    While most kids were outside playing in the mud and dirt, I was sitting inside on a couch, comfortable, clean, and happy to do so. As a child, I detested the idea of getting my clothes dirty. I loved to be able to maintain the pristine cleanliness of my outfit, so I often refused to play outside. Instead, I resorted to a crimson red Gameboy SP with a blazing LED screen, almost too big for my hands, for my childhood action. I’d live out intense fantasies in that three inch square. I used to play…

    In his novel A Farewell to Arms, Ernest Hemingway tells the story of an American ex-lieutenant Frederick Henry looking back on his life and relationship with Catherine Barkley. The lovers first meet outside a villa-turned-hospital and almost immediately begin playing, as writer Ernest Lockridge wrote, a “game of cat-and-mouse” with one another (Hemingway 18, Lockridge 72). Lockridge argued that because of this game, it appears as if Hemingway wrote Frederick to be an ignorant, naive lover, and…
