It’s been a while since my last blog post, so here’s a small life update.
Last December, I bought my first ever game console — a PS5.
Not impulse. Not hype. Just a gift to myself. Maybe healing something younger inside me.
Weekends became simple. My partner and I on the couch. Controllers in hand. Laughing over Tekken rounds and chaotic Bomberman matches.
I only keep four games — on purpose. I’ve seen too many stories about massive backlogs and unfinished titles, and I didn’t want gaming to start feeling like another task instead of something fun.
It’s amazing, though. Cinematic. Heavy. Worth every minute.
But lately, something changed.
Not because I’m busy. Not because I don’t have time.
I just… don’t play as much.
Maybe I outgrew my gaming era. Maybe it’s responsibilities. Maybe adulthood. Maybe work draining the energy first.
I still love games. They just don’t hit the same way they used to.
The excitement is quieter now.
Still — I don’t regret buying the PS5. Not even a bit.
It reminds me that fun doesn’t have to be productive. That rest can be intentional. That it’s okay to play.
Maybe I just need shorter games. Maybe fixed gaming hours. Maybe one story that sparks the fire again.
For now, the console waits. And that’s okay.
PS: Sorry for the messy setup — real life isn’t always aesthetic.
Adios, until next blog.
Meanwhile, JJK is back. Let’s go.
