Not Asleep, Still Awake
Thursday, June 30, 2005

Its 2.16 in the morning and I cant go to sleep. Shoot. I think its because tomolo's my last day at work. Im gonna miss the people there. 7 months together. Sigh...

Anyways, I just finished watching this tamil movie. The movie was about this boy, who was the only child. His parents showered him with tons and tons of love and his Mum was his best friend. SO when he was 9, mummy got pregnant and attention got diverted. Actually, at first he was ok with the baby. But when his mum said that he wasnt her best friend anymore and his dad slapped him, he decided to make his baby brother sick coz he was soooo angry at him. His intention was to make him sick, so he took a can of pesticide and sprayed it onto his bro, and accidentally the baby died. Then when the prosecutor questioned him, it was so sad k. The prosecutor went," so tell me, y did u KILL your brother?". What a harsh question to ask a 9 year old... And with a tearful face he went,"Mum din wanna be my best friend anymore and Dad slapped me... Im so sorry Mum, Dad..." It was so heart wrenching! I cried! Awww.. How sad!

But the movie made me realise how soft a child's heart can be. And they absorb things like sponges. Even if you mean something as a joke, they can really take it in seriously and with it embedded in their hearts, they can face difficulties as adults later on in their lives.

Im off to watch some funny flashes at www.funnyparts.com . Go watch Burnt Face Man Part 2. Its hilarious. Haha.
