It's not that I don't like Club Penguin, I figured it doesn't really like me.
Today I tried to connect about 4 to 5 times, I went to the North Pole's Freezer, Iceberg, and WhiteOut. Played a strange game called 'Ballistic Balls' that sounded vaguely sexual until I actually started playing it. My penguin mounted a wakeboard and then had to jump over all the icebergs and bottles and Balls floating in the sea. My penguin kept getting knocked off the board because it has poor motor skills. Or maybe because it was too fat to jump over all the stuff that was coming at it so fast it freaked out. Most unfortunate. I died after Level 2. No wonder the game is called Ballistic Balls. It makes you feel ballistic, and want to scream "Balls". Although I suspect such an exclamation would cause another penguin to report you (They have Authorities in Club Penguin), and then my penguin would get unceremoniously booted out.
My penguin was unofficially kicked out by the server because every place I went to kept filling up and then I just got logged out automatically. It really sucks. I don't know why I bother, but maybe it's some masochistic form of entertainment.
My penguin vents it's frustration by picking up snowballs and throwing them at a target board. All of them hit the bull's eye, by nature of the program which I think aims to create a sense of self-efficacy in children. Everything is perfect in Club Penguin world until I see one penguin with the name 'Daisy's Mum'. How freaky that parents come on Club Penguin to snoop out their kids. No one has privacy anymore.
UPDATE: I tried one last time, and this time my penguin actually earned money! It did manual labour by unloading coffee beans off a truck. It was hard work and earned me only 147 coins. Bah. I kept getting squashed by fish, flowerpots and anvils flying out of the truck. Tomorrow when I go to Coffee Bean to study I will appreciate the coffee beans more.
And then I went to make pizza, and that felt like slave labour. I mean you have to make sure that you spread pizza sauce over the whole pizza and they won't let you off if you leave a bit of white space on the pizza. Who knows they might just end up breeding obsessive compulsive penguins. Pizza making makes me very kan cheong because the conveyor belt moves so freakin fast and there are so many ingredients to be put on the pizza I freak out. And you get only 5 coins per pizza. I think unloading coffee beans is easier.
Total earnings for today is 207 coins.I now have 307 coins. To buy a violin I need 450 coins. To buy a guitar I needd 700 coins. What crap is that. Penguin economy is screwed.
I think I make a very wimpy penguin.
