31st March 2006
It is now close or past midnight, I no longer know for I never seem to keep track of time anymore. The past four days I have chionged Da Chang Jin and left one disc to go. For the past four days because of this I have been sleeping when dawn breaks and waking when the sun is on its way westwards. Tonight I promised not to do so again for already my parents not happy :P
Alright. This show, besides depriving me of sleep, has created other evils. I shall elaorate. Have you ever watched a television, a movie or a drama serial perhaps and come an exciting part, a blackout occurs? Well I have undergone a similar case with faulty Chang Jin Dvds... haiz...the folly of borrowing fully manifests in a form of its own evil. Thrice in the middle of important events, either when evil people were about to wreak havoc or when a complicated case is about to come to a conclusion, the disc stops and I am not able to continue. As one DVD contains five episodes, having stopped at the 3rd episode in the DVD means I have to forgo 2.5 epidoes and skip to the next disc, where the exciting events have long past and how those cases were solved I dunno.
Next, early the previous morning at about 6 shall we say, I heard my parents wake, so obviously I had to switch off the lights in my room and lower thr volume in case they discovered that I was still up. So off went the lights and I settled down to watch. And then this beetle comes into the room. Now beetles. You see, for some reason they like to fly with a buzzing noise for a short while then fall down, fly and fall again like a pesky housefly but with less grace and more sound. Me and my sis hate them because er...they cling onto clothing see and will not be as easily scared away as a housefly. I was v unhappy la...as I have always been when I see insects in my room...aiyo if you read War of the Cockroach in my poem website you will know. OK, so this beetle ah...I was afraid it may crawl into my bed or something and already at that time I a bit stress coz something happening to Chang Jin, then this beetle kept striking the Tv in the dark. I could not see it and decided to let it go becoz i said I wouldn't kill anymore insects. But then it boldly landed onto the TV and I could see its every move. Not irritating meh when you watch TV? So i decided to fear no beetle and moved forwards with a determined rage and used index finger and thumb to destroy this fool who dared challenge me by displaying itself upon the screen. Then indeed it was not as great a fool as I thought for when my hands clamped upon it, they felt resistance, something sharp, perhaps its foul legs or something and I cried out once and flung the fool away. By glare of the TV i saw it motionless, the great fool and watched it. By trick of shadows perhaps i saw it move and ran to turn on the lights. Then...it was gone.
I say now that insects I hate, though i do not mind the simple fly, mosqito (Which i trap and kill), small ants, tiny insects, worms and stuff. What I hate most are large flyers like giant moths, cockroaches, annoying beetles and bees. I have been learning to ignore moths, though one time this crazy moth, big like siao came in. I was scared like crap lor...how to sleep with something as big as your palm flying about in the room? So no choice lor I grabbed a pole and chased it and the few times it came close to my head i'm afraid I hollered a bit :P. Once I whacked it like a shuttle cock and it went flying to the computer and lay motionless. I hoped that it died but insects are far more cunning than we perceive them to be. It feigned death for a bit and when I was about to grab a tissue, it fell behind the computer and I never saw it anymore. Then I came back and there sitting on an old and unused printer it was, bold and daring. I grabbed a bag and cautiously captured the fool and flung it out the window. I'm afraid i crushed it in my eagerness to be rid of it. If there are any insect lovers out there, or moth lovers, I am sorry, since moths can be beautfiul creatures. But don't expect me to apologise for cockroach murder. Never! Spiders I will let live as long as they don't wander from their webs or too big. Just no funny stuff like tarantulas and scorpions...for one they are poisonous besides being big and ugly. Oh! oh!! And no giant red ants...wa I've been bitten before and I tell you I'd rather go for acupuncture, which I am already frightened of by the way, thanks to Chang Jin. Hmm...well I guess this is it.
Actually I planned to do an article of great lament for this terrible anticipation for poly but I strayed off and spoke of my hate for insects instead. Why do they never learn and insist on trespassing forbidden grounds? Ok you know what, its getting late and anymore stories on battles between me and the great Insect Empire I will recount here with elaboration and jest I hope :P.
So here it ends. Sian...too bad I can't talk to insects. Make this world a little more fun. haha.
