Task 3 - Confession of a gamer

As i recalled the days when i was a gaming addict, i started to regret.
Two years ago, I was waiting at the internet cafe for my friends.
It was another holiday.

My good friends and I often meet to play online games.
It was a common thing to do as we would meet every once a week.

We believe that being a gamer helps to release the stress we get from school.
Therefore, we play online games together.
My friend would call me a game addict as I would spend hours in front of the computer.
Even during school days I played online games.
However i did not totally neglected my studies as it was the most important.
Despite believing that studies was the most important, i continued playing.
Regardless of time and location, I would always try to game.
Soon it became a rountine.
Everyday after school i would on the computer and began to game.
Despite scolding and nagging from my family members, I still continue.

Not long my grade began to drop.
The drop was not very obvious therefore I did not pay much attention to it.
Soon it was the mid-year exams.
However this does not stop me from gaming.
Soon the exams have finally arrived and I began to panic.
As i realised it was too late, I had to choice but to try my luck in finishing the paper.

Not long after, the results of various subjects came.
I failed many subject.
It was a devastating moment for me.

I began to plan my work.
My family members were shocked.
For months I would mug all day long.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for the end of year examination.
Feeling excited about it, I had no doubts that i would fail my examination.

The exams was merely a live game to me.
Finally my results came.

I managed to pass the subject which i used to fail during my mid year.
I was extremely elated.
Feeling a change in my exams, I began to think that actually gaming was a lure.
A lure that will led you to think wrongly and allowed you to make the wrong decision.

    You have good ideas and your story is structured well. However, you need to remember that you need to show more than tell.
