camera phone not

the media have been abuzz with what's stored in kids' phones these days what with almost all phones having camera and video-camera capabilities, the discussion sparked off by a tammy from nanyang polytechnic.

her private video made with her boyfriend was uploaded to the internet and caught on like wildfire. another person seeking her 15 minutes of fame in this age of salacious blogs and reality tv programmes?

unfortunately not. she had lost her phone and the clip had been distributed without her knowledge.

i wonder what is it about the episode are people most aghast with:
* a young polytechnic student, 17, having sex at her age or
* a young polytechnic student, 17, having sex at her age and video-cammed the act or
* a young polytechnic student, 17, having sex at her age, video-cammed the act and carried the clip on her mobile phone everywhere she goes?

gosh, the things youngsters do... it's not what they do but how they have done it without realising the full consequences. that is what that never changes, isn't it?

the follies of youth i guess. something that can only be tempered by age and maturity.

so what do i have on my mobile phone?

nothing to send your pulse racing... unless you like cute puppies. :) most of my pictures are of friends and family, especially my friends' kids. goes to show that i'm old liao... haha...

anyway, my mobile had become a non-camera phone now since i've restored the data rendering my camera function inaccessible. so even if i had wanted to, i'm not technologically equipped for any hanky-panky pictures for now, that is... :P
