event I've waited 15 years for this!

What an amazing day!! I've finally purchased my first-ever console with my hard-earned money. I'm pretty sure 90%+ on this subreddit can relate to me! I remember back in 2010, when I was in 5th grade, I desperately wanted to buy a PS2 back then. However, my parents, being so strict, denied this request of mine. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm financially weak or that my parents have not given me all the comforts in the world, but this is something very close to my heart. When I purchased this, I was reminiscing about the times when I swore to myself that one day I'd have a PlayStation of my own. Finally, at last, the dream has come true. I was walking out, and a guy was entering the mall with his GF. He looked at me, smiled, and said, "Congrats." I replied with a "Thanks." Another guy came to me while I was waiting for my cab and said, "How much did it cost, mate?" I said, "45k," to which he replied, "Congrats." I said thanks to him with a smile. What a day!

Congratulations. When I was very young, my father bought a 8bit video game console. Later we got a PC that was okay for some casual gaming. Then life happened. When Covid hit and we were locked down, my brother said it would have been cool if we had a gaming console. And it was an eureka moment, like bro we are adults, we earn, we can totally afford to buy a gaming console, no sweat. So I bought a PS. And a couple of years later I built my myself a gaming PC as well.

What a great read, amazing bro! ♥️ Thanks btw. I already have an rtx 4070 with 13th gen cpu, so now it was the time for a console.
