i remember i was so pissed at that time ..... then when a friend brought me a replacement shell and offered to help me repair my 1st original ds ... i was truly grateful ... i remember how we had spent a couple of hours to do the job .... it was pretty difficult and confusing at times but we finally came through .... and was glad to had a fully good conditioned nintendo ds working again without having to worry about the top half coming off .... except ...i think ... was about 7 months ... the same problem occured ... i admit i was devastated .... the hinge had broken again .... thats when i finally admitted defeat and i just gave up on the nintendo ds .... i locked them both away in a drawer and probably left to collect dust .... i just cant cope with all this crap ..... thats when i decided ... after putting it off for so many years ... to switch to the sony PSP playstation portable .... i had a friend whos brother didnt really play on it anymore and i was offered to buy it .... it was in good condition and rarely used .... it was the very 1st model but i didnt mind .... so yeah ... now i have a psp .... in less than 6 months .... even the psp decided to try and f**k up my life even more..... and congrats ... it succeded ....  the button /joystick button came off .... i dont know when .... how .... where it dropped .... but ....

be willing to give everything to destroy that feeling .... cause ... i just dont want to be alone anymore .... im suffering inside .. and you cant see it ... i never let it show ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;because im such a coward like that ....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;... to be honest .. im tired of it all ... i  walk around in chinatown in london and people always hangout in groups .... i envy them and i am jealous ..... and probably i want to become more like them ....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when at the start of my day .... i went into dim sum at jade garden like i usually do .... and just sat on a table in a conrer by yourself ..... although surronded by people ... that feeling of solitude returns ..... and i just couldnt enjoy my meal like i used to .... it just doesnt feel right anymore ....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.... a lonely existence .... im so tired of it ..... to this year i swore to change the way i live cause i know it wont change itself .... i no longer hold back on travel expenses ..... and i try and fit in again ... but perhaps ... its too late ..... or maybe im just hoping for far too much to happen in such a short time ....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.... nowadays other than work ... i dont really have time for a social life anymore ..... some would say ive been using that all along as an excuse and sometimes i wonder if its true .... cause although my voice denies it ... some part of me inside knows its true .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ive been spending alot of my time after work in a bbc chat room ... its beenn like that for a good few months now .... at first it was always empty ... but gradually more and more people have started to use it..... it makes me happy that i have some level of recognition when people address me the moment i sign in .... however.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;once again i begin to feel more and more left out ... the people all seem to know each other well .... and talk alot of things ... but i can never seem to find an opening to join in into the conversation .... and is makes me sad .... people talking about their experiances and the things they like and do ..... i never had anything like that ... so i just sit there and watch the screen .... and watch how they talk ..... an once again ... that feeling of being a loner returns ..... in reality and in virtual ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;il always be a loner .... ive tried but maybe im not trying hard enough..... i want to change .... i dont want to be alone anymore ... but it all feels so far beyond my reach ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;maybe il be like this forever .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and it makes me sad .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;being rained upon alone in this world .... there is nothing that is more depressing .....&lt;div

and happened to be on the same day as valentines .... meh .... valentines what? forget about that its all about the year of the tiger!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as usual i have once again neglected my blog ..... i think a repeat of my attempt to keep a diary maybe resurfacing. i completely ignored january ...... damn you facebook.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as like all the chinese new years in the past, my family (except pk) always go to london on the day after ..... its just a strange custom that seems to have developed randomly out of no where .... in fact its been like that for so many years now, i highly doubt its a coincidence .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway i would like to talk about my trip to london this year, cause unlike my visits in the past .... it was very differnet this time .... a change which in fact made me happy .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;once upon a time ..... it would usually be just me, my sister and mum on the train to london ..... playing cards on the way as usual .... get to paddington, get a tube to piccadilly circus, then head straight to dim sum restuarant "jade garden" ... ive always been going to the same restuarant since childhood ... so that probably wont ever change .... after the meal the 3 of us would then go our separate ways ..... and then thats when it hits me .... that loneliness that always surfaces when i step out into chinatown .... even in the crowded streets and the busy roads of people always seem to be rushing about ...... groups of chinese friends hanging out with each other like always ....deep down i envy them .... in a way ive always wanted to be like them ...... i sigh deeply, turn on my music and as usual walk the path alone ..... i enter a little world of my own ..... and i deny the existance of the reality around me .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[Journey of a thousand miles begin with single step]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15th of feb, the day after chinese new year and valentines day which happened to cross over ..... great .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for the first time in my life, this journey to london was entirely different, and its all thanks to her...... when i look back ... i still deep down laugh to myself a little cause its just ..... haha i cant believe it happened ......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i knew her for less than 24hrs ... off facebook .... she appeared on the "friend suggestions" and i dunno why but i just decided to send the request ^^ ...... it all happened very quickly ..... a few comments on a wall post and then suddenly the next day i met her in person ..... she had asked me to do an interview with her about "BBC's" .... at first i paniced lol ..... its been a while since i did anything like that ..... but i couldnt resist ..... it reminds me alittle about myself from along time ago ..... cause i had interest in doing journalism at university once college had finish ... the thought of travelling around the world and writing my experiences ..... and sharing with the whole world the things is saw but the readers couldnt ..... i wouldnt say it was a childhood dream (i still want to be a baker lol) but its something i had an interest in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i think its fair to say that she was my second only chinese friend .... and in those hours that i spent with her ... i felt like, i could feel that "feeling" ive always longed for ..... the fact i could feel like i was chinese again ...... and although the time wasnt long ..... it still made me happy deep inside .....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thank you!

imagined how being sat next to you you might have had a slight look of discomfort on your face....but suddenly you just smiled back and you held my hand...... it felt so real .... it felt like that feeling i prayed for everyday....at that moment  i became myself again....even if it was just for a minute.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from then on we were dating..... we did all the things people on dates do....go out..... eat out...spend time together...go on walks with each other..... spend the nights in each others company while watching the stars together....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i felt truly happy.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;towards the end&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i remember we were doing some sort of work together... i remember we were in a chinese school arranging the dinner tables for children..... all the while we joked..... we laughed together....and we shared happiness.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and then it ended..... the cold winter..... it awoke me......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

load and just someone, anyone be there and answer .... and tell me never to give up .... i have so much on my mind right now. .....just want to get it off my chest and hopefully try and make myself feel a little better, its what ive been telling people to do when they upset, i guess its my turn....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i have alot to say&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;where do i begin?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;life, i question it, i question my purpose, and why i am here today.... im really struggling now..... its probably not even called "living" perhaps and more accurate term would be " surviving" for these last few years, ie really slaved away at work, constantly trying to improve my cooking and ability, but it just feels like im not getting anywhere ....i tell myself ive done my best....i gave it my all..... but did i really? because of work ive had to give up, perhaps sacrifice many things.....the things, the luxuries and the enjoyments of the people that they do the things they like, ive never had any of that..... and for that i envy them, but in the end i just dont have the heart to hate them, if fact i wish them all the best of life, il just continue being where i am and continue to watch from afar....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;people who get to go to university, perhaps you dont realise at first but, personally i think you're all very lucky, perhaps when you get tired of it all just think for a second and show some consideration in your mind, of those of us who wanted and who really wished for and really wanted to go to university, but couldnt, not because i lack ability ....my grades had always been above average ...but just below best...... however, my parents never allowed it, instead, once i finished college i had to go straight into work, and help out at the family shop.......where ive slaved away for many years....since 1997 to be in fact.....because of the shop....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i had to give up my dreams&lt;br /&gt;i had to give up my hopes of going to university&lt;br /&gt;i had to give up my free time&lt;br /&gt;i had to give up the love of my love&lt;br /&gt;i had to give up most of my friends&lt;br /&gt;and....&lt;br /&gt;i had to give up my self&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;im no longer the person i used to be.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so much hate...that i cant be bothered to hate no more.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;to all the lucky people in this world&lt;br /&gt;to all the happy people in this world&lt;br /&gt;to perhaps everyone....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;treasure the things you do ave and never let it go....otherwise ou may regret it for the rest of your life....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from perhaps an unfortunate lonely sad individual from a small town where il continue to be depressed and continue praying for the one who'll bring me back to life.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;goodnight&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s just last night, they had the annual fireworks display in the local area.... every year when i could, id take and hour off work to go and see ..... but this year, i didnt think they where that good but maybe thats just me.....i used to think they where beautiful, but i cant see the fireworks in such a way anymore.....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

those to be the most happiest moments of my life....yet sometimes i cant help but feel sad ......i really do still kinda miss her ( ; _ ; ) ..... i remember our relationship lasted for about 1 yr and a half...... but i eventually decided to give up and let her go..... cause i felt guilty for "keeping" her to myself....i mean like i couldnt give her the things like i used to....i couldnt perform person to person things i was just a voice on the other side of a computer monitor...id walk around in parks and id see couples everywhere...i couldnt give her anything like that...i felt like i was selfish trying to hold on to something i couldnt even reach anymore........ truth is i couldnt say it..... so i decided to just ignore her.....i quit speaking to her on msn and social networks and emails and etc...... and till this very day i still regret it....in fact after just a month i wanted to get in contact again...but i fell ill and had to remain in hospital for long periods of time.....so i couldnt even if i wanted.......&lt;br /&gt;several years later i found her again on facebook..... and after long period of time.....i gathered the courage to speak to her again.....and so now we're just friends.........its good enough for me and im happy again that shes returned into my life...... just as friends though......and to be honest im satisfied with just that ..... or am i

It begins here &gt; Moments before you leave, go through your phonebook, and tell everyone you are leaving ask for them to take you to the airport, never try to hide it, there can be no definite answer, but at least i will, cause i was always here waiting for your call. The one who will drive you is a true friend, the one that sees you leave is a good friend and the one sat next to you on the plane is someone you can spend your life with, although spoken like three different people, sometimes we can forget that its possible that we are refering to the same person..... Cause although i cant drive, il make sure you'll reach the airport, although i cant bear to see you leave il make sure im there to say goodbye, And although im afraid of heights and flying il make sure im there to surprise you as il sit down in the seat next to yours and hold your hand so that you wont need to be afraid of being alone anymore.......&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8048508190894279992-7076901943003594276?l=distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/feeds/7076901943003594276/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/2009/06/il-be-there-when-rain-stops.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048508190894279992/posts/default/7076901943003594276'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048508190894279992/posts/default/7076901943003594276'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/2009/06/il-be-there-when-rain-stops.html' title='il be there when the rain stops....'/><author><name>Tom "tomo" chan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12347955126999991168</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_heyq7CjmRak/S9OGdxVC6II/AAAAAAAAAAs/mhEzHhfEEB8/S220/DSC02506.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048508190894279992.post-2532482931558739145</id><published>2009-06-06T04:29:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-15T10:45:54.129-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='a word for XX'/><title type='text'>without you</title><content type='html'>. . . . . . . . . . . .

But i can no longer experiance those kind of memories again.....at least i guess when it rains.....although you cant see it....im crying.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8048508190894279992-7661444187801227068?l=distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/feeds/7661444187801227068/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/2009/06/endless-rain.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048508190894279992/posts/default/7661444187801227068'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048508190894279992/posts/default/7661444187801227068'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/2009/06/endless-rain.html' title='endless rain'/><author><name>Tom "tomo" chan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12347955126999991168</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_heyq7CjmRak/S9OGdxVC6II/AAAAAAAAAAs/mhEzHhfEEB8/S220/DSC02506.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048508190894279992.post-4065050432972125415</id><published>2009-06-02T04:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-15T10:46:32.918-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='a word for XX'/><title type='text'>Empty bottle filled with nothing...</title><content type='html'>01/06/2009 sunny.&lt;br /&gt;Its been a while since i wrote an entry... But for some reason i felt like writing something again... Today was really sunny and very nice with a slight breeze here in england which can be very rare to have. However i guess i kinda wasted such a good day by spending most of it indoors.... Kfc, Xbox,wii, chor dee, watched random videos online.... Then when i suddenly thought.... How crap,boring and in general totally pointless my life is &gt;_&lt; just feels like im not getting anywhere in life... Is this how it ends?! Sad ... I feel so weak... Like i can no longer accomplish anything... I once had dreams.... Just like any one would do.... The effect of losing something precious... Can truly change a way a person becomes. Sadly my life is tied down with burdens i think i can no longer carry....only through music do i feel.... A slight touch of freedom... This freedom i have longed for so much.... Almost within reach....foolish and selfish as always...we all want things that can be forbidden to us just out of reach...obtaining what we seek could mean for me....."to gain all, to lose all" i dont know how long i can carry on...but i swear it was much easier.....everything was fine when you were still around.....i miss you so much....please....continue to watch me from heaven.......let oyu shining rays guide me forever more&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8048508190894279992-4065050432972125415?l=distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/feeds/4065050432972125415/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/2009/06/empty-bottle-filled-with-nothing.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048508190894279992/posts/default/4065050432972125415'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8048508190894279992/posts/default/4065050432972125415'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://distantgreykingdom.blogspot.com/2009/06/empty-bottle-filled-with-nothing.html' title='Empty bottle filled with nothing...'/><author><name>Tom "tomo" chan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12347955126999991168</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_heyq7CjmRak/S9OGdxVC6II/AAAAAAAAAAs/mhEzHhfEEB8/S220/DSC02506.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
