internet, the next scary thing.

from internet 'wolves' to celebrity gossip to edison's gallery of hoo-haa to the overly exposed zhang ziyi sun-bathing topless. the internet has indeed open many 'doors' hur?

the mischievous me would of course get a glimpse into these red hot headlines. like who wouldn't eh? haha. okies..not to sound pervy or anything, but it is an issue that the media industry and fans are going to face.

nude beaches are nothing to many people in this world. seeing each other in their full glory seems acceptable. however certain cultures would definitely have their customs and rules. i respect that. however, shouldn't the conservative ones respect the culture of the less conservative ones as well? isn't such things vice versa?

I pity the fact that this asia star is being hushed upon by chinese fans and also the media. although a star has no privacy, does it mean that everything they do must be reported and always tainted ( other than the good things )? i am a media student and of course i understand that the media survives on such news, especially in the current context. this is a gossip world?!

although stars are expected to be role models, they need their own private time and space right? the news made her sound as if she abandoned her own roots and left for another different life. as a star, one definitely has to adapt to the different cultures he or she is exposed to, no? my classes in cross cultural communication teaches us the importance of respecting and learning one another's culture. okies, lame but should this be made compulsory for the world?

people, we are globalising! for god's sake, please do not enforce your own rules and customs on others just because you have the same roots. we adapt and change differently. no two men are the same.

open up...

okies, enough said about this headline news. just felt sorry for her. although i am no fan of hers, but being able to step out of your comfort zone and face the world is one thing to be proud of. i respect that.

internet, the one thing that robs your privacy?! haha. edison had a go at it. lesson learnt for everyone! never keep your personal pictures in your computer! investing in a external hard drive might seem more worthy now?! haha.

cheers to the invention of external storage units!
