Secret War Journal[17 June 2013]
First and foremost, I would like thank all those who remembered my birthday.
It is so bright outside. I am jealous.

I am so glad that I was allowed to take leave for the week which my birthday falls on.

As I had mentioned many times already, June is not a happy month for me (mostly). I am not going to say out why here. Perhaps I had mentioned it some years back but I have no intention to repeat it. Sorry.

Although it is the holiday season now, I was informed of my leave a little late. Not many people could take leave today. I would be a little bit heartless if I said I do not feel a little bit sad. Then again, it could be just me being more emotional and sensitive during this period of time. Not to mention that my anger is almost left unchecked during this period. While I try to be calm, I need a month to berserk for a while so as to maintain my sanity for the next one year.

After all, the trend had been that the world turns against me during the month of June. 

My armour is like paper, do not kill me please.
A lot of bad stuff had happened this month, not surprisingly. I am not planning to write those events down either (no point making everyone depressed over stuff to which we have no control over, huh?) and I think it is better to forget such things even occurred in the first place. :P

Best Friend's Home is Home
What better than being able to visit my best friend's house after so long? I miss the times when I could stayover for a week at Johnston's house. Come the present, I am now in army and he is University. Even if he is free, most of the time, I am too preoccupied with work to be able to set aside days to stayover. Thus, I was actually glad that I managed to get this time to do some house visit.

There, I spent the whole morning at the dining table just chatting with him. It really brings back memories of the past where we simply sat in the canteen after school, talking until the early evening.

As the saying goes, time passes when you are having fun. Before long, it is lunch time. Emelia had woken up and joined us for lunch. After lunch, we went up to the computer room, as so to not disturb Emelia who was studying at the dining table. (After a moment, she started to comment that we were avoiding her, which is of course not true. Hahas!)

As unexpected as it was, we ended up playing Dragon Nest in the computer room. One reason was because the controllers for Xbox and Wii ran out of battery so we could not play them. To make things interesting and refreshing for us, we tried each other's characters in the game.

Admittedly, it was my first time trying out the Warrior class in the game. Boy, the playing style for warrior is really different. It was contrast to my archer attacking from far away, away from enemy fire. The first few runs as a warrior was rather chaotic. I found that, as a warrior, you would spam the left mouse button quite badly. Hmm....

Another class I got to try was the Kali class. Similar to the warrior in the sense that she is also a melee class character, using her requires more hit-and-run tactics.

Tarots
Before I end off this post, I also would like to thank the following people for gifting me these presents> :)
