a year ago, and it is still giving me trouble.  I think a career in the military is out, now.  At least I'm fit now, I suppose - but I'm not losing any futher, since I can't work out with the same intensity anymore.

Getting old sucks balls, Luna.  Like the old fogey I now am, I'm going to tell you to enjoy your youth.  Hold onto that gumption as long as you can.

Now, please excuse me, while I go yell at those damned kids that keep traipsing on my lawn...

Well, the problem is, the doctors tell me there's really nothing they can do.  Surgery is an option - but should I do that, my big toe will start to grow outward and sideways.  I'm like, WTF, that's my only other option??  O_o

I basically have to stay off of it, period.  It's almost been a year now.  Yeah, I'm a little defeated over it.  It pisses me off - but I don't really know what else to do.  It is what it is.

I had been getting up every day at 4am to work out.  I'd also go for a jog at lunch.  Usually do some sort of outside activity after work (hiking / trail running / biking).  I dropped some serious weight.  I loved it.  Now I'm all gimpy and shit.
