My Story – Back to the land of golden opportunity (Part II)
January 9th, 2008 by rromieGood things have to come to an end, and that goes to PeeJayReds too, you just wait! I left my era of ‘official’ education to ‘officially’ entering the workforce. My timing was perfect, I got a job just 1 week before the infamous Annuar Ibrahim ‘poison pill’ budget, that later followed by (chronologically, I don’t mean by effect) the Asian Financial Crisis. I was there without any computer to play games with and with no football periodicals to read with.
As a result of the crisis, I learn the value of saving money, probably much better than my way of spending in Hattrick, when I got enough savings….

Well, I got busy in other ways and get married instead.:)
One things lead to another and later one and another one join me… (sounds like youth academy?) Just imagine what you can achieved without playing a single computer games in 6 years!!
Only after 6 years of working I finally joined an organization that is kindly to allowed me to surf the net in the office computer…. I have been using the search engine for a while searching for “PBM, Play by mail, etc” but I think it was in www.lowyat.net is that where one fined (BORED) day I discovered…. “HATTRICK”
