Stealing properties

Fara has been talking about this game non-stop. She plays it at restaurants, home and everywhere else! If she can bring Nazrin and Razin in the toilet, I think she'll play in there too. Of course I was curious, what is this game? I asked her and she said it's all about properties and stuffs like that. Jokingly, I said, "Well, I'm a Real Estate student, I must be good at it!" But I wasn't really interested to play or buy the cards.

Until last Monday, Zahir and I went to Toy R Us and I ended up buying that box of cards. I bought it just because I was excited that this game involves properties. You can't really carry the normal Monopoly around in your handbag, what's with the big board and cards.
Obviously, I didn't know what was waiting for me. It's just a game! It won't hurt, right???

WRONG.

Have you ever played Monopoly Deal before? Trust me, if you don't want to get addicted, you better don't. It's been only 3 days since I first started playing and now I'm addicted. Since my sister doesn't really like playing games that requires the brain to be put in use, I don't really have anyone to play with at home. Not like my parents have the time to sit and play with me either -___- I went to Zahir's today just so I can play with him and his brother.


Who knew it only took a box of cards that costs RM 19.90 to make me addicted? And now, all I could think of is stealing properties and making people pay the rents when I'm supposed to think about my final exams next week. My mind keeps telling me that Monopoly Deal is about property too. So when I play, I learn too... I hope.

But I doubt the questions for my exam papers will be 'how do you steal someone else's property?' or 'which card can you use to build a hotel on your property?'
