Guilt.... and vision problems

Few days back... i was doing my support work as usual when i was supposed to help fix a customers site instead i screwed it even further.... the feeling is indescribable. Its the opposite of what i am supposed to do. Then i wondered even a small thing like this can cause such feeling of guilt, imagine what goes on in the mind of a criminal who intentionally does evil deeds just for personal gain. Lately i realise my vision is deteriorating... sometime the images i see looks blur. Whats happening to me .. to my eyes... my life.. im losing sight of things that are really important to me. Somebody help me....

Ahh the Nostalgic feeling has returned!

Yo people its been a while since i have logged in. Been socially withdrawn lately. A hermit by nature i guess. Well since the Tv is broken i kind of miss the feeling of having a controller in my hands thats where i started to think about my first console gaming experience. Well it isnt much but back at that time its the all mighty Nintendo Entertainment System(NES) that caused a gaming fever worldwide, which somehow gave birth to some console gamers like me that were hooked ever since. We do not have the NES console here but rather a generic console (micro genius) that runs on the same architecture making playing NES games possible on this system. Which much search i found an emulator online that suit my liking its called Nestopia. It works with my logitech game pad which was slient since the the last time i used to play "Prince of Persia the two thrones". With my weapon at hand whats left is to look for NES roms. Ah the wonders of google, i found www.rom-world.com which has a large library of NES games and other hand held and platform Roms as well. After downloading the titles such as super mario bros, teenage mutant ninja turtles, castlevania, battle toads, ninja gaiden, adventure island, double drago and super contra just to name a few i set off on a journey to seek the nostalgic feeling that i have longed for. Without much effort the feeling returned thanks to the pixelized graphic and memorable tunes. What even better is that i was able to save the game at any moment which is not possible back then. This makes it possible for me to complete some of the games in a few hours, which is almost impossible to complete due to limited life and continues. Ending cutscenes that were not achievable previously flashed before my eyes. Well thats just all there was to it... really missed the feeling of playing DotA with "the gang" in Globalnet and the yum cha. Time really passes so fast without warning. Should i drop the gaming side of me? realising that more and more responsibility and challenges ahead as i journey into adulthood. Never ! gaming is a part of me which i will carry on till i have no strength left to mash buttons.... muahahaha.
