I recently heard about the incredible awesomeness of Day[9]Daily #100 through some friends and decided to check it out (I just jumped on the bandwagon once SC2 came out so it was before my day). What I saw was more then awesome, it actually changed me as a person, the way I see gaming and other gamers, and the way I live my life.

That being said, something this ethereally rare, needs to be shared with those that you are close to. Inspired by Day9 I decided to ask my mom if she would be willing to watch it, I told her that she would enjoy it and he was a really awesome person. Her reaction surprised me, she didn't just like it, she absolutely loved it, she even cried during it.

The next day she asked me if I could set it up on my computer so she could watch it again, I happily agreed of course, and then she told me that she wanted to write an article about it. My mom has a PH.D. in medaphysics and a Masters Degree in religious studies.... and she wants to write an article about Day[9]? oh my god, this is so freaking awesome.

So I bring to you, my fellow nerds, geeks, and sun-challenged individuals, an article written by my mom.... the day[9] fan.

I hope you all enjoy it, I thought something like this should be shared regardless of my relation to her.

Note, please don't get hung up on the first paragraph, it isn't all like that.

I really enjoyed the article I wish I had parents that could take 2 hours of their life to watch anything related to my hobbies.


I especially liked this part:

"While so-called successful parents call their sons and daughters lazy and unmotivated because they just want to game, they too might find themselves schooled. So the next time, you get ready to judge a gamer, think twice, you just might be confusing a nerd with a master."
