Free games
With a lot more free time just dropped on my lap by the end of the semester, I have been enjoying a new love interest. There are countless free games sites on the internet. Any game you could ever imagine is on there. Anything from the more oddball board games you have ever heard of, to old standards like dominoes and of course internet poker. I have been most interested in the simpler games like dominoes, but I have tried my hand at a few of the more lengthy free games such as online monopoly. I don't usually like to play any of the card games except the free games on the bigger sites. Usually the majority of those types of games are played at a price and use real dollars and cents to play. I of course am on a very poor, overworked student's schedule so I can't afford to pay for anything more than I already do. I am satisfied with what I can play now though. I don't think that I am missing out on anything by playing only the free games. I mean I could use the extra money if I won but if I lost it could literally mean paying my rent or not. All of the free games I have been playing are really cool because I always choose the ones where you can chat live with the person you are playing against. I have been trying to get to know all of my opponents as I play them and strike up interesting conversations while kicking their butts. I think that that might be my favorite part of the whole thing because every one of my friends have left town after finals week and those of use left are either working way too much or spending way too much time in summer school. I fit in the third category of those who work enough and have nothing else to do with their time. That is why internet gaming has come to fill in the hole in my life this summer. Now I just hope that when the fall rolls around I can stop playing and start focusing again fairly easily.
