Episode 83: Monkey
Saturday, October 15, 2011, 10:58 PM

Its been quite a while since I posted down here.

Firstly, I am taking a break in studies whereby things are getting a little crazy.
Lets just say that I am stuck for the moment.
Need some time and space to think about recent things.

Studies have been alright, just that for now, physics need a little more thought and research.
Its the 'Eureka' feeling that they tend to ask us to achieve, and me, being a student who lives on model answers, never finds out how to think out of the box and hence, fail to experiment around.
So, I decided now to take a short break by playing a game of reaction based platformer.

The game's name is Bit Trip Runner.

I had played horrifying difficult games in my time.

The first time I embarked on the journey to defeat Sephiroth (FFVII) in Kingdom Hearts 2. I am unduly amazed at how difficult he was to beat. Spent around 3 weeks training and fighting and in the end, Tommy beat me to it. So that does not count.
Completing the first Kingdom Hearts is another achievement by the way.

The second one that I played was Demon Souls. Where no matter how good you are playing games, it is hard to survive the tutorial level, well, none will. It gets increasingly harder and harder the more the game progresses and by the shred of sanity I had left, I completed the game.

Coming to Australia, I got this 8-bit game Bit Trip.. It looks innocent enough, until it dawn upon me that upon any blemishes in the play. I have to restart from the beginning.

It really stresses me out.

But for some reason, games like this are the most fun and addictive. Surpassing challenges along the way and feeling the sense of temporal satisfaction... I think that is really getting to me.

Tenacity.
That is what I learnt.
Playing video games, learning my errors and see how I can do better, striving to better or if not perfect myself.
Its like playing a piano, the more I practise, the better I get.

And I so damn miss my piano.

Like I said, I am only human. I get disappointed and such.
I am not perfect. Even though I try my best.

There are a lot of people who are better than me.
I do not deserve their friendship. But I really grateful that they accept me as a friend.

Thats all,
I am just very happy for that.

Cheerio!!!

The strange twist of fate.
