OMG met my first brat on9 after a nong nong hiatus

Yesterday at PCBunk.

After work before church, I walked into PCBunk to get my PPCs which I collect. When I was queuing up, suddenly, a woman and a plump girl started fighting. They exchanged blows and words. The woman appeared to be the mother asking the daughter to go home straight away as she felt that the girl was playing games for too long. The mother tried to take away the bag from the daughter (assuming it contains money to play more hours of games) while the daughter retaliated saying that the women recognised a wrong person.

The staff wearing an Asiasoft T-shirt just brushed the mother aside as he tried to get into the booth. The PCBunk salesgirl told the mother to leave and settle their score outside. Then she came back to serve me.

I quickly bought my things and left. Then I saw a group of ah lians looking at the scene as if in support of the daughter.

When i reached my bus stop, I reflected:
- Are children getting out of hand already?
- Are they living an alternative lifestyle until they knock out of reality?
- Or is it mere addiction?
- Are they losing respect for their parents to the point the parents become ATMs while their friends become parents?

Seriously, Asiasoft and PCBunk should have guidance counsellors on duty to handle these cases as their staff appeared incompetent or ignorant of the greater social issues. The staff appeared to be either ignorant that some kids can stay away from home for a few days just play their online games at 24hr cafes or their addiction have gone to the point of no return (waste money all the time). Some kids do resort to violence just to play the games they want. We live in the where kids are now devoid of feelings of responsibilities and they must get what they want.

For me and the group of adult gamers, we play when we are free and can stop abruptly when we are needed else where. Some of us are "noob gamers" but we use the game as a socialising tool to expand our social circle.

I dunno wat to say about these chewren

They can turn everything into monsters

2 Cool to be trueeeee

Went out yesterday after my trip down to IMH for pre-reg opening ceremony.

Reached SUNTEC @ about 1300hrs to see nong nong queue. Chewren are so eng and the four of us were like the very few big buffaloes around who publicly dare to show out affection for the online game.

Went to 3rd floor to verify our gaming passports to get free spin at gachapon. Got a water bottle, the biatch got a poster AND BENGZ GOT A PLUSHIE KEYCHAIN. He selected a mushmom plushie. Vonz kena missed.... Later when viral joined us @ 1700hrs, he got a poster but poor ting got a miss.

Had to change used PPCs to play games or pay $1 a try.

Later we queued nong nong to play all 7 stations to get the card chopped as to redeem a mushmon hat. Got some meso coupons for winning games which could be used to exchange for other items. 99% of our time was spent queue and yakking in the queue - good to have company.

Saw the squishy cake which was selected to be the BD cake for maple. Looks extrememly noob - could have decorated it myself. Even the squishy colour was imba and very pigmented.

The longest queue are with the bowman and the mind master. The staff are unlikely service trained - dunno how to smile one.

Swopped my retrieved meso coupons for some notepads which hopefully can be used during my CIP rotation.



Didn't get the 15 meso wiz and bowman pads - not my type. The big hard covers are functional for my own notes and the small mage one can be used to send notes to others.

Threw in 1 used PPC just for fun for the lucky draw - but I saw one kid who had 300 +++ PPCs with him. If he's a solo user, it means his cash slot confirm no enuff one.

Ladda went to kenny rogers' (a first for me), met viral and ting. Then later went to see Nancy Drew. I'm a person with very weird taste - I like the young martha stewart that was potrayed. As usual, the biatch realises that all the Nancy drew stories will have chloroform and a secret passage way involved.

Zomg!!! DCJ Maple I WANNNNN

Oooo Super naïve med. student

Zzzz . This med student on Maple a bit jian bian - rather inconsiderate to the other healthcare professionals....

I wonder how come Pharmacists and Nurses know so much about the docs but the reverse is not quite right? A bit the imba lehz. Skarly they scold us kaypoh. Knowing a bit more is a benefit to us all but know the correct thing. Be a man/woman!

Here is the link to the Pharmacists' equivalent to the SMC

And here is the link to the Nurses' equivalent - better learn more before typing or mouthing stuff =p

Gamers love sports / MSEA event

Went for the Gamers Love Sports event

Met up with D and her gang from Delphinus because the rest of my guildmembers from Aquila are not morning cox..... Met them at 0730 @ Kallang MRt Station. For the first time I saw soooo many kids in the trains @ such a weee hour. I think the parents would be so happy if their kids were to wake up so early and willingly during normal school days (but not to Maple hor!).

We walk across the roads to People's Association and there already started to queue long long =.=.





They did not have any XL t-shirts !!! PS most gamers do not have sporty physiques hor. Either quite plump or thin one. I think there were less than 2k people who turned out as they had extra shirts to give away - took 2 's' extra - one for my sis and one for Y. We took only right at the end when there was no longer a queue - so no more 'L' size. ^^ - Our guild's yeow quee cannot get the shirt liaoz.

Party grounds:






The DJ from 93.3 FM didn't know NUS in Mandarin is known as "大国" - she ended up with" 新加坡的NUS" =.= <--- this coming from someone who failed Mandarin multiple times versus a Chinese DJ... She said that in conjunction with the drummers NUS performing a Chinese drum piece.

I think the DJ may have hots for Mr Teo Ser Luck (didn't know it was pronunced as "lok") when she said "Wow! It's not everyday that we get to see Mr Teo dressed out like that" ...=.=

During warm out workout, some of us got so sianz - may be we don't take exercise so seriously. The warm up music was bland - AuditionSEA music preferred - but then some people will end up pressing imaginary arrow keys and spacebar =p. The warm up people were disarrayed - the beats were too fast for beginners and sit warmers.











Run lohhhhh



I dunno hor, but do you think Milk put on a bit of weight?

Walk walk:



See the new Ferris wheel:



I think the people who made the poster either logic failed or maths failed:



Repackaged xin zhui (Hokkien)



排长龙 to get goody bag coupon and lucky draw tix:



The plan was this:
Everyone gets T-shirt
Everyone do warm up
Everyone go walk walk
Everyone who went walk walk will get coupon to redeem goody bag
Everyone finish walk walk and get goody bag
Everyone go play various games - shoot hoops, sumo wrestling, chatey, etc
Everyone go lucky draw - didn't win any freaking thing
Everyone go get PAssion Card - I managed to get mine to be mailed to me, the rest of the gang had to go down to CSC....







Collect bags (we were the last ones to arrive - more than enough bags anyway):



So many people won prizes except us.... One girl won the Lenovo Desktop (complete with speakers), and people started clapping but some were not palms togather but rather fist to palm =p.

Tok about angry people

Maple is very time-consuming to play - that's why I play only limited hours a week if not I'll need to check into IMH and placed on possibly naloxone.

So any error in the server will cause something like this:

Aiyoh, this things have gotten so serious to a point where a med journal focusing on Cyberpsychology has been formed.

Video game addiction in children and teenagers in Taiwan.
Chiu SI, Lee JZ, Huang DH.
R&D Division, Jen-Teh Junior College of Nursing, Medicine, and Management, Taiwan, Republic of China. shaoi.chiu@msa.hinet.net

Video game addiction in children and teenagers in Taiwan is associated with levels of animosity, social skills, and academic achievement. This study suggests that video game addiction can be statistically predicted on measures of hostility, and a group with high video game addiction has more hostility than others. Both gender and video game addiction are negatively associated with academic achievement. Family function, sensation seeking, gender, and boredom have statistically positive relationships with levels of social skills. Current models of video game addiction do not seem to fit the findings of this study
