Freaks & Geeks

I saw an episode of Fear Factor on AXN on Monday, titled Freaks vs Geeks. 4 couples, 2 couples of freaks and 2 couples of geeks. Freaks because they were filled with tattoos and piercings (one of the female had her tongue split), weird hair do and colour, and ya, implants (not the usual kind). Geeks were like, thick glasses, makeup-less,  out of shape body and buttoned clothes..

Fear factor, all this while has been displaying guys with perfect physique and gals with huge implants and flat tummies, u know the ‘perfect’ physique.. makes ppl drool and feel ugly about themselves.. They portray, these ppl as ‘normal’.. Look around us, how many have six packs? and big boobs? And you call this ppl normal?

Whats so freaky about ppl with piercings and tattoos? They are human after all, and its their choice how they wanna decorate themselves. Its their freedom but just because they don’t think or behave like you, doesn’t make them freaks. Same goes for the geeks. So what if they spend most of their time in front of the computer and reading? is it bad? Ppl have fun the way they think is like and brings them happiness.. Like me, i prefer sitting at home surfing the net and watching downloaded movies/series.. So i don’t drink or go clubbing, am i a geek? or a freak to some?

But why do we judge ppl, for the way they are? They are happy with themselves, why do we seclude them? We are after all human. As i watched the Fear Factor, the freaks n geeks were not the bitching, degrading, show offs kind of attitude that we have seen so far on the show, but instead they were quite silent.. the geeks was analyzing everything and using science to help them win while the freaks just played the game with confidence. Victory belonged to the geeks, who used ‘deceptive strides’ to win Kinda cute.. one of the geek participants was in triathlon.. Not bad eh?

Then and now..

Then…

I remember clearly, when i was 8.. My parents, both working, would leave me home alone.. i could go to the shop that was about 150meters away alone, and come home and charge my parents service fee of 20cents for making me walk.. and i could go to the field that was behind my flats or the playground few blocks away alone or with a group of friends and play until the sounds of Azan.. We would cycle around the neighbourhood, play badminton and the best game ‘Rounders’ (I am not sure of the spelling, but its like the game of baseball but more fun!).. it was a time when limited people played computer games and playing outside was more healthy and fun.. In fact, I used to walk to school in the afternoon as from standard one to three was in the afternoon session, and standard four up to six was in the morning.. and sometimes, when i have spent all my pocket money for the day and don’t have cash to take the bus back home, i would walk home.. My school used to be in Section 4, while i lived in Section 2. I will take short cuts, through other blocks and alleys and reach home in 20mins.

 

Now…

My siblings don’t go to the shop which is just below my condo, without being escorted by an adult.. When my siblings go to play at the condo’s playground, they need to be escorted. Where ever they go, they gets escorted.. The place have become so unsafe. Who are we to trust?

We read and hear about gals being raped by their neighbours, by male friends and also by relatives. Regardless how old they could be.. She could be 7 or 70, it makes no difference to some of these beasts.

Take the story of Nurin, its a tragedy.. All the child did was go to a pasar malam in her housing area, she was in her comfort zone..At an area she was familiar with.. Who would ever expect this could happen to a child, of the age of 8?

A child with innocence in her smile,

a twinkle in her eye,

who lead a carefree life..

What did she ever do,

to deserve such death?

A child she was,

who couldn’t differentiate between good and evil,

between wrong or right,

whether the person was lying or sincere..

and thus, making her an easy prey for she is a child..

How sick has the world become,

to do such a torture to a child,

who have yet to see the world

and enjoy life’s greatest joys..

 

Life is very unfair.. The DNA results confirms the victim in the bag was none other than little Nurin Jazlin Jazimin.. They found cucumber and a brinjal in her private parts and she died a very painful death.. there were bruises all over her body, indicating that she was hit and brutally tortured before killing her.. How sick is this person?? What sort of shitty human is he/she who enjoys hearing the screams of a child in pain?? Why on earth did the individual do such a thing to another human being??

From the DNA, its determined that she is Nurin although her father feels otherwise.. Her parents have however insisted on a second DNA testing be made, and this time they are taking her elder sister’s samples as well just to be sure. It is hard for a parent to accept this cruel fate, I don’t blame them. Even i wouldn’t. Not my lovely little gal who was running around the house just a while ago.. No way.. Its very difficult to accept…

On the news earlier, her dad said, that he doesn’t believe that is his daughter. He said his daughter’s hair was so soft, fine and straight where else this gal had course, curly short hair.. He also said that Nurin had straight teeth but the deceased have a gap in her front teeth.. However, Nurin has a scar on her thigh, and the gal, who still we can’t confirm her identity, has a birth mark on her thigh.. Her dad also mentioned that the gal looks like a foreigner, more of a Burmese (Ppl from Myanmar) and she don’t have malay features..

Tragic.

However, this gal could be Nurin. Science never lies. And i doubt there has been an error in the lab. Her dad says she is not his, but science says otherwise.

- Teeth Gap. She is only 8, her bones are soft, and so are her gums. She had gone through so much of pain prior to her death, that she probably clenched her teeth so hard that her teeth moved. Science says, her teeth have yet to grow the roots, so they can be easily moved when there is trauma.

- Her Hair. The psychopathic asshole had probably cut her hair off and the courseness could be caused by burning as in from hair curlers or straighteners or something. That person is so sick.

- Her birth mark. Her dad did say she had a scar on her thigh, which the police could have mistaken it for being a birthmark. Since she was tortured, the scar could have disfigured or because of the swelling it could have misshapen. Thus, making it difficult to determine if the scar/birthmark is Nurin’s.

- Her non Malay looks. Her face was swollen, and dead bodies will change in colour too and also because of the bruising thus making it difficult to identify her nationality. But i wonder why she don’t have a BCG mark since we all get it when we are young and its compulsory for Malaysians……

- Nurin’s height matches the victim. Her dad says the victim is too thin, but what do you expect? The psycho din feed her, and Nurin is having high blood pressure and kidney problems and she requires medication and attention which was ignored by her kidnapper(s). She probably lost a lot of weight because of that..

+++++

When the bag which contained a child was found, it was determined that she had been dead for more than 6 hrs.. It means she was alive when all the search and rescue going on,, her kidnapper knew exactly what was going on.. He knew every individual was looking for her and yet instead of handing her over alive, he kills her and stuff her dead body in a sports bag and dumps it, like it was trash. He could have left her body anywhere, but he chose that particular place for a reason, and at a public place because he wants the body to be found.. He enjoys the attention so much. Sick bastard. And she was kidnapped in a van, meaning he had more than one accomplice.. one had to drive the van, while the other pulls/ forces her in.. Whoever it is, i beg you god, please let this creature be captured. Let him suffer a death that is so painful, n make sure he suffers, and be tortured so that this beast knows, that he can never get away with it..

 

Lets pray for the soul of Nurin Jazlin. Pray that she rest in peace. And may justice be served. God bless.

[Edit] Finally her dad has accepted her and she was buried after the Friday Prayers. What a tragedy it was. What the family is going thru, only they can understand and how they are taking it, we can only send condolences and prayers. It shook the entire nation. It shouldn’t have happened. What bugs me, there were several eyewitnesses that saw the poor child being forced into the van, but nobody, NOBODY did anything about it. Ppl just watched, and when news were out about it, then they realised who she was and reports it.. When you could have done something to prevent it, why didn’t you? Why do we choose the policy of ignoring and minding your own business? Something to learn here. Please people, even though its not your kid, but please help. It could happen to you. Know your neighbours too, It helps. Care for others, as you might just save some lives.

NURIN JAZLIN JAZIMIN – Rest in peace..
