Machine Hogging

What the…??? I can’t think of a good title for this post….so I just typed the first thing that popped in my head. Unfortunately, its a story on its own…later about that.

It’s the 3rd time school has been suspended for the last 2 weeks and it’s not really good for business. Well I don’t really blame the government for thinking of the students’ welfare…but still…it didn’t even rain today! Why no classes? Tsk! Not good for business! Not good at all! *sigh* And there’s supposed to be a holiday for the next 2 mondays…Aug 20 and 27! It’s a double bogey for the shop again….*sigh*

But still…it’s not really a bad week altogether. The RVR’s damage is almost completely repaired. I checked its status earlier and the remaining problem is the wiper which doesn’t really work at all no matter which speed setting you choose. Oh! I almost forgot…I haven’t posted why it was damaged. There was a vehicular accident about 3 or 4 weeks ago when my mom was driving it. Fortunately, they weren’t hurt or anything but the car was badly damaged (front and back). So, as I said its almost completely repaired and maybe good to go tomorrow or saturday.

Another good thing is that Initial D Ver4 came out about a month or so at some of our most popular mall destinations….namely….Timezone at G4, WOF at Megamall, and Timezone at Megamall (I think). Anyway…I played it a few times at G4 and the experience seems…hmm…new. I can take all the things I learned from the 2 earlier versions, put them in a big can, put a gallon of gasoline on it, light a match, and burn the whole thing to kingdom come. ^__^ I’m so clueless with this new version that I seem like a noob. Hehe…but as they say, practice makes perfect. But I say to you…practice will make you poor! For 30php per game, you’d better have a deep pocket for this game! That’s why I only play occassionally and when I have the time or money with me. ^__^

And finally about the title…its about the time I spent playing at G4 earlier. Since there were no classes today, I opted to close the shop early and head to the mall and unwind. Unwind meaning eat at some fastfood and play at the arcade. ^__^ Anyway,  I expected to wait for a while to be able to play the game since its new and everything…there’s a lot of players wanting to try it out. It’s not really new to me to stand for an hour or so waiting for my turn at the machine but it’s not fun when someone’s hogging it and KNEW very well that there’s a multitude of people waiting their turn. I just hate it when people do that…I mean when you’re out of credits to play the game but want to go on…you’re supposed to stand up, buy some more credits for yourself, and fall in line again. But NOOOOO…this particular player that pissed me off kept asking his "friends" or any random people at the back to buy credits for him so he can keep sitting there like a fool and play the game. Isn’t that so convenient? NOT! I mean I understand if he sat there for his turn and have a HUGE number of credits…it’s his right to spend it all in that one game. But when you ran out of credits…game over man! Stand and let the good people at the back have their turn, dumbass! (oops! sorry for the word peepz…im still heated up ^__^). Anyway, after a few sarcastic remarks from me and deathly glares, I think he got the picture and left. Whew! I was on the verge of throwing the nearest arcade machine on his face. Hehe…kidding. ^__^

So a little advice…respect other people if you demand respect. He didn’t respect us when we were standing there for an hour watching him play like crap so I think he deserved the remarks. Hehe.

Peace. Over and out.
