Flush it Friday: TRY, TRY, TRY AGAIN

Share:

Those words weren’t necessarily meant as an encouragement to keep going but hey, if that’s what you need, then rock on, dear reader. You got this.

I love trying new things. Whether it’s food, music, or movies, I’m pretty voracious in my appetite for new experiences. But you know what’s almost as good as trying new things? Trying old things again.

And that’s something I’ve been doing a lot lately. I’ve been making decisions to seek out things that I have previously not enjoyed and give them another shot, and lately, these attempts have been wildly successful.

I’ve spent most of my life being generally not a fan of those top-down-click-or-drag-your-mouse-to-move-your-character games. In fact, I really can’t think of any exceptions to that rule. But recently I was thinking about how long it had been since I had played one. Probably 6 years at least. So I decided to try something old/new: I downloaded Diablo III. And dear reader, I am excited to report that I love this game. It has single-handedly re-opened my mind to a genre that I thought was long dead to me. It has convinced me to download the Divinity games and give those a try too (once I’m not working on a senior paper). I’m sure they’ll be a blast.

But these attempts to re-attempt haven’t just been limited to media. I’ve started coming around to avocado. What has long been the green-and-grody has had its status changed to the green-and-guess-it’s-fine. Baby steps.

And speaking of grody, it’s time to flush!
