Elective Month + Opioid Lecture

The elective month is looming just around the corner. Some said that it's the week of relaxation, no fuss, no lectures. Some said it's a holiday instead, finishing faster equals longer holidays. I say it's the month for DoTA. I am already behind others in DoTA... Skills diminishing + Slower reflexes due to too much work (just a hypothesis)

So familiar... Isn't it the same one I planted just yesterday..?

Today's lecture is about opioids (endogenous included) Dr. Sim (Debra) taught us well, good enough to let my primitive ape brain to understand that endogenous opioids are released when you are involved in sports, and that's what makes you feel 'high' and gay. Cheah, sitting beside me, immediately chirped in, 'DoTA!' Hehe playing DoTA really boosts spirits (of course, to be on the winning side) Thus, we postulated that it's the new kind of 'sports' we're very much into.

Speaking about synthetic opioids, I suddenly remember the vow to remind my parents that, I don't take drugs; I don't smoke; I don't drink; I don't gamble; I don't frequent nightclubs; I don't sleep around; I don't spend; I don't dye nor pierce; I don't lie; but I just DoTA... That's it!

Hehe on a much more lighter tone here, we were discussing about the cold-turkey treatment addicts had to endure (Dr. Sim shoke her head in disappointment as she voiced out that addicts, even after the 7 days of hell, as she puts it, return to the embrace of drugs) I was thinking that if I take drugs, and now I'm in the 'turkey-chamber', would a computer linked up to the world with a copy of DoTA suffice the need of drugs?

Sniff Sniff, out of the freezer into the oven!

Baseline : Do play DoTA, Don't take drugs!
