Gloomy Sunday

Woke up this Sunday morning to find it raining and gloomy. This drop in temperature has lead to me having a drippy nose and me sneezing every few seconds. damn weather. anyways....

there has been much hype about sex education in the news and in the blogging world. sorry it took me quite some time to think about it. apparently there is a debate (if i'm not wrong, sorry haven't been up to date lately) wether anot to revamp sex education in skool or something like that. add to that the recent molest thing going on, people are giving serious thought or rather just creatinga big woo hah! about it. let me tell you why.......

kids or rather teenagers are exploring their sexuality at a very early age. lets face the fact. i personally know a few people who lost their viriginity at a young age of 13! while i was happily watch Days of Lives and listening to Spice Girls. urgh imagine that? (why you looking at me like that? please ah i was a very innocent teen ok) so anyways Sex Ed in secondary skool is kinda redudndant and if they did it in Pri skool it would be tarnishing the innocnet image of childhood. so there lies the conundrum.

its kinda the iceberg effect, here are a few ppl i know who have "fun" on a regular basis while in lower sec, i know for sure there are many more ppl out there. wat i'm trying to say is Sex Ed should be scrapped in skool anyway. wit the internet they could do a portal for kids to go to by themselves to check it out. i mean they have frens and internet wat else do they need? we are still living in an conservative asian culture, lets not kids ourselves with trying to be sexually open. please if we cannot handle such adult issues like oral sex ( which for now has been approved for heteros) and homosexuality (which has not) we are trying to openly educate our youngster about sex? do not make me laugh. we will learn about sex like all good asian kids. BY OURSELVES.

we must been doing it right coz the number of teen pregnancy are not in the thousands and STDs are not rampant. i might be wrong don't quote me on this. its has been going on for generations, the self exploration bits it has since our parents generations and it shall continue on for many generations to come. ok may be not so many, maybe a few more.

well enuff this weeks rants. hah! here's a nice video of a Sarangi. forgice me for mixing classical indian music wit the topic of today's rant. but i love the Sarangi, its the musical instrument that can imitate a person voice. and it has the most wonderful tone. but i'm playing the sitar coz there aren't many Sarangi teachers here. but it is a wonderful instrument. enjoy.

toodles
