the beginning.

I'm not quite sure when video games entered my life, but it was definitely long enough ago that anyone putting the effort in would be somewhat decent. I never really thought about it either, until the other night when it was brought to my attention by my loving boyfriend Joe, that I really really suck at Super Mario World.
It all started out fun and games. I picked up my DS for a level or two before bed, when the sound of poor Mario's deaths caught joe's attention.
"my god, you suck at Mario." he said after watching me die on the second level for about the fifth time.
"Shut up, I've never been that great at Mario." I responded just as I fell to my death once again.
"My God, you're like the worst! How can you not be good at Mario? My little sister is better at Mario then you!"
At this point Joe took control of the DS to show me how it's done.
"Hey, butthead, watch this, this is how to NOT die..."
But thats when it kind of hit me: How can I ever get better at gaming if I can't even master a classic game like Super Mario World? And this blog was born.

The point of this blog is to chronicle my journey from novice gamer to expert gamer. from noob to teh pwnzorz. Any game will do, I will play through it, then blog it. Of course there will have to be a time line, but I guess that will have to depend on what game I decide to tackle at the time. The first game I will play through, obviously enough, will be Super Mario World. I will beat a world a week, and report on my success, or possible failure. Hopefully once I am done that, I will have some suggestions on the next game to get into for my quest to expertise.
