Still haven't gave my opinion gender discrimination... i guess i'll get to it eventually, this coming week. Feeling rather disappointed, and broken now. Those who haven't been in much contact with me, won't know that i'm part of the receiving end of a donation drive, to send the SG WCG Champions to Cologne,Germany to take part in the world finals. On winning the SG WCG, i was resigned to fate that there was no way i could go for the world finals. And after hearing someone say its $5K to get there, my fate was pretty much sealed. Then, my dad somehow offered to pay for the whole trip for me. $5K is nuts to go there to FRO. even for the experience. So, my life passed peacefully, till recently.. last week to be exact, i received an email from SCOGA, telling me that I am part of a donation drive to receive money to be funded to go Germany. chock full of hope, i brightened up almost immediately. when i realised that the donations were moving too slowly, its now $6391, $23609 off the target, and i wont be receiving any for the 1st $15k, i gave up. Then today again,the SCOGA called me, telling me that Razer has offered to sponsor me for the expenses of the trip. all i needed to do, was to pay for my ass to be delivered to Germany. and it now only totaled up to $2K! i seriously don't mind paying for it myself, but on telling my dad, he was very adamant that i should not go, quoting studies, national pride, and all that kind of nonsense.
Now... my last chance at realising my teenage ambition of being the best, is right infront of me. if i fail to grasp it, i can no longer blame the stingy singaporean government... but someone else.
Its about time to seriously quit Warcraft for good. if i dont get there.
