unawareness
The University of South Australia has carried out a nationwide survey, which was the largest Australian study into community's attitudes towards abuse in relationships.
This survey shows firstly that approximately a quarter to almost half of the respondents don't recognize it's the sign of abuse to try to control what their parners wear, to scroll through their text messages and to spend days giving them silent treatment. Secondly, the survey reveals that for people under the age of 18, males are three times more likely than females to think that pressuring for sex is not abusive. Over one-third of young people think that men and women are equally the perpetrators of abuse. However, the survey thirdly shows that women are victims in 85 - 95 per cent of abuse cases and men in 5 - 15 per cent of cases.
All points are from Herald Sun, Monday, July 23rd, 2007.

scratching ur achy ass?
We meant to meet at 11am at McDonals near Flinders street, but Ken and Chen had got something to do in school, so Wing and I waited 45 minutes for them in McDonalds, also finished two big mac meals. That was easy.:p By the way, Wing looked pretty tired and it seemed he had hit the sack very later last night. But the fact is, he was no later than me last night. I dun know the reason. lol!
Then we took some time to go the MSAC(Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre). Unfortunately, basketball courts there were not available from 9am to 3pm because of some ****in' program. The time we got there was half past one or something. So we headed back to city and picked up Chen's high school classmates and we went to the uni together. It was really a bad day today. I hurt my left hand on the court and the other off. Afterwards, we made our way to Melbourne Central to watch movies and had some food beforehand. Thanks to Ken's coupons, I bought two meals at the price of $10 in Hungry Jacks! It was hard to decide what to see, Ken wanted to watch Transformers, and Wing, Blades of glory. Well, had we chosen to watch either, we would have to wait for two or three hours, which would have been too stupid. So we chose Shrek 3rd at last. Still got an hour to go, so we wandered within Melbourne Central after buying the tickets - CountryRoad, Foot Locker...
The movie turned out to be good, hilarious. Ken said it was better than two, but I couldn't recall any detail of two. So I was just a good listener:). Hey what are we gonna do? They wanted to watch games at crown but I don't have an age-proof stuff(haven't applied for my L yet). Hence, we made our way to my house, then got two decks of cards and started playing. To tell the truth, I rarely played cards. So they taught me different kinds of Poker, which was prevalent in casinos as well as a Hong Kong card game. Although it was my first time to have played these games, it turned out that I earned the most chips. And both Ken and Wing had loans from me, lol!
Yo yo! I'm a folder, not a scruncher! I don't know what you are, but yeah, I'm what I'm saying.(Don't take it seriously man, you know what I'm saying if you are smart enough)

indulgence
What have I been up to these days? I'm not even clear enough. It seems that I've been in a dream, getting around Shaitan, Icicle and Argent, having encountered cactus, melon, camel, lizard, shrub, clam, crab, drinking contaminated water, eating sea snail meat, resting in havens and outposts distributed around the world, been devoting myself to a lot of quests aiming at becoming a crusader, in the meantime, setting off to the sea for challenges without knowing i needed to refuel and needed more powerful cannons (although I dun have a pistol, I've got a bigger boy, kuhanust!). The people I visit most frequently are teleporters. I still remember clearly levelling with Toinks outside the Icicle city after getting stuck on the beach near the Abandon Mine Haven. I still remember I didn't distribute my points carefully and didn't have an idea how to have an illusion slash despite the fact that I had been meaning to be a crusader and the life of melee was tough.
That's really no good. That's addiction; that's indulgence, that's suicide. I need a resurrection. From where to where? Death to life? Dunno, I wish I had been a herbalist.
"Ah huh! New gear looks cool! But that ain't enough"
"Yo, we need to form a party of five"
