Lifescouts: Video Games

Hello!

Have you guys ever watched/heard of the channel on YouTube "My Drunk Kitchen"? Well Hannah Hart, who is the host, has a specific way of saying hello that is kinda her thing and now whenever I type "Hello!" that's what I say in my head. Thanks Hannah.

This badge is another badge that I feel a lot of people should have and doesn't make me special. And then I start to think there are a lot of people less fortunate than you and realize that this is a #firstworldproblem.

There's also no way to really tell a story about this. I'm not an award winning video game player with the high score on a game at my local arcade, but at least I know I've dabbled in a few video games. While I wasn't the video game obsessed kid that played games immediately upon coming home from school, I was obsessed with Pokemon; and what kid wasn't from my generation. What's really surprising is my mom got pretty into the game too. She's the type of person who takes the "Gotta catch them all" slogan seriously and really tried to catch all the Pokemon. In fact she got really discouraged when she realized that you could only get certain Pokemon in certain games. I only had the gold version. In fact, if I hadn't won an award from my third grade teacher and got to go to a baseball game for free, I never would have won my GameBoy color or the Pokemon gold game. I really miss those days where the only thing I had to worry about was whether or not I could beat Misty the gym leader. I also want to comment on the insanity that is the new Pokemon games. The new Pokemon do not count as real Pokemon to me because they aren't a part of the original 150. Plus, I've heard the new games are kinda bad. But at least that trend lives on for this generation.
