During high school days, One time I went to school to study for coming exams. I cannot study at home and school has no distraction and I know a quiet place to study. After study for awhile I felt bored. Because I think I covered everything and do not know what to study anymore.

So I decided to take a walk, relax awhile, and come back to study. School is very quiet during study break . The school is not very empty, there are also other students studying in school too. So I thought maybe I go to my class, I can find my classmate. Yea, there are there.

They saw me, so I went in. 1 of them is my good friend. and his friend has a PSP and is playing. I have nothing to do, and I feel like playing. So I asked my friend

Joyce: Hmm, your friend finish study?
Good Friend: No, he think he is screwed.
Joyce: No, do not give up so soon. Exam is tomorrow, U should ask him study.

Keke, he went to study because I asked him to . And I took his psp and play. It was all soccer games and no more. So I have no choice. Keke, I even picked the highest difficulty ahaha.

The game become quite frustrating. The computer is like playing cheat. Like running faster than me, and I feel the computer bribed my goalkeeper so he can score every time he shoot. No wonder it is the highest difficulty. The highest difficulty= cheating difficulty. And whenever he score 1 point. I restart the whole game.

Then my good friend and his friend notice something wrong with me.

Friend's Friend: Wow, your classmate is so heat up.
Good Friend: Joyce, are you okay?
Joyce: I am fine.
Good Friend: You don't look so good.
Friend's Friend: You have been playing for so long, you should study too .
Joyce: No, I don't need to study. I am not you.
Friend's Friend: Wow, very bull-like.(Translated from chinese, so it sounds a little bit wierd.) 哇, 好牛.
Good Friend: Yea, she is smart girl. Don't worry about her.
Friend's Friend: I don't think so, she is going to fail her exams if she keep on playing.
Joyce: *Ignore* *Carry on play*
Friend's Friend: I am not going to care. None of my business.
Joyce: I will study, after I score 1 point.

Other people is Study stress, play game relax.
I am opposite, Study relax, play game stress.

After awhile for 1 time I finally managed to went to second half with a clean score.

Joyce: Yea!!
Good Friend: Did you score?
Joyce: No, but I shut down opponent from scoring and went to second half.
Friend's Friend: .....
Good Friend: .....
Joyce: What?
Friend's Friend: Your friend is not suitable to play game.
Joyce: I will score 1 goal in 1 minute. Then I am going to study.

Serious, I really scored in 1 minute during the second half. But my players all become so sad while the opponent is celebrating. I am so angry. After playing for so long I realised the game is bugged. I have wasted around 1 hour of precious study time to play 1 stupid useless game.

I raged quit and feel like throwing the PSP down the floor. Not mine anyway keke. But before I do it my good friend took it away from me. I calmed myself. And went to study.

Serious, if I see that psp again I will destroy it. 1 hour of study time can be differnce of B+ and A?

After study we go outside and eat together, when walking there we tried to talk, but it is awkward because just now I think I was rude to my friend's friend when I play game. It went something like this

Friend's Friend: I thought you say u are going score 1 point before quitting. Not 0-0.
Joyce: Serious, I score 1 point before quitting.
Friend's Friend: Hard to believe.
Good Friend: I believe you
Joyce: Screw you, your expression is so fake.
Good Friend:

I must have leave a very bad impression on my good friend's friend.

I will never forget this day. Because I become a jerk for playing 1 stupid useless game. But that is long ago, so do not think I am a jerk now. I have improved since. And I will always take notice of this day.

She is referring to association football, which was nicknamed as soccer and I heard the canada calls it soccer also on wikipedia? Also that game does sound like it sucks.

Chinese is good language. You are from China
I find in English hard to describe emotion. But in Chinese you can make a lifeless article into full of life and feeling. And usually 4 letters, or 8 letters, or even a single letter can describe alot of things. You are from China, you should understand what I am trying to say..

It's also called soccer in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, it's a British word however.

I've never been a fan of football games but I enjoy watching the sport.
