A few years ago, during Winter break from college, I finally got Fallout 3. I’d been dying to play it for months and I got my chance. When it was time to go back to school, I decided to stay home and keep playing Fallout instead. One of my classmates kept calling me asking why I wasn’t at school. I told him I was sick, while I was in my room getting stoned and playing Fallout all day. The next day I decided that exploring the gray ruins of the DC wasteland was more important than my associates degree in filmmaking and dropped out!

When my older sister and I stayed with our mom, we stayed in a cabin that was run by the environment. We needed the sun for electricity. We needed the rain to take a shower. At the time, we were both addicted to Black Ops. Both of us agreed that we’d rather have sunny days and play Black Ops than get to shower.

I had a bright red scar on my nose for a year that’s starting to fade. I called it my geek scar. I got it because I was in bed, balancing my laptop precariously on my knees. If I left it on the bed the fan wouldn’t vent properly. It fell. The full weight of the computer hit me in the face via the edge of the screen.

So far in my quest to complete Skyrim with every class in the next couple days I’ve: listened to my entire Wu-Tang Clan collection (almost everything they’ve done) four times, eaten two and a half family packs of Doritos, a 16-inch pizza, and five cans of Monster.
