Anyway, not trying to tell you how to live your life (I know I'd want to stay), but I'm just curious given your view on the afterlife of amateur progaming. | ||

It still sounds like you have matured quite a bit and found more benefit to being in korea than SC  | ||

I mean, you describe the possible outcome of most progamers as ending up at some 7-11 outlet... but do you really see yourself going back to korea later, assuming you have a sufficient grasp of the language? I can understand why you'd want to stay in korea (for the experience), but it sounds like you're not really going to be doing anything productive for the next few years... it'll change you for the better, yes, but at the same time those years may be no better spent than when playing starcraft. You can play poker and work out just as easily in the US, but you could be getting your degree too. Anyway, not trying to tell you how to live your life (I know I'd want to stay), but I'm just curious given your view on the afterlife of amateur progaming. enjoying life is productive in my opinion. i am staying here simply because right now i like korea a lot better than the USA. and anyways, as i said i will be studying the language because i really want to become fluent, and that IS productive and WILL help me now and in the future if i ever go back after college. I'm only 19...I have time. edit: and saving up a large amount of money that can be invested and used in several ways to do something is very productive (yeah even though I could do that in the USA, if i like it here better why not do it here?) | ||

edit: really bad at the quote thingy. Cresfy, just because other people are forced to take time off, doesn't mean we shouldn't worry about potentially 'waste'ing what time we have :D | ||
