Ya, pa open time nga sa PC 3! 😆
"Open time PC 1 te!" 😅
Back then, after-school gaming was not as easy as opening an app. We had to wait for the school gate to open, run straight to the nearest computer shop, and hope there was still one vacant PC left for us.
When everything was full, we stayed behind other players and watched whatever was on screen: CS, Half-Life, RO, Dota, Battle Realms, or whatever everyone was playing. Sometimes we learned just by watching or even coached them. Sometimes we just stood there quietly, hoping their time was almost up so we could finally have our turn.
Today, games are already in our pockets. One tap on a phone, and we can play almost anywhere, anytime.
But somehow, nothing feels quite the same as those computer shop days. The noisy room, the crowded chairs, the nonstop keyboard sounds, the smell of headphones, and that small but unforgettable feeling of happiness when someone finally stood up and said, "Ikaw na."
