Blog #2

Hey!

For Blog #2 I picked Herbert Meads Model of role-training.  I believe it to still exist today.  When I was a little girl, my favorite thing to do was to switch roles.  I would make believe that I was someone else, mostly a school teacher or a parent in a family, with my pets being the students or children.  This type of role play took me out of my role as a child and made it so I could finally be the adult and to make the decisions and be in charge.
Nowadays, when wantingto destress and leave my role as a student and take me away from my busy life, playing video games is a way to do so.  It takes me out of the role and puts me in a role as something, in some cases it could be a "rockstar".  Games is a way of fulfilling fantasies of people by becoming and taking on the role of the game you are playing and become, at the end, the "hero"
