Reality Checked Me

On Friday, i had a sudden reality check again and really felt that i was getting too old and cannot keep up with the youngsters. This time it was about a game, DotA (Defend of the Ancients). I played this game with my colleague. He showed me around the game, which character to choose, what to buy, where to go etc. So after a few minutes, i found myself to lost because i don't really know what to do.

So i decided to do some read up like what and how i did when i started to play Warcraft. Found tactics and guides i did but understand them i could not. All those terms used were beyond my comprehension. Perhaps its because im still relatively new to the game.

Try as i may but because i have not keep with the game and therefore many terms used were really alien to me. Trying to just understand 1 guide (a general one at that) was beyond what my tired brain could take after another crazy day at the office.

Sighz, though my age don't show it but i feel really old and hopeless like those always reported by really old people. If my PC was still working perhaps i could play more of the game to get myself updated again. I was pretty good when i played Warcraft but now with work and a kid, not to mention a dead PC which cut me off my supply of games :(

Hope that i can get enough funds to get a new PC come the New Year. According to those astrological books my luck seems to quite OK next lunar new year so i better make the most of it!

Wish me luck
