Mahjong

Today, I am going to share a good activity for you to kill the time. That's Mahjong! It is a game for four players. Actually, it is also a gambling game. But, for me, I usually play with my friends just for fun and without paying money. In the game, each player is dealt either thirteen or sixteen tiles in a hand (depending on the variation being played). It is diffcult to learn through just the words. However, I want to tell you Mahjong is good for health! A recent study by doctors in Hong Kong concluded that extensive playing of the game can induce epileptic seizures. Studies by doctors have also shown in Hong Kong that the game is beneficial for individuals suffering from dementia or cognitive memory difficulties, leading to the development of mahjong therapy.


I didn't play with my friends for long time, so I must play with them during this summer! ha xddd
