I've been recently listening to this podcast called 2 Chimps on a Davenport. Here's the background.
When I first got my xbox, I was looking around online for some walk through on how to complete the Veteran missions for CoD 4. I stumbled upon this website called nextgenwalkthroughs.com, where these two guys, Jon and Dan, (they go by the names of Beer Baron and ExplicitD) do these video walk throughs with voice overs. At first I watched their videos because they just talk a whole load of bullshit during the voice overs, mainly because they're drunk to the heavens when they're talking. It was a while before I realized something a bit startling. That website? Playing video games and making video walkthroughs? That's their job. That's what they're doing for a living! Sure they don't make much money out of it, (they admit that they do get some money through donations and advertising on their website)(and they also have part time jobs) but the most important thing to them is that they're doing what they love for a living. And no, its not two geeky, fat white guys. Its two decently good looking guys and Dan has this SUPER HOT girlfriend. hahaha.
What's interested me most was the fact that they're willing to spend their lives doing just that because it's what they WANT to do. And everyone around them supports them with that dream. Maybe it's time we all find out what we really want to do. Ok. I lie. Most people already know.
Do I? I need to shed these preconceived notions I have about life and how I must live it.
Cheers.
