Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I get the feeling you're looking at this as a matter of absolutes to some extent. You're very career and school-driven, and it sounds like that, for you, is a major part of your identity and your drive in life.

But a lot of people do things for school or for a living that aren't their main passion in life. For example, I know someone who works in sales. But if you talked to her and asked her who is is, she'd probably be more likely to describe herself as an artist than a salesperson. But she works hard at her job and takes some pride in it, even though it will never inspire her or give her joy like her art does. I'm working towards a degree and a career that I think I'll really like, but I wouldn't call it my identity.

I'm not really a gamer, myself, but I've never gotten the impression that you can only be a gamer if you're a stereotypical, basement-dwelling gamer. Shoot, a lot of the guys in my program, which requires a good amount of work and dedication, love to talk about the gaming they do in their spare time.

I definitely understand what you're saying and I agree with many of the points you made. Someone can be a fan of video games without being the stereotypical basement-dweller. Case in point: myself. However, I don't think gaming really compares to your friend's job in sales. She may dislike it, and perhaps it isn't her main focus in life, but she is accomplishing work and making money to support herself, something that playing video games generally does not accomplish, with the exception of game testing and professional gaming.

No, my point was that she carries on a job, and does a good job at it, while still being more passionate about her art, which she doesn't do to earn money anymore. Just like a gamer can care about games and still have non-gaming careers, go to school, etc., and just like I love writing even though it doesn't play into my career goals.
