was talking to a friend about documentaries and which i thought was the best.

on nature, it would be planet earth by bbc. every scene was absolutely breath taking! you can't help but ooh and aah at all the animals that you probably never seen before and the flawless filming.

but the best, most eye opening, dramatic, powerful, heart wrenching documentary i've ever seen, is 'deliver us from evil' directed by amy berg. i have never cried that much before watching a documentary. or any other movie.

'deliver us from evil' is about paedophile priests, mainly the history of father o'grady, and his abuse victims.

no narrations in this film. just interviews with father o'grady, his victims and members of the vatican, several lawyers. which i thought, was really important, coz it's not biased. nothing about religion, no anti-catholic remarks. everything was based on true accounts, fact and evidence.

father o'grady molested and raped dozens of children during his 20 years as a priest. the church protected him, covered up for him and moved him from parish to parish everytime he was found doing the dirty deed, set free on fresh, unsuspecting victims each time they moved him. families with children all under his care, never informed of his dark and sick history. his youngest victim was a 9 month old baby.

he only served 7 years in jail. and is now living comfortably in ireland. with no one to report to, under nobody's supervision.

as he recalls what he did, and says, quote "People ask if I'm aroused by a man. I say no. People ask if I'm aroused by a woman. I say no. People ask if I'm aroused by a child. I say yeah, maybe. People ask if I'm aroused by a child in a bathing suit. I say probably. People ask if I'm aroused by a child naked. I say, you betcha.", father o'grady tells his story without a shred or remorse. >_< it angers you because it's not a fictional character, he is a real full blown paedophile, leaving a trail of very very disturbed, angry, psychologically damaged children during his 20 years of priesthood, and at this moment, he is probably sipping tea in a cafe somewhere in ireland.

the chilling recollection of the victims is mind numbing. probably the most heart felt scene is the one with jyono's father, when he breaks down with anguish and feelings i don't think any of us who haven't gone through what their families went through, can even begin to comprehend. all that, captured on film in this documentary.

i shall not say too much about it. i think i actually said quite a lot already didn't even realised. after no need to watch hor. go watch it. i just skimmed the surface. it's extremely informative and will leave you thinking about jyono and the other victims many days after.

was at this 6 yr old's birthday party. there was this 11 yr old kid there.

and everyone doesn't like him. adults k. not even the kids.

because he is so damn spoilt. i mean seriously, can you imagine. the parents spoil him so much, they created such a monster that nobody can stand. and he's only 11.  and it's not even the usual, i-want-everything kind of spoilt. it's like, really attitude problem kind of spoilt. he was such a big bully. cocky. disrespectful. braggart. i don't think i've ever met anyone, as cocky as this boy.

i wouldn't even know what to feel if i found out all my friends don't like my 11 year old kid. O_o

i'm a smoker. but i fully support the idea of no smoking indoors. ESPECIALLY in clubs. seriously, i feel like we're the only country in the world who hasn't banned smoking in clubs. it's a more pleasant experience to dance in a smoke free club. i don't care if half the smokers in malaysia protests and whines. just freaking walk outside and take a puff. stay outside if you have to puff the whole night.

AND it benefits smokers as well. because you really cut down on the smoking. when i was in thailand in a club, and you can't smoke inside, the MOST i had was 3 sticks i think. compared to a regular night in zouk where maybe half a pack will be gone before the party is over.

so not only do we save ourselves from second hand smoke that completely fogs the club, but we also cut down on smoking. everybody wins!

does it hurt? of course it does.
the hypocrisy amazes me.
i've had enough. i will stop caring.
