I love playing games. I particularly like playing MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) because it’s fun and you interact with other players as well. You can become who you want to become, be strong, get rich, and popular. It all depends on how you decide to play the game. So lately I’ve been having the same problem of being burnt-out at work. I work at home and yet it seems that I’ve nothing else to do besides work. What’s bad about it is that I get lots of it that resting alone proves to be a tough task because it won’t always be guilt-free.

For the past few months I thought that getting lots of work is the reason why I’ve been having this problem. It turned out that it isn’t. Which takes us back to my love for games.

I used to be a gamer. An avid one. Now I’m totally off of it. Work takes up most of my time right now, besides sleeping and eating. Just a few weeks ago I’ve started playing games again. Sims 2, Age of Empires 3, and the most recent one is Cabal Online. Playing these games made me realize the reason why I was so depressed with how things are turning out right now. And that reason is, because I don’t level up anymore in real life. Life is a Game indeed. You work hard, you get better opportunities. You learn more skills, you become stronger, or wiser, and then you get better opportunities. It isn’t important that I get popular or I get promoted at work or I get better salary. Yeah those are fun to have but what I really want is to gain more knowledge. To actually level up. I used to study in-between work. Learn more skills. I enjoy all those. Now I don’t have time to do them anymore, or If I do get free time, I’d use it to rest. So that’s why I feel like I haven’t been moving forward.

If my life must be lived the way I play a game, then so be it. I am so turning my life into the biggest game I’ve ever played!
