"I’m grateful for anything that reminds me of what’s possible in this life. Books can do that. Films can do that. Music can do that. School can do that. It’s so easy to allow one day to simply follow into the next, but every once in a while we encounter something that shows us that anything is possible, that dramatic change is possible, that something new can be made, that laughter can be shared."

DOTARDS ASSHOLES.
I'm boreddddddddddddddd.

): God and now I have to pack the mess in my room. ALL THANKS TO THE EXAMS. :@ Worksheets flying all around. damn it.

I feel like going outtttt !
I want to skateeee !
I want my freedom ):

Anyway, something interesting to share about the kids.

"DOTARD ASSHOLES."

Dont get it, why do people take it SO SERIOUSLY in just a, game. Its not like they are participating a competition. =.=. I'm sure the opponent team wasnt.

So that's what happen ytd when I was dota-ing with YanJie, YeeSiang and Gary.

Fight fight fight.
And seriously i dont know what happen.
I saw the chat log,

Okay, childish people quarreling again.
=.=
And guess what.
The opponent team even insult our mothers. WTF ?
Unable to copy the chatlog ): Or you guys will get a chance to see how childish they were la . LOL.

Its something like...
Opponent: "your mother die tonight la ... "
(dk)
(dk)
: "XXXXXXXX (hp no.). Put time put place "
Opponent : "Your mother pussy .... ........"
: Lai lai.....
Opponent : "your mother die. lalala~"
Me: What sia zhuhaodi.
Opponent: Sorry wr kill you so many times, forgive me this kid.
(then my team said to me "Joey, shhhh")
=.=
Anyway i just wanted to say that they are childish and just sit back and watch how kids quarrel.

Basically the whole chat log is all about mother's pussy and mother die, and people typing hp no. asking the opponent to "put time and place" ... ... . Childish enough.

Again, its just, a game.

GAME ADDICTS
So just few minutes ago I thought of game addicts while I was blogging. And seriously, it sent me a shock when I saw this-

(Its super duper long I know. :x)

China
In 2007, it was reported that Xu Yan died in Jinzhou after playing online games persistently for over 15 days during the Lunar New Year holiday.

Later 2007 reports indicated that a 30 year-old male died in Guangzhou after playing video games
continuously for 3 days.

In June 2005, one news agency reported that "Xiao Yi was thirteen when he
threw himself from the top of a twenty-four story tower block in his home town, leaving notes that spoke of his addiction and his hope of being reunited with fellow cyber-players in heaven. The suicide notes were written through the eyes of a gaming character ..."

South Korea

In 2005, Lee Seung Seop visited an Internet cafe and played StarCraft
almost continuously for fifty hours. He went into cardiac arrest, and died at a local hospital. A friend reported: "...he was a game addict. We all knew about it. He couldn't stop himself." About six weeks before his death, his girlfriend, also an avid gamer, broke up with him, and he had been fired from his job for repeated tardiness.

Vietnam

In 2007, police arrested a 13-year-old boy accused of murdering and robbing an 81-year-old woman. A local policeman was quoted as saying that the boy "...confessed that he needed money to play online games and decided to kill and rob..." the victim.

United States

Press reports in November 2005 state that Gregg J. Kleinmark, 24, plead "guilty to two counts of involuntary manslaughter". He "left fraternal twins Drew and BrynKleinmark unattended in a bathtub for 30 minutes, in order to go three rooms away and play on his Game Boy Advance console
while in the mean time, the two ten-months old kids drowned.

Tyrone Spellman, 27, of Philadelphia, was convicted of third-degree murder for killing his 17-month old daughter in a rage over a broken Xbox
. He "killed Alayiahm Turman with at least five blows to the head" that "cracked the toddler's skull several times".

Ohio teen Daniel Petric shot his parents, killing his mother, after they took away his copy of Halo 3
. In a sentencing hearing after the teen was found guilty of aggravated murder, Judge James Burge said "I firmly believe that Daniel Petric had no idea at the time he hatched this plot that if he killed his parents they would be dead forever". On 16 June 2009, Petric was sentenced to 23 years to life.

Canada

Brandon Crisp, 15-year-old, ran away from home on Thanksgiving Monday in 2008 after his parents took away his Xbox 360 due to falling grades and excessive play of Call of Duty 4
. He was last seen alive on a bicycle trail. His body was found weeks later, about 3 miles away, by a party of hunters. An autopsy determined that he died in a fall from a tree."
