6. Knowledge from unlikely sources.

So I started playing a game called SCUM thats R175 on steam, the game is a survival game but to the extreme. Me and my friends call it a hyper-survival game, the reason therefore is because the game utilizes a system called the “complex system” which uses your wits to navigate the human body to survive like in real life. The “complex system” adds a metabolism that can influence how you play the game, for example you can try to find things throughout the map to help with certain bodily injuries and sicknesses, my character itself has an extremely high sodium level which untreated can cause heart stroke, stomach cancer and so forth. 

The reason why I would recommend the game to anyone is for the “complex system” mainly, the reason being that in high school and university you learn biology in a way that most would find boring. Games make things usually interesting so the fact that you have to regulate your bodily needs give learning human anatomy and biology a lot more interesting that sitting inside a classroom for hours on end and then doing tests on it. I though do caution you to find a professional opinion on the game and its “complex system” otherwise you might learn wrong things about biology. The survival aspect of the game further enhances the intense survival skills you would need to keep your character from dying either from external forces or internal forces.

5. Morphed

Back in my high school days I would only wear a jean and a t-shirt since fashion regarding clothes didn’t bother me, which it still doesn’t, but I have realized the impact your fashion sense have on people. I remember in high school I had really gotten cold on a winter day, I started wearing a scarf which then prompted people to then start calling me out that I am gay which I’m not. Since what I looked like didn't necessarily bother me, being constantly called out gay when you are a heterosexual is kind of frustrating and bothersome. I later on got used to it but from then on I never wore a scarf again. 

I’m now in university and I started wearing button shirts and short pants to avoid looking gay (no offense) since I don’t want to repeat my high school dilemma. The clothes that you wear then decide what people make out of you, when going for a business interview you dress up in a suit or professional clothes to give off the impression of responsibility and professionalism. Clothes then also give you yourself the confidence to improve and be a better you.

4. The Long Run

Today was the Batman Justice League fun run, usually I do the 10 kilometers for all the fun runs but since Covid had striked the world I had no previous training regarding the runs so the 5 kilometers seemed more like the comrades which is basically another 90 kilometers. During the run one starts to learn that practicing beforehand would really help a lot since usually before the lockdown I could run 10 km without walking for a bit  but ever since the lockdown I can’t even run 3 km without needing to walk for a bit. During the run one starts to notice the surrounding areas and the influence Covid lockdown has had on it. The people before Covid would smile and wave and now they just seem to rush to get past you. 

 The thing about running is that it clears your head because fitness makes you think clearer and more easily making learning easier and doing work a bit more enjoyable and easier. The more fit you are the happier you’ll be because if you have low self-esteem about your appearance by just doing some fitness you positively influence your body and become more attractable. At the end of the day the moral story is that the more you do the easier it gets and the more enjoyable it becomes for the future, and the more you find yourself being much more happier than you were before even considering doing some fitness even in small amounts.

3. Travelers Journey

One the best experiences one can have is to travel to a different continent and to experience the people and world. To see how different the world you know is to the world out there. I for example went on a boat cruise to Europe and being a South African it was quite the experience. The one place I would without a doubt want to visit again and would definitely consider staying permanently is Koper in Slovenia, one of the quietest and cleanest places I have ever seen in the world.  The place called old town had almost no people since everyone was at the beach thus the street were so quiet that one would think it was a ghost town that was so clean that all the ghost were street cleaners.  

Malta on the other hand was the complete opposite, it wasn't necessarily so that trash was lying everywhere but since the street were so full of people it wasn't like you could see if the street itself was full of trash. The people in Malta were very polite towards tourists luckily, so the fact that the entire street was cluttered with people it was made up with the fact that the people were very nice and polite towards us. Overall I think that a tour overseas is something everyone deserves if only for the purpose of education, but a overseas trip learns one that problems that you think are unique to your country is in fact shared by everyone. So even if you think we are all different we are all exactly alike.
