POKÉMON GO!!!

WHAT ELSE DID YOU THINK I WAS GOING TO WRITE ABOUT THIS WEEK??? OF COURSE THE BIGGEST THING TO HIT THE STREETS... LITERALLY!!! LOL. MY STORY STARTED ALMOST 20 YEARS AGO WHEN POKEMON RED AND BLUE CAME OUT. I WAS TEAM RED AND WITH CHARIZARD :) I HAD THE OTHER ONES GOLD AND SILVER AND THE REST TOO, BUT IT ALL STARTED WITH THE ORIGINAL. THEN POKEMON CARDS CAME IN AND I WAS ALL OVER THAT AS WELL. MORE CHARIZARDS AND FOILS AND DECKS. I WAS EVEN  IN AN ACTUAL POKEMON CARD GAME LEAGUE.THAT GAVE OUT REAL GYM BADGES LOL. NOW ALMOST 20 YEARS LATER POKEMON GO!!! THE ONLY DIFFERENCE FROM THEN AND NOW IS THAT IM 20 YEARS OLDER... I SERIOUSLY CANT BELIEVE THAT ITS BEEN THAT LONG... I HEARD ABOUT IT OVER A YEAR AGO, AND ITS FINALLY HERE. THERES NO WAY YOU HAVNT HEARD OF POKEMON GO... EVEN MY PARENTS HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT. UNLESS YOUVE BEEN HIDING UNDER A ROCK THEN YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW... BUT I HIGHLY DOUBT THAT. ANYWAYS... THE ORIGINAL RELEASE WAS TO USA, AUSTRALIA, AND NEW ZEALAND. RECENTLY GERMANY WAS ADDED... BUT WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF THE WORLD??? WHAT ABOUT CANADA AND LONDON AND HONG KONG? WELL... THEY HAVE TO HOLD OFF ON THE OTHER RELEASES DUE TO JUST THE SHEER VOLUME OF INTEREST AND SERVER ISSUES. THERES NO WAY THAT CANADIANS WERE GOING TO SIT BACK AND NOT PLAY THIS... WE ALWAYS WANT WHAT WE CANT HAVE AND POKEMON GO FOR MANY OF US WAS LIFE BACK WHEN WE WERE YOUNG. SO NOT MATTER WHAT, WE WILL FIND A WAY TO PLAY IT. SHORTLY AFTER... WAYS WERE FOUND LOL. I FINALLY JOINED, EVEN AFTER ALL THE RUMOURS ABOUT BANNING ACCOUNTS AND ALL. MY THOUGHT IS I RATHER GET TO PLAY NOW AND THEN SEE WHAT HAPPENS, THEN TO NOT PLAY AT ALL. IM TRUELY DEDICATED TO THE GAME HAHA. POKEMON MEANT SO MUCH, JUST BEING ABLE TO PLAY THE NEW VERSION MAKES IT ALL THAT MUCH BETTER. EVERYONE BACK THEN WAS ABOUT 8-14 I WOULD SAY AND NOW EVERYONE IS LIKE IN THEIR LATE 20S HAHA. THERES SOME REAL CHANGES TO THE GAME THE MAIN ONE IS THE AUGMENTED REALITY. THATS COOL USING THE REAL WORLD AND CAMERA TO SEE WHATS NOT ACTUALLY THERE. BEING ABLE TO TAKE PICTURES IS EVEN BETTER AND LOTS OF TIMES ITS QUITE A NOVELTY. ANOTHER BIG CHANGE AND ADDITION IS HATCHING THE EGGS. YOU HAVE TO WALK EITHER 2KM, 5KM, OR 10KM... I DONT WALK MUCH ANYMORE AND IT JUST TAKES SO LONG. YOU ALSO CANT GO ON THE TREADMILL OR DRIVE FOR IT TO COUNT. IT ACTUALLY MEASURES AND GPS'S YOU, SO NO CHEATING FOR NOW HAHA. ITS A GREAT THING COMPARED TO THE PAST WHERE YOU CAN JUST SIT INDOORS AND PLAY THE GAME. NOW YOU ACTUALLY HAVE TO GO OUTSIDE TO HATCH AND GET STUFF. SETTING LURES ATTRACTS THE POKEMON AND THERE ARE QUITE A FEW AREAS THAT YOU CAN JUST LURE UP AND EVERYONE CAN SEE IT. METROTOWN IS AN EASY EXAMPLE. THERS 3 LURES ALL NEXT TO EACH OTHER AND SOMEONE KEEPS LURING IT. YOU SHOULD SEE HOW MANY PPL ARE THERE... IVE GONE THE PAST 2 NIGHTS TO FARM AND HOLY CRAP... THERS A GOOD 50... 80... OR MORE PEOPLE THERE. THAT AREA HAS NEVER BEEN SO BUSY WITH 28 YEAR OLDS HAHA. MOSTLY GUYS BUT LOTS OF GIRLS AS WELL. AT THOSE POPULAR LURES IN RICHMOND YOU CAN FIND A BUNCH OF CHINESE KIDS WITH REALLY NICE CARS... FRIENDS SAW LAMBOS AND BEAMERS AND BENZS JUST PLAYING POKEMON... ITS LIKE A CAR MEET BUT FOR POKEMON AND I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED THAT THEY ARE THE ONES WITH THE LURE HAHA. THERE WAS EVEN A MEME JUST POINTING OUT HOW FUNNY THIS IS:

THATS JUST TOO FUNNY... AND ACTUALLY TRUE. THIS WHOLE REALITY THING MAKES YOU JUST LOOK AT YOUR SCREEN SO YOU DONT REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR SURROUNDINGS... MY FRIEND SAW SOMEONE WALK INTO A TELEPHONE POLE LOL THERES ALSO STORIES OF PEOPLE GETTING INTO CAR CRASHES AND STUFF LIKE THAT. THATS JUST GOING TOO FAR LOL. OMG SO MANY RANDOM THOUGHTS LOL. WALKING AROUND ANYWHERE YOU CAN TELL WHOS PLAYING POKEMON!!! PEOPLE RANDOMLY STOPPING AND TURNING AROUND OR GOING ANOTHER WAY, PEOPLE JUST LOOKING AT THEIR PHONES, AND PEOPLE IN GROUPS JUST STANDING AROUND... HAHA. PEOPLE WERE ANTISOCIAL TO BEGIN WITH, BUT WITH THIS... PEOPLE REALLY AINT GOING TO TALK TO EACH OTHER HAHA. ME AND MY BUDDIES ACTUALLY JUST CAME BACK FROM A FARMING SESSION AND WE BUILT UP OUR LEVELS HAHA. WE WERE WALKING AROUND AND CHASING POKEMON... AND WE ALL IN OUR LATE 20S OR MORE HAHA. WELL... ONE OF US WAS MID 20S BUT YOU GET THE POINT. THIS GAME HAS BROUGHT SO MANY PEOPLE TOGETHER, WE EVEN HAVE A CHAT WITH LIKE 15 PEOPLE WHO JUST LOVE TO PLAY THE GAME AND SHARE INFORMATION AND STORIES LOL. PEOPLE ARE ASKING RANDOM PEOPLE IF THEY ARE PLAYING POKEMON GO OR ASKING WHERES THIS AND THAT. SOME GUY JUST STOPPED HIS CAR INFRONT OF US WHEN WE WERE STANDING AROUND AND SAID "POKEMON GO?" AND WE JUST SAID YUP. GUY GETS OUT AND LOOKS AROUND WITH US. OR TODAY IN THE MALL WE JUST ALL TELLING OTHER PEOPLE WHERE THINGS ARE. SOME GUY JUST FOLLOWED US BUT WE NEVER FOUND THAT STUPID WEEZING... WE WALKED QUITE FAR ACTUALLY HAHA. THIS GAME HAS BEEN DOWNLOADED MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF TIMES AND IS MAKING SOMETHING LIKE $1.6 MILLION DOLLARS A DAY... WELL NOT SURPRISINGS SINCE MY BUDDY SPENT A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS ON IT ALREADY. IM NOT GOING TO PAY FOR IT. IF THEY REALLY BAN AND RESTART PEOPLE OR WHATEVER I DONT MIND BECAUSE AT LEAST ITS NOTHING LOST FOR ME... EXCEPT THE TIME I PUT IN ALREADY HAHA. ALL I KNOW IS MY DATA IS TAKING A BIG HIT PLAYING THIS BUT HEY... YOU GOTTA SACRIFICE TO BE A POKEMON MASTER RIGHT??? LOL. THERES SO MUCH MORE THAT CAN BE TALKED ABOUT THIS, AND I JUST HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU GET THE GAME IF YOU DONT ALREADY HAVE IT AND PLAY. IF YOU ARE WAITING FOR THE OFFICIAL RELEASE IN YOUR COUNTRY I STILL SAY GET IT NOW AND WHO KNOWS WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN AFTER, BECAUSE ITS THAT GOOD AND YOU NEED TO PLAY IT NOW!!! LOL :) I DONT CARE WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE GAME OR IF IM A NERD OR WHATEVER, BUT IM GONNA PLAY IT, ALONG WITH MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE HAHA. OH OH OH AND SO STUPID!!! SOME PEOPLE ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE A POKESTOP NEARBY OR A GYM NEARBY AND WHEN I SAY NEARBY I MEAN YOU CAN REACH IT FROM HOME. THERES 1 OF THEM AT THE CORNER OF MY PLACE AND I WENT ALL OVER MY APARTMENT BUT CANT REACH IT. I WENT ALL OVER MY FLOOR AND I CANT REACH IT. I WENT DOWNSTAIRS AND IN THE CORNER OF THE HALL BETWEEN INSIDE AND OUTSIDE I CAN REACH IT!!! SO I WAS STANDING THERE IN THE CORNER FOR A WHILE BECAUSE SOMEONE LURED IT HAHA. THEN MY FRIEND SHOWS THAT THERES A PLACE WITH 3 LURES AND A GYM AND ITS A BUILDING COMPLEX... AND THATS HOW PEOPLE FARM AND GAIN SO EASILY... AND THEY CAN BE ON DATA TOO!!! JUST NOT FAIR... *SIGH... OUR OFFICE SHOULD BE A GYM BUT ITS NOT. THE GYMS ABOUT A BLOCK AWAY... SO WE HAVE BEEN TAKING QUITE A FEW "WALKING BREAKS" OH AND ALSO CAUSE THERES 3 POKESTOPS AROUND TOO HAHA. MORE POKEMON ADVENTURES TO COME :)

YOU KNOW THE DRILL FOR THE REST. WORK AND CHILL. NOTHING NEW. ANOTHER WEEK ANOTHER WEEK
