— I used to record songs from tv and radio onto a tape recorder or my cell phone and walk around on the trains/subways holding it to my ear. Not even a fucking Walkman, it didn’t even have headphone jacks. An actual tape recorder. Like, as big as a pencilcase or a harry potter book (well not quite as big as a harry potter book but still).

And the cell phone, it wasn’t buying music, it wasn’t downloading shit off the computer, it was actually fucking recording it using the built in 4 minutes of shitty-quality audio memory cause im too poor for a memory card.
people would look at me like 'wtf? o.0' lol

my only digital camera is... er WAS 2 megapixels. until this christmas. when i got a 6 mp one.

I have asian parents. enough said about that.

All of my new years' money gets taken away. So every chinese new years, I get and lose about $200 — 500.

I have never, NEVER legally purchased music or movies off the internet. in the theater, yeah, but NEVER off the internet. It’s all pirated/ripped/limewire

I would be HAPPY, to actually receive even a bootleg chinese mp3 player for a gift.

my only mp3 player was a chinese bootleg, and 512 mb. it fell out of my pocket while running for the lirr at woodside. i never saw it again.

my psp memory stick is 512 mb. the psp has since been confiscated. all of my games were bought used.

i have stolen money. i’m not too proud of it, but still.. fuck

i have stolen from corner stores, staples, and subway stores

when i got mugged, i only had 10 cents and the guy mugging me actually said 'what the fuck kind of kid only has ten cents?'

i have been mugged

the only game i have is a psone (my psp is confiscated so...)

my gamecube was gotten for free cause it was broken, and i fixed it by slamming it with my fists. it was thrown away by said asian mother. at least she recycled...

i have never had anything above regular cable, 100 channels. except for a 2-week free trial. oh wait, actually i got cinemax for free on a tv from the neighbor. as do all my relatives in taiwan.

most of my clothes are from tj maxx. except one hoodie from macy’s

I can’t afford to replace the zipper on my ecko jacket, the one from macy’s.

our house has been robbed

i pick up people’s scrap paper and use it.

my glasses are 3 years old, and bent but I can’t afford another pair

our family has like 10 payments to make this year. although that’s cause we just moved to LA, we’re usually not in debt.

my backpack is ripped.

the most valuable personal possession i’ve had besides my psp (which someone always confiscates... fucking azn parents.. and teachers) is a 2gb 1st-gen ipod nano that i got off a mexican kid with autism cause im like his only friend, and my dad found it, thought i stole it, and i had to hire a friend to pretend he lent it to me. but since it was a friend, he didn’t charge me.

i have NEVER had any high-quality headphones. They were all from the 99 cents store.

I still have a record player. And use it.

Our 1995 nissan quest has many dents and scratches

i hustle for money. like selling stuff (mainly internet sites), playing card games, etc. so do a few of my friends. but most of my friends are from rich families and have the things that i don’t.

when i want to play video games, i have to ride my bike at least one mile to the arcade, which costs money, or 5 miles to a mall because i can’t afford the fucking bus.
at least in NY you got a student mta card and could use it to take the q12 to flushing and play games there for $2/hour. cheaper than an arcade. but that shop got shut down...

i walk to school/ride my bike a lot

before last year, the only bike i had was 20 years old and broken. i still have it, cause my new one is too valuable to ride out in. and it’s only $850.

i had another one, but i forgot it.
