Bitter-sweet joy...
Finally!!!I went to Tampines Mall yesterday and found the entire series of CardCaptor Sakura!!!It's hard to explain my joy!!!This is the least I can do for the show that saved me from obilivion.Sounds strange right?Let me give you the full picture...
I was exposed to Cannibal Holocaust at a tender age of 7.At that time a person's mind is vulnerable and easy to brainwash.I could remember it's Cannibal Holocaust I watched then...I was still a crybaby who started Primary School then.I could recall the turtle and monkey eating scenes,and the last part where a women was stripped,raped and eaten.How about being exposed to pornography and violence at that age?Soon another cannibal movie entered my life.This time it was Eaten Alive!!!.I felt the urge to kill living things then.I recall I once take a penknife and snatched my skin so much that it turned completely red.Just a hard squeeze and blood will burst out from somewhere.I had no idea where I did that...it felt like a normal thing to do then.At 10 years old...it seems that the penknife and scissors had became an essential part of my life.
Then CCS(Cardcaptor Sakura) was broadcasted.A supposedly over-girly show...somehow I soon became hooked on it.At that time I was having a crush on one of my classmates.With these two...those self-inflict damage stuff soon became boring.But it did not turn out to be a good ending.Even till the end of the PSLE I never revealed my feelings to that girl...and the scenes of romance in CCS just somehow made it harder to say anything.At the start of secondary school...CCS left my life and gore returned...although on a lighter note now.
