Albeit not being the club I intended to join, coming here made me realize that there are more people that enjoy similar things and we don’t have to feel left out or geeky.
I do play games at home and enjoy doing so, so coming to clubs that match ones interest should be second nature. But nowadays, games don’t make me feel joy anymore for lack of a better word. I would get seriously affected by the game and sometimes ignore my own needs like hunger or just ignore my parents.
It’s all a trap that once we experience feel the instant gratification of but lose touch of important aspect of. I don’t mean to say games are bad and I love games but I want to do something more than gaming.
Of course if you are a professional gamer than my words don’t apply as games are their life and everyone’s life is different and should be respected.
But, being the first club I have visited I was quite grateful to see how people are friendly and willing to meet new people. Just these qualities alone are able to captivate people into joining the family.
The room was also packed full even though we were in a tiny classroom the interest in the club was apparently on many peoples faces.
Although the esports club isn’t one I intend to fully partake in I would like to enjoy the special computers of the club and meet people who has interests in similar things as myself and perhaps can rekindle the joy I once had playing games.
