Hello~~

12 days since my last post and I still haven't figured out any new topics to write about. And in between the 12 days, I've been through quite a lot. But this post is about my gaming activities only.

So I've been quite active on Steam lately, playing some DOTA 2 and Team Fortress 2 online and collecting items for my characters. I have to say, ever since I start playing DOTA 2,  my whole undertaking of the Defense of The Ancients has become totally different. I mean, the players in DOTA 2 play at a whole another level, I'm talking about ganking, wards, supporting and communication. You miss one warning for or from your teammates, and that may cost you the entire game. You can also analyse your previous games via dotabuff.com like mine right >>here<<. 

Which reminds me, my DOTA 2 invites are still up for grabs, guys. I've still another ten of them and not a single request from anyone right now. So, anytime you're ready guys, or girls, anytime at all.

The Roar of The Hero

Okay so I'm not talking about any hero, frankly, but I'm referring the term "Hero" to the Proton Wira that I currently use to get around in Shah Alam. Especially for tennis. Okay, so, last Friday night, while you people had the usual TGIF celebrations, I headed out for an extra tennis session in UiTM. And a superb session it was... until the Wira I drove wouldn't start, leaving me stranded in the college grounds for hours trying to figure out what's wrong with it. 

My first guess was that the battery ran out and so I called for a few of my friends to help out. Well, I called for my uncle, but it turns out that he was so far away, there's no way he could have come lend me a hand. I mean, Vietnam was just too far away from Shah Alam. Anyway, credits to my buddies Asnawi (@As_Nawie), Nadzrul (@NadzrulKharudin) for their help with the matter. I would've been stranded in UiTM for the next 6 days. We tried replacing the batteries, jump-starting  the car and even pushing it downhill to start the car but efforts went in vain. And so I resorted to calling a mechanic to check out what the problem was and get him to fix it. And guess what...

THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH IT!!!
Yeah, I was mind-blown about it too. I mean, WHAT???!! I had to had problems getting around for NOTHING?? It was totally uncalled for. 
All the mechanic did was tighten some wires connected to the spark plugs and the 6-day sleep ended with a VROOOM!!!! The sweet roar of the Wira was back. I was overjoyed!! TENNIS!!! I'm coming for you!!!
