Separate issue: youths these days..

I just watched this weird short video called 'Youth blog' on channel U.

The story was about this girl who has family problems, school problems and relationship problems..so she turns to this act of cutting herself with a pen knife..thinking that it will make the pain all go away.

Of course, initially, this act works 'wonders' and she's happy for a while. She gets to make friends in school as well cos they all cut themselves..

I think the weirdest part has got to be the scene where she asks her younger sister to cut herself.. when the younger one refuses, she cuts her!! and naturally the younger sister cringes and weeps quietly in pain.. The girl actually goes, 'Yay, I'm finally better at something than her.' ... -_-

But the show had really classic quotes:
1. The ones you love the most have the ability to hurt you the deepest.

2. When I needed help, I hoped that you could be there. But you were not. (Or something along those lines...)

Anyway, the ending was so abrupt.. The father helped her put antiseptic cream on her fresh wounds because the 'feel good' effect had worn off and she was trying to get more 'kick' and started scraping her whole arm with the pen knife like it was someone else's hand.

The moral of the story:

Sleep more, watch less.

Good night! : )
