I'm currently staring at the screen of my labtop.
Wondering what I'm doing at home on a Friday Night.
Nope.I'm not broke anymore.

And nope.Someone did ask me to go out.
I haven't been abandoned by society.
Hah.

Eric,Red and Vernia are probably singing their asses off at some ktv.
And this is gonna be the first in a long time that I'm not joning them.
Somehow,I simply didn't find the idea of ktv appealing at all tonight.
And this in itself is already very strange.

However,that's not the main reason.
The real problem is the recent episode with the house's female ogre.
Really wanna avoid clashing with her.
NOT BECAUSE I'M AFRAID OR WHAT.
It's more like I'm too lazy to wanna go into a confrontation.

Still.Something's wrong with me though.
Not wanting to go and sing.

........

It's gonna be my Semestral Exams in 2 weeks.
Needless to say I'm totally not prepared.
Or rather,should I say I didn't have time to start preparing.
The past few days have been spent rushing projects and reports.
Life was so damn hectic and repeatitive....
That I didn't realise just how bored I was feeling sub-consciously.

Until this very moment.
Honestly.I dunno what I can do to entertain myself.
Before I begin tearing my hair out.

I've recently finished the last anime series that I haven't watched.
So there's kinda like NOTHING to do at all?
Not in the mood for studying
Yet.

..................

Talking about anime.
The name of the one I just finished is called Jigoku Shoujou.
Or Hell Girl in English.
This anime is damn interesting and though provoking I must say.
Firstly.It starts off not having much of a storyline.
Becuase every episode is a story about a different person.
The theme is similar however.
There is always an oppressor.And a person being oppressed.
In short a bully and a victim.

Now if the victim wishes to take revenge against her oppressor.She'll simply have to access the "Hotline to Hell" at midnight and enter the name of her oppressor.Once she does that, the Hell Girl will appear in front of her and give her a straw doll with a red string tied around it's neck.Then, she'll begin to give her famous lecture that she gives in every episode to he person,telling him or her how she can help exact their vengeance on their oppressors but at a cost.And that is if they ever decide to send their oppressors to hell and untie the red string, they'll enter a contract with her and how when they die, their souls will be brought to the pits of hell as well.

Well.When I first started watching the anime.
I really thought the way the Hell Girl spoke and the words she used were really cool.

"When one person is cursed.Two graves are dug."

I mean.HOW COOL IS THAT?
BUT.After listening to the same words over and over again for about 15 episodes.
I almost wanted to send e ole girl down to hell myself.
LOl.But that aside.
I felt that this dark anime really teaches people something.
And that is vengeance only brings about pain and suffering.
Despite what one may think.
But.The more important thing is.

Deliberate cruelty is unforgivable.(Kudos to Street Car)

Do not ever torment other people.
Be it for enjoyment or for self protection.
Because I can tell you.
Retribution is very real.
What goes around comes around.
You definitely reap what you sow.
Even for the free thinkers out there.
Believe in karma.

And.An interesting thing to note is that.
In every episode, the victim still decides to pull the string in the end.
Depsite knowing the horrible consequences.
You may argue that this will only happen inside an anime.
But I really think otherwise.
What...is becoming of our world?
May God have mercy.
On the degrading human condition.

............

Man there really is something wrong with me today.
I seem to be really "philosophical" today.
Bored to nuts I guess.

Well.Before I end off though.I'll leave you guys with a sentence from the anime.
As a reminder.

"Pitiful shadow cloaked in darkness.Thy actions cause men pain and suffering.Thy hollow soul drowns in thy sins."

"How would you like to see what death is like?"
