Video games = stress reliever

My extensive video game collection that helps me relieve stress!
Are you ever totally swamped with homework? Or are even having problems with family, friends, and for you lucky ones boyfriend/girlfriends? I know I sure do! I know I'm only 15 but right now my life is like a - insert video game reference -! One of my teachers is just asking for too much in too little time, me constantly having to study for my permit test (which I passed on my first try!!), and basketball (which I will sometimes play Varsity) my life is getting pretty dang stressful! So what do I do when my life is going off of the deep end? I play an easy, but challenging (if that makes any sense), video game!

The stress reliever of video games is a great one. For a few hours I get to completely forget about all of the papers that are due, the tests that have to be taken, and even basketball and I'm able to just enjoy my video game! Of course when I am stressed and need relief I don't want to play a very challenging and stupid game. That just makes it all not even worth it. What I play is something simple, relaxing, and of course it has to have a good soundtrack. What totally fits this description? Mario, Donkey Kong, and any sort of fighting game. What's a better way to get rid of your stress than beating people up . . . not in real life of course. Anyways, if you ever get really stressed and need a break just take up a simple video game! I would recommend not playing an RPG just because they can get really frustrating! I mean that's what you are trying to get away from the first place right?

Hope you have a great Thanksgiving! Use Black Friday to its fullest and GO GET SOME VIDEO GAMES!
