U.N. Human Rights Committee takes tough view against Japan over death penalty

If UN is so free, they SHOULD look at the problems of human rights in Thailand, where the government randomly shoot teargas bombs at demonstrators, causing deaths and such injuries (people even lost their legs…)

Anyway, a majority of Japanese are actually positive about death penalty, but then, if you look at it closely, those who are on death row have taken someone’s life. They also do not have the right to do that, so why does the society have no rights in putting them to death?

do you think that the parents of those innocent victims who have been killed by that Akibahara murderer would be satisfied to have been just to sentenced to life….. or that Otaku killer who slayed innocent children!! would just live?? i guess death penalty should be applied to some cases like those two killers …I dont; sympathize killers… but I sympathize those who has to die by their hands.

It is not that I support death penalty, but I do not agree that UN should tackle into this problem.
Why do we need to give respect and rights to a human who had done something so dreadful?
Their actions are already pretty low… so punishment have been done upon them,…
Social elimination…..to avoid social pollution….

I was reading through The Nation website and found an extremely interesting opinion of TTT. (Thaksin the Traitor.

As you should know I am highly educated, I despise this man alot. And this Writing pretty much reflects on my opinions as well….

(more…)

I have been wondering all this year since I came to Sydney, took my Masters, wondering… “What is next” for me.

Now, I have to think hard. This is indeed my last week for Masters, preparing for my last essay….
I wonder what I could do with my honourable degree.
First of all, I wanted to do something I like! But what is it?
How can I head off to Japan when I could not speak the language?
What I plan is to study the language, and then get a scholarship.
If I fail, i will try until this dream shall be true!

I wanna be an anthropologist and researches on Contemp Japan!
But then……. would that be something………too high for me to reach?

I am sick and tired sometimes, of being a human.
Why do i need to always be always thinking what my nest step will be??
Koalas does not need to think which tree they would climb up to, or how high they want to be….
bUT HUMANS are quite unique..

Anyway…….I will update later… Still in confusion of my sad sad life.

Well…. Apparently, NEWS have been releasing 3 singles so far, this year.

Taiyou Namida, SummerTime and Happy Birthday.

I guess Johnny-sama, or Mary-sama should release more singles for NEWS.
Why?

Apparently, DBSK has reached their 4th single on Oricon Chart.
Because they (as in DBSK and JE) probably will rule every single singles they have on charts,
It sometimes is not right to say that DBSK is now more popular then NEWS in Japan.
Keep in mind that they only release 3 per year. Arashi gonna have a new single too, so you might expect what will happen.

Anyway, you also ought to know Tegomasu also made it up to the charts.
You may include that it is a square then. Since Tegomasu is a big part of NEWS.

But I still wonder.
Why does really good music like Alice Nine never really get first, when their music is so good?
Mainly, it is because it is not pop, and rock has a smaller fan base.
Yep, I would have say Alice Nine has great great music.
NEWS has good music, good for chilling, dancing, sulking and making my smiles
(Tesshi’s voice rocks)

Music is still music.
Congrats to all who reach to the Oricon!
and Johnny-sama…… 3/3 is equals to 4/4 because it makes one whole
to make it 4/4, means another single for NEWS!!!

I am waiting for the album as I speak.

You may heard of the Japanese term of the anti-social being who locked himself in the room, and does not want any social interaction with anyone. He entirely creates a world of his own, being by himself, being who he is or wanted to be…..Just that way. A Hikkikomori.

What lies in that reason of him being this way? Is he too lazy to get out of his room?
Is he too afraid of the outside world?
Those may share some possibilities, but the only main reason that may be the most relevant is how social expectations pushes them into a corner, making them the way they are.

Social expectations.
Society expects you to go great on your studies.
Expects you to have a good career>
Expects you to behave disciplined.
Expects you with this and that. Not does society only pressure you.
People around you. There are so so so many things that are forced upon you,
You sometimes have no space to breathe.
Does anyone understands them?

Probably, people who see the hikkikomori as someone who rejects society and they are a problem in the society. But why not examine why they are this way?
Social expectations have made humans feel repressed and would be discriminated if they stick out too much, or show too much difference.Taken in an interest that someone else finds it disgusting.
Society never accepts if you are a bit different, society only wants to stryucture you the way it structure anyone else. That anyone else which is a majority would then play roles as the society to put pressure on them.

If they would have a space to breath, a voice to reach out…. I am sure these problems won;t exist…

If only society accepts of different people in our world…..
Accepts of people’s opinions and understand them by wearing their shoes.
I guess …….. nothing dreadful as this will happen.

You may ask why do I think I know all these feelings?
Well, I have to confess… how much I wanted to lock myself in my room too.
To escape from those pressures in life. to escape from expectations
to escape from not being able to give my opinions out because I will be view as a rebel.
But then, I can;t. I still have a life to go on. If I am strong enough, I will stand…. but when I will fall….at anytime….I would not know what i would do either.

There are loads of things that people do, without a reason, without a proof or historicial background, but those were questions to things people did, but very few are willing to ask. Since my blog was meant to express my thoughts. I would use this personal space within the public sphere to put my thoughts out.

First of all, I would like to say, I was a Christian.

Yes. I was. Why did I free myself from religion?
Well then, it is just that when i started to get more rational, I see things with a reason. I have to see things and experience it, in order to understand how it works. Theories to prove, situations to support. This is the truth I believe in.

I am not a person who waits for something to come to me. I search for it by myself. If i keep on waiting and praying, what good does it did for me? Would I get honours for my first degree if I would to only wait for something holy to come and work for me? Well then, I totally saved myself.

Dinosaurs. Yep. The bible doesn;t talk about them right?
I wonder where this slip through. Couldn’t have happened on the sixth day…..Dinosaurs would have eaten any living things around them. If they don;t exist, what are those fossils and ancient bones doing deep deep deep down on the earth? Did someone just magically put it there? Yeah. Maybe someone did. Someone who runs for vice-president still believes that it is a conspiracy theory….dinosaurs are just pure fake. (Ha…)

Oh, another thing. About Lucifer. I want to know what he did apart from being jealous of God, that he had to go down our feet. In my predictions, jealously comes when one has become  authoritarian, or threatens another power.  Yeah. Jealously between men could not have happen because one is more beautiful then another. It happens because of the fear of power. That power, who knows, what kind of power it is like? Foucault said there are several kinds of power right? Machiavelli is one of them.

Well, are we all really siblings?
Man, I dont wanna commit any incest. I rather be with a robot.
I fail to accept on we are all brother and sisters.
I dont want someone i hate to be related to me.

The apple .

If those two did not eat it,
what would be come of us?
Free humans? Is Eden free?
Freedom of choice? Selecting to eat shows a sense that humans has a freedom of choice.
Would we be like orangutans?
Or Kangaroos?

Well, we never know.

If we dont learn to ask questions, we will forever be dumb and stupid, to follow something blindly.
Our teachers in school taught us to ask questions.
What when these questions are being asked, why do I was accused as Lucifer’s child?
I was just trying to be rational, that is all.

angelofdevotion

Yeah Yeah, Whatever, I have heard enough of this lame claims, “won’t step down” and stuff..
I guess this political party is really good in replicating history.

T: I wont step down!

The next moment, he dissolves the government, and a military coup took place a few days later.

PERFECT.

S: I won;t step down!

The next few weeks, he got sacked in starring in some similar program which I called “How to lose a job by cooking”

S2: I won’t step down,

Something will happen again… I could bet my novel with it.

Stepping down by oneself sounds more honourable then getting into trouble and be sacked shamelessly right? If I were those people, I dont have the face to show to humans any more! I would gladly take my own life…. I can;t believe these people could still live being hatred by so many humans.

Yep. Won;t even step down when you have cause a bloody clash between innocent people. Human rights? Is Thailand not signed under a HR treaty to allow demonstrations? Yeah, i hope I won;t hear the “UN is not my father” crap again.

Dear Karl Marx, please help situate the situation in Thailand.
Michel Foucault, any ideas of how governmentality still will work in Thailand?

Thailand is so complex. I dont even wanna go back.
I will be running away for sure. But where?
I guess that depends where my “red thread” leads to.

We need to wait for a while before she comes back. not too long i suppose.
5 months or maybe less… She is already 4 months pregnant!

http://asianfanatics.net/forum/Leah-Dizon-4-months-pregnant-announces-she-s-married-talk590309.html

She had a traditional Japanese wedding too. Click the link to view the whole article. and the pictures
Welll, I just hope all the best for her again.

But yeah. Leah, being a wife in Japan might not always be fairytale like. Ryosaikenbo is still in.Unless her husband is really nice and does the work.

Imagine Leah with her hair all tied up, being in the kitchen, wearing a sundress and a cute pink apron. well…. she still looks perfect. Leah’s curry will taste great.

Her baby should look really pretty…

Gomen ne Ryo-chan. Your dreams are crushed.

This may be the first time I talked about a female idol in mt blog.
Yes. Apparently, she should be talked about because I like her beauty and her great body.
But then that girl is now married. Yep. Tokyograph reported it.

http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-3916

So…. Now… Akanishi who appears with Leah so often in CartoonKattun is no longer a candidate,
And fans can rejoice, same as Ryo who fancies her, Fans of Ryo could also rejoice, but then I won;t rejoice or anything. I do not rejoice when I think Leah might then have an awkward turn in her life.

She is only 22. Well, she can get married, but this is a shotgun marriage, because she is pregnant.
I am concerned about the mistakes that she had brought herself to. Sure enough, it might be a mistake. An idol with a rising career won’t do anything to halt it…..Leah has done it. She still loves the spotlight, and this could be explained as a mistake that is why she chooses to marry.

Well… Leah, dear Leah. I hope all will be well for you.
I do not criticize one when she has fallen to a situation where she had to take the only way out
At least i respect her for keeping the baby.
Hope Leah will be happy, and even if something happens, I hope no one will step on her while she has fallen into the trap hole.

Even though I AM NOT A FAN, just someone who admire her, I will send my wishes to her for good luck.
Hope anti-fans would not bash her that much. She is human after all, she can make mistakes.

edit: Well, The stylist’s name is Bun who is said to resembles Johnny Depp. The video clip has been removed…. apparently… so We will just imagine a Japanese looking Depp-san.
