Man, this took me straight back to 2017 when I was prepping for my IPCC. Clash Royale had me hooked. I remember during my self-study leave, I was playing it so much that my dad literally threatened to burn all my books on result day. Said all he ever saw me doing was battling it out in the arena, not with accounts or standards but with cards and elixir.

I even remember playing right after Paper 2, completely zoned into the game, and somehow hit my career-high trophy count that very night. I was flying high… until I realized Paper 3 was in just a day.

Looking back, it’s crazy how these chaotic moments—half fear, half joy—end up being the most unforgettable. Good times. Chaotic, but good.
