When I was a kid, I really liked to play video games every
day, every hour, Iโ€™m busy to improve my video game skills and build a virtual
empire in those games.

 

In that virtual world, my confidence is higher than in the
real world because in the real-world I had nothing to show up to my friends, my
classmates, and others. So I decided to go virtual and create a good
empire.  

 

But, in my real world, I was totally disconnected from
friends, family, school too. Whenever I had some breaks or free time in school
that whole time I used it to play video games.
