If I (of all people) know your name - you're not unknown.

I can't remember when I first saw the alias, but I loved it - it's an intelligent mix of blizzard lore, sc2 and the #1 thing people like TargA hate - PANDERING (as well as for the obvious biased panda reasons)

I've once been down the same road, where the most logical solution to help friends and family was 'the ultimate sin' - but thanks to support of people like those here in SC2 community (and Nick Vanzetti); you sit down and look at yourself and go... Man I'm freakin' awesome. Why would I quit being THIS?!

Remember; you've been a winner since before you were born. You were in a race against literally millions and billions and won the right of birth. You're only 19 - but simply making 19 puts you miles ahead of the competition. Christ, a huge percent of people here are at or under 25 - you're not even at the quarter line in a lifetime that can that could potentially be building up to a point many years later.

Look at some of the most famous and influential people the world has ever seen - so many of them were total pieces of shit (some even suicidal also), then they overcame hurdles, pressure - and I'm sure many suffered as you have; then 10-20 years later they do something ******* amazing - just look at these motherfuckers;

• Guy Laliberté - this nerd invented Cirque du Soleil after being homeless
• Howard Schultz - this loser made Starbucks after living in his car for years
• Leonardo Del Vecchio - abandoned orphan who now owns Ray-Ban and Oakley!
• Roman Abramovich - The BATMAN of oil; from dead parents -> crazy billionaire with mega yacht
• J.K. Rowling - Harry potter chick was on centrelink living week to week poor as dirt...

That's just 5 that I randomly know of - there's literally millions and who's to say you're not going to be one of them!

what?

and i think u have missunderstood abramovitsj road to success.

Hey panda, we're all here for you so cheer up! =)

Ur 19, theres alot of other things out there you`ve never seen or heard before.

I was going through a pretty low period once and a good friend brought me to this orphanage. Thats when i realise i am very fortunate compared to alot of ppl out there. Strangely, social work is a great way to not only help others, but help yourself too.

You're 19 you actually can't **** up
When I went to university (ANU) I was studying asian studies. So social science and language.
One of the leading professors had many interesting things to say. He had a text book published and was great professor of history, culture, philosophy, politics, international relations etc
He actually failed university irreparably the first time - not one class, almost all of them
He went back several years later and was extremely successful.

You have so many supporters here - a lot more than the average user - so push on and things will get better with age

Hey Panda, I remember our practice games we played while chatting with you and your friend over Skype. You seem like a really good person and remember you being interesting, funny and in good spirits. Hopefully this is just a bad patch and you can find a way to get past this. Good luck and if you want to chat on Skype let me know!!

I like this movie clip from Rocky

Wow....just....wow

I just got back from a long day. (Running errands, attending my cousin's b'day, telling relatives how I'm 'suppose' to be going to med school in Sept assuming results in Aug don't screw me over) and I find this thread.

From the bottom of my heart (and slightly demented mind)

THANK YOU SC2SEA COMMUNITY

Everyone, thank you for giving words of encouragement, support and just positive things. This Panda feels overwhelmed. I want to write to all of you but one does not just write his feelings of gratitude and thanks with words. Just know I'm very emotionally overwhelmed by you guys :')

To say that I will fight this would be me repeating what I said a couple weeks back when I got expelled from my classes. To say I will not have such thoughts would be a lie. But to say I now know I have people who understand and willing to hear me out (parents aside, they still don't accept the idea their son is labelled depressed and dangerous to self. The psych I was suppose to see saw me more of a case study.) is not only refreshing but heartwarming to say the least.

I will do my best to not only achieve something this Panda will be proud of but something THIS community can be proud (or close to it) of as well.

Again, to all of you guys, thank you and much love from Panda
