I AM the Chinese Emperor

>> Very recently, i conquered China via Sango XI, and became the Emperor.

It took about a week and a half. The map of China (rotated 45 degrees clock-wise) in the picture below shows the half way mark, where all the powers converged towards the middle to fight it out (i am the red colour).


Three lessons learned from my conquest:

1) To have absolutely everything, means absolutely nothing. The more i have, the more empty i feel. Maybe this is exactly how the Emperors felt - that's why they needed more and more women, and more and more women to satisfy the emptiness brought upon by all the previous women.

2) There is no one to share the joys of my conquest with. In my case, no one else that i know plays this game. Did Chinese Emperors share their joys of conquests with other Chinese Emperors?

3) Subordinates are impersonal. When one begins to hold supreme power, his previous relationships will begin to become supremely isolated. I could check my subordinate stats and abilities, and order them to do things for me. But i could not chat to them.. on a personal level. That's why i deleted the game.

In conclusion, games can sometimes bring more than learning of strategy and enjoyment.

Ground Breaking Discovery

Ever since i came back from China, there has been a niggling little cripple in my left foot. I could not figure out why, at first, but recently i came to the understanding.

In Shanghai, i occasionally tested my strength, by carrying a 106kg guy, namely Daniel Wong from my cell group. I enjoyed doing it because it 1) tested my strength, 2) provides exercise purposes, plus 3) carrying friends on my back is what i like to do (but only works with certain people).

I remember once running up the stairs while carrying him on my back. And that was when i probably did my foot. NOW, why foot? You ask. The easy explanation is that my leg muscles are so strong, that the force crumples all the way down to my foot - just like for some people, their hands and arms are so strong that when they land on a hand stand position, the force crumples all the way into the ground, and the concrete underneath cracks (can you imagine??)

Global Energy Savers

Two days ago, an Indian mid-20s man knocked at my door, and said politely: "Hi I'm here to change your current light bulbs into energy saving light bulbs for free. May i change them..."

I said: "Sorry, no thanks."
He asked me for a drink of water. I gave him the water, then he politely left. A very polite Indian man.

...

A few moments later, it hit me hard: I SHOULD HAVE ASKED HIM TO CHANGE ALL THE BROKEN LIGHT BULBS IN THE HOUSE!! ARGS!

So effectively he would have come to fix my lights, for free. [ Smile Smile ]

Make-up Applications

After being exposed to what make-up can do for a girl, i now must look longer and harder.



Thanks,
