ust me. We do not know how our Wi-fi andlove life can relate to each other. What happens is that the issue would always be: How can I evolve? And when is it good to upgrade? Mirel Amaro, a future nurse said “Be wary and aware that we each have money to do good to each other and everyone else.” This is when behaving like a “newb” in digital play helps us out in the long day that is Thursday before snacking it out Saturday through Jueves. We know how to understand bi-lingual people and we can always be good.

We need to understand that we have the right to live but choose to mumbo-jumbo through most of it. The same goes when studying the gamer lab and its proccess towards what is today important Gameboy spinoffs. True to Nintendo, originallity can have its good and it merits. We have surveyed the landscape of photography and gaming to understand the issue of realistic portrayal that has done good. “I think harm has been done and it is true to us affacionados that gaming has evolved and so has its graphics. Today, at almost no cost our sofware and machines are advancing,” said Mirel. True.

When it goes home the PS3 and Xbox mets its fame and deadline. Nintendo’s true virtue saw it conquer the Wii, the Wii U and several advertisements against its view on gaming namely Call of Duty. Those games did not introduce flavor but gore, action, and malcontentment. This industry has evolved from several advertisements in 3D gaming to downloadable capabilities on our phones. We can view this a a step forward just like NASA did to the moon. Suspended in the air is a capsule of Wi-fi enabled software at megabytes and gigabytes that can be full-on the best entertaiment without harm to your eyes! A digital scope of gaming shows you malcontentment with war and several strategies involved for conquering the devastating and merciful landscape of today in this industry.

A couple of new strategies in marketing have allowed very few people to grasp the most powerful technological aspect of running around in socks by our own

neighbor, swinging back and forth out excitement for Mario or Splatoon or maybe Donkey Kong. New ventures of currency have allowed our most quiet aspects of life to show good temperament, mental health, and capability with an adjustment to what is today a gift card. No longer do we wait at Gamestop for a line that will hold up a crowd from venturing into gaming. “It is more accesible and playable since we started using Wi-fi. The speeds are good and so is the memory of the download that we do in our system,” Mirel said.

Adventures in gaming gives us a scope of hope to rejuvenize our interest in game design. A vast world like the one Link travels in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild [pictured on the right] can be seen in a small capacity. It fits in your thumb and that is how good memory bytes are and can hold. Behold the virtual landscape of the same bytes and how amazing it is to show it.. We can truly get on with our wandering through life because we instinctively know how to continue. I often wonder and catch myself doing the same with collectibles and card games.

Featuring the most expensive and low-income friendly upgrade is the Nintendo Switch. With this adventure and expense we hope you graduate positively and with the same character to do good. We have amazing Nintendo quarters to visit and a store to qualify for.

Now online; Nintendo has the web capabilities that enhances consumer’s entertainment and the visual concepts of what is invovled in their games. Full digital media outcomes are expected as a network grows in friendliness. Harrassment is no longer a problem.

We do know how to work. Check out the framework please and spread the love.

“It is more accesible and playable since we started using Wi-fi.”

As a recognized auhtor with more than five best sellers on Amazon, he also said "One of my goals is to inspire everyone to read a little more."

His distinct take on the San Antonios Spurs power foward who is the best. Lamarcus Alridge, who was drafted to the Portland Traiblazers in 2015 has been amazing!

In this book you will learn about the life, legacy and willpower of the most dominant NBA pro-forward since Tim Duncan. Aldridge is elegantly rising to be the 1 in the power foward position amongst the NBA in this era.

Clayton Geoffreys agrees.

do? t o N n w i n o te H An Interview with Yariana Torres Ariaga from GameStop Yarianna is an employee at the Gamestop in Poinciana, FL. Play it Fun magazine has chosen her for an interview on Nintendo. She let us know a bit of facts about herself and Nintendo.

Editor: Tell me a little about yourself.

Yariana: name Yariana Torres Ariaga, I am Latina and I come from Caguas, Puerto Rico.

I am 25 years old so 1993 was my era. Here at GameStop I am a Nintendo Switch Specialist, I am bilingual in Spanish and English and I interpret sign-language.

Editor: Very cool.

Yariana: I have been interpreting sign language for almost two years now and I have taught myself by reading books, seeing videos, and communicating with the customer here. I used to work in various places as well and what got me into sign language is that anywhere I work in Poinciana I end up meeting a customer that has the problem.

Editor: Fulfilling the need that is awesome.

Me, I need instruction manual to get along with it.

Yariana: Hahaha. I understand more speak like every time you learn a new language for the simple fact that I don’t have as much practice as somebody plus since I read so much is already stuck into my memory. A lot of customers, even when they meet me in the streets, they talk to me. I like that when people come in here they feel welcomed. Rather if it is English, Spanish or sign-language. I want them to not feel trapped you know in an environment where they think that there is a language barrier. So here I am one of the uppity people and I am also the one that likes to be on top of everything. I like to call myself a product

The Cake Mix With Ben The Trucker By: Jo Amaro Play It Fun Magazine has it’s way with cakes. We enjoy our staff meetings with delicious crumbles and toasted coffee. In this issue we invested in a truckload of swag in the kitchen. Ben Amaro, who has love for his students, is a trucker and designs cake on the week when the flavor adds to it. It is a complement to bake with much gesture to his education as a trucker. He enjoys it and wants often wants to share. This magazine publication respects that and we have decided to interview Ben the Trucker for a good purpose: sharing a snack for the perfect moment.

This is Ben the Trucker’s recipe for success with Betty Crocker cake and chocolate icing.

Editor: What are we making today?

Ben: Today, we are mixing Betty Crocker Super Moist White Cake Mix and adding the Betty Crocker Chocolate Icing after baking.

Editor: What is this snack for?

Ben: To eat.

Editor: How long does it take?

Ben: About ½ an hour to bake and 10 minutes to prepare, Editor: What do you do first? What are the ingredients?

Ben: I use a blender to fill a 1 ¼ cups of water, adding 2-3 eggs, a ¼ cup of olive oil and the cake mix. Then I blend it. After blending, I pour the mix in a pan and put it in a preheated oven for 30-35 minutes at 325 degrees. Once I am done I take it out I let it cool out for at least 30 minutes. Last, I add Betty Crocker Chocolate icing for flavor.

Editor: Why do you like Betty Crocker?

Ben: I like the taste. There are 18 grams of sugar in the mix and it is sweet. I love it.

Editor: Last and final question: What makes you a good cook?

Ben: My mom does. Thank you for the interview about my basic baking techniques and flavor.
