Memoirs Of A Geisha

Sometime ago, a guy has asked me, what is the different between, sexy and sluty? My answer was simple. Being sexy is not like we have to dress like ...revealing here and there or, don't wear anything. Sexy is within us even as you wear the cheapest/simplest clothes in town, you have that charisma, you will outstand those who wear Gucci, Chanel or whatsoever brands.

While sluty, Ahem... that is a bit knotty. Men always prefer to deal with a sexy women than a sluty women. Most of the cyber sex website will use the word "SLUT" as their introduction to lure those horny men.

Few days ago I read an articles of Indonesian teenager prostitutes. My heart really go out to them... Singaporeans have been so blessed to be a Singaporean, and yet there are girls was been selling to countries like Batam, as hookers.

There was this girl named Laurel, she was sold by her parent in a brothel in Batam(逼良为娼). Laurel was only 12 years old. Erm........ What was I doing in my 12? Shopping with friends, getting my daily allowance from my parents, playing zero-point and schooling.. Poor Laurel must had been lots hard time. Laurel said estimated she had to "make out" with 300 different men weekly. Gosh!!!!!!!


According to that articles, she was only 12 and been paid for Rp 700,000 = SGD119 for her virgin night. Does a girl/woman virginity worth only this much? Well... SGD119 can't even buy you a LV coin purse, perhaps, we can't use money to balance that. Worst of all that sum of SGD 119 was not given to her, cause they have that kind of MLB (multi level business) that mean all her "salary" are to be hand over to the Mamasa (the pimp) who in turn deducts the amount from her debts and pimp fees.

Apart from it, there are brothel visitors refuse to use condoms, that cause those girls suffer from wrats at their virginals, STI and worst of all AIDS. I really feel for them. What they done to deserve this kind of second class treatments? They do have mothers like us right? Sicko society!

Last Thursday, I had caught this movie: "Memoirs of a Geisha" starring by Zhang Zhiyi, Michelle Yeoh and Gong Li. Allow me to give you a sneak preview of this show. Meaning of Geisha mean 艺妓 they are "entertainment workers" in the Japan. They are really those who we often say 卖艺绝不卖身! and they really respect their job.

Zhang Zhiyi starring as Sayuri means Little Lily , She was been sold by her fisherman dad from a poor village to a town, where all the Geisha belongs. She was selected to settle down at this famous Geisha house as a housemaid, till one day she met a gentleman (don't know what is his name but in the show) he was been addressed as "The Chairman" starring by Ken Watanabe with a group of Geisha who was rushing for a conference meeting stopped by to buy Little Sayuri a cup of sweet ice.
(in Singapore we probably called that as Ice Karcang), as Sayuri was so poor that she barely afford to buy anything so with her innocent thought, she made up her mind that she will lock up her heart for this very man (The Chairman) and she also wanted to be the most famous Geisha in town. Here come with the helped of "Mameha"starring by Michelle Yeoh.

Gong Li is one of the costar in the show named "Hatsumomo"
was jealous with Sayuri's fame and those attraction that she gained, and out of anger she burnt down the whole Geisha house and left the town of Geisha.

Well.... I am not going to tell you the ending, go and get yourself a ticket to watch .. I bet you will find your money worth watching a great show before Chinese New Year.
