AN EGAMER MOM CONFESSION

AN EGAMER MOM CONFESSION
=P

Let me just share you my experience of being a mother gamer. Yes, I am and I know I'm not the only one. Cool huh!?

I want to start this with a little introduction.

I am a mother now for 1 year and 2 months already (well, still counting) of a baby girl, named "AVA". Well, computer gaming isn't really new to me. I started playing computer games since I was in elementary, particularly in grade 4. My father taught me this. Even my mother, is a gamer mom also.

Though, right now that they are older, they chose to play LEFT FOR DEAD instead. and NO to TETRIS and PACMAN.

Anyway, being a gamer mom isn't really as easy as 1 to 10. First, you need to take care of your child and second, you are battling with your gaming addiction. Especially that the game I am playing now needs a lot of time for leveling up. Well, that's the essence of an online game. "Takes a lot of time to level up" (",)

Just last few weeks, i refrain playing RAN ONLINE for some reasons. I was hacked. Bad thing is that, I did not retrieved my character which I spend a lot of money, time and effort but to think of the good side, now that I am not playing ran online. I can spend much more time with my daughter. Can bond with her more often and can see her development now.

BUT.. QUITTERS NEVER WIN as they say. who said that I quitted my ONLINE GAME life? Never did I.

Now, I am addicted to ZX ONLINE. Yes, you read it right. I started playing it just last April 1, with the help of GM VRael. An eGames Community Game Master.

You wonder how in the world did I make it playing with a 1 year old with me?

It is possible.

If ever you encounter a gamer in your party that makes a lot of excuses in leveling up; like,

*Wait po ah! CR lng!. (My baby actually is crying)
*AFK lng po ko. Wait lang (emergency! my baby is bored)
*Kain lang po ko. Saglit lang! (my baby is hungry)
*aw. . LAG (my baby is taking my place infront of the computer)

and last but not the least;

if you notice my character typing stuffs like this;

*+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*11111111111111111122222-- -+++++--+
*asdfasjffa jsdffnasdf asdfwertfjwaf

then, that's my baby!..

Now, think twice if your partymate AFK a lot and so reasonable.

Maybe that's me.

..aw, LAG!....... .. .......................................
