Porn

Yes you read it correctly it is indeed PORN haha

Ok dun get me wrong I'm just overwhelmed cos I've been reading non-stop about child pornography in Japan since yesterday! My eyes are now rolling out of their sockets!

The interesting thing is the history of pornography in Japan! haha Started in the Edo period, pornography existed in wooden pictorials called Shunga. Basically during that period, Edo was consisted of mostly men, who travelled from all over Japan to work or to learn who to write and read etc. So all these men without the chance to meet the right gal in a male populated city, they turn to prostitution and PORN! haha so tats how porn become so popular! As you know Japan is the place where people visits public baths and parade with their genitalz hanging out totally no religious or social taboos attached to nudity. So porn is widely accepted into the mainstream! haha

Porn at that time, like now, had various genres of sexual acts, heterosexual, homosexual and even animism. And the people viewing porn come from everywhere, different age groups, genders, social classes etc. It was even rumoured that in laws give the wives shunga when they marry.

It was until the Meiji Restoration period that the Japanese government decided to practice censorship. This is because they are worried what the European countries would think of them. This persists till now, tats why when you watch jap porn now, unless it is meant to be circulated overseas, the genitals would be censored/mosaiced.

This is also the time where they start to use other forms of things to represent penetration. Like octapuses attacked (raping) a woman.

Right now, the west have a negative connotation of Japanese porn. Basically they think Japanese are sadistic people who enjoys weird stuff like rape and SM (sado-masochism). But this is not really true. Because of the language barrier, alot of the storylines for their porn are removed to avoid BORING the audience! So the only parts they show are sex, sex and more SEX! haha So thats what caused the misunderstanding...

Well after so much, I'm still not very sure what's up with people's liking for child porn! haha hmm but i suppose that is like asking why some people dun eat seafood... So yes after reading 125143million texts and articles on Japan and child pornography, I have a stand. I think the production, distribution and possession of child porn of any kind, anime, manga, games etc, should be banned all together. I mean it totally traumatises the children! It also endangers children's life! I agree that watching porn (any kind of porn) is a way for someone to release the urges/desires/needs. It acts as a healthy way of release so people wont really go COMMIT the act. But I also think there are some people who after watchin porn, would start having weird ideas on what they will do. I mean like some media theories we learnt, I agree that media do influence to a certain extent, our actions and the way we think. I mean, after watching too much bimbo shows, you will tend to suddenly speak and act like them. I dun mean like u become TOTALLY brainless or a zombie devoid of your own thoughts but it jus becomes part of you... the cultivation theory or something along those lines la... (Shit I need to study for my NM2101 real bad haha not even sure what I'm saying is correct or not... the only theory I know is the framing theory...)

Ohkay.. so as i was sayin, porn might act as an outlet for people but it might also lead to real physical sexual attacks on people. Furthermore, children are so young and vulnerable, the more we should protect them from such predators. Hence I agree tat Japan should take a stand and ban possession of all child pornographic material, even if the images are not of real children.

So yes fyi I'm so dead this week, I have this NM3210 Cybercrime project due next tues (I so dunno how to do this project!!! so stress! I feel like i'm writing a summary which is not the case for a research paper!!!), A Film and History assignment due this Fri 12noon and NM2216 and NM3210 tutorial assignments to do by fri as well... Not to mention I gotta do research or something for my NM2101 project as well... and my NM3223 exhibition this week!!! So NO TIME!!! I got an interview on sat morning, Jiamin's Bday on sat nite! (havent buy her present yet!!!) (thank god I said I'm quitting cheerleading if not it would be worst... totally cram to the max!)

Luckily I am going to watch the free Max Payne movie screening tonight with my banana!!! haha (Ok after all these porn things i just realised how inappropriate that sounds...) haha I think I wrote a mini essay already!

Oh haha I'm also now super into Christina Aguilera's Keep Getting Better song and Tokio Hotel's Don't Jump (an emo song! haha ok I've been listening to them for awhile already but I jus wanted to mention it cos they are not very mainstream now...)

DANCING KING!

CHIQUITITA TELL ME THE TRUTH!!!

Ohhh... MAMA MIA is so nice!!! The movie is so cheesy fun! haha Would love to watch it again cos (not blaming anyone in particular) i missed the first song... The movie wasnt all that nice, I mean there were scenes that were so cheesy it made Epic Movie look nice! They were like nachos swimming in a pool of hot melted cheese! So sick...

But the songs on the other hand are marvellous! Was supposed to watch it with JX but was too emo-ish to go watch... so now I found LZ to watch it with! haha Such a nice happy show... Meryl Streep is so pretty and she sure can sing! Pierce Brosnan on the other hand looked super uncomfortable singing haha and he sounded weird...

Hey STACEY!!! This movie makes me wanna audition for ur tat musical film thing! haha

So ya after burning the entire Abba's Greastest Hits into my green ipod, I'm now listening and singing to it like Donna and the Dynamites! VOULEZ VOUS!!!

Oh after the movie, I went clubbing with Vicky and her bowling frens! Who are all so RICH and FUN!!! haha It was an insane nite... other than going Phuture with strangers, I met more strangers there! haha so weird! meet me and I would gladly tell you my drama story!!! haha

if not here it is!!!

Like stars collide in outer space, our gaze intertwined on the dance floor beneath the shimmering neon lights, the loud banging music, the sweaty vulturous gal hungry guys, and alcohol intoxication, we were pulled to each other like a magnet...

haha ok... awkward...

Shit... so many things r not done and here i am talking crap ok bye!

The Dark Knight

haha I like this photo on top cos I think I look skinny in them! haha

THE DARK KNIGHT ROCK!!!

Attention Joanna: Proceed with caution when reading this entry for it is gonna be about The Dark Knight... I hope I didn't reveal anything about the movie just commenting on the characters n stuff... I dun think I mentioned anything about certain scenes or something in the movie so I think it should be ok for u but jus informing u cos u r watching the movie only on THURSDAY!!! which is so long!

OMG! The Dark Knight is seriously damn freaking super duper MAY-jorly SPLENDID!!! So nice la! The entire 2.5 hours are totally worth the money and it didn't feel too long! It leaves u wanting more! hmm ok maybe for me only la but seriously it's a truly amazing movie...

I love the new Batman movies cos their interpretation of Batman is jus so cool! It is like it is possible! Unlike other superhero movies like Spiderman or Superman where they have super powers and face super power foes, Batman faces normal people who are evil due to the evils of society! Which makes it so damn freaking cool!

The Joker acted by the late Heath Ledger is jus AWESOME! He totally owned Batman man... Stole the show... And another favourite character is Harvey Dent who later turned into Two-Face! Never really liked this obsessive compulsive behaviour character in the Batman cartoons or movies who has a thing for flipping coins... But in this movie everything changed! His story is jus awesome! They gave him a legit and relatively well reason to flip his coin to decide his choice of actions! And the scar is jus awesome... Love their interpretation of the entire movie and the characters jus awesome...

LOVE THE SHOW!!! However Batman jus seemed so boring compared to the two villians haha always so broody and conflicted... well he does have his cool emo moments which is philosophical as well... but the Joker's and Two-Face's jus seemed much better... Another thing I liked about this show is the time line involved is so close to the first movie! Which, to me, is kinda cool! It seemed more of a continuation rather than another movie set later after fighting normal foes and now another crazy psychotic mass killing monster is on the lose... I dunnoe what I am saying but I hope u understand cos I am jus amazed and in awe with the show I LIKE!!!

Hmm I have yet to draw anything for the Swakoo tee but I kinda have an idea what I wanna draw jus waiting for the and moment when I have the time to pick the pencil up and draw on an empty part of my already very filled sketch book... I need a new sketch book haha...

Ok this is my new pair of Armani shades! Bcos of this I'm officially BROKE!!!

Oh one more thing, I jus saw the entire mtv for the cheerleader in Heroes u know? Claire Bennet? Hayden Panettiere? Anyways she jus realised her new single backed by Candies (an American clothes brand) the song is mediocre but she is damn PRETTY INSIDE!!! haha I have a feeling I might grow to like the song... shit another trashy song... gotta get them out of my system man...

K ciao!

LATEST: Oh ya I forot to mention I saw Betty Benji in the theatres while the credits were rolling for the Dark Knight! He was with a group of young Jokers (they painted their faces and I wish I did too! haha it would have been so much fun!) when he saw me lookin back haha

Lost

Just finished with the season finale of LOST season 3 and it's so BORING!!! So much mystery and secret and well I suppose those who are LOST viewers would either know or seen the finale and those the rest would be those who don't care what happened to the cast of LOST... (wise decision to give up on the show cos it's so draggy)

Anyways the show apparently showed us a glimpse of the future and Jack (the super boring main lead) is a junkie with no life... the last few moments of the show is supposed to be those *SUPER LOUD AND LOG GASP* moment but apparently it didn't work on me cos I was jus simply going through the motion of finishing the show man... just want to know what's up with the stupid ISLAND!!!

And I wonder if you all might like my song selections below haha hope they are nice... I am going for the more groovy beat kinda songs so ya'll rawk your world!!! Listen the song 'No more' by Heidi Montag! she might be an attention whore but this song is awkwardly nice! haha not sure if ya'll know her or not... hmmm..
