yes, i am a scaredy cat dear. i ask my mum to sleep with me sometimes. so u cant leave me alone. and please tell me the ghosts are gone.

* actually i think no one likes to stay home alone..he had his friends over when his family went for a holiday. hah , so U 2 too!

anyway, i used to stay here alone for a period of two months. this is quite a scary place but by far the coolest place i have stayed. rather gothic.






a few scary things:

- there was a picture of a rastafarian man with dreadlocks (no, it wasnt bob marley) in the bathroom beside the mirror. after a while i just place a towel over it. coz i couldnt stand looking at him, especially at night.

- sometimes, there would be some weird sound through the door, and i though it was the sound of wind (god knows how come for this apartment on the third floor), and it made me feel unsettled.

-there was a huge mirror at the hallway, and somehow i was imagining that wasn't a real mirror, like it was a hidden videocam for the owner to see the tenants.

- the laundry has to be done at the basement, which was dark, narrow and and has creaky stairs leading to it. a grown up woman, that i thought i was already back then, still imagined that someday frankerstein will jump out from the corner.

- there was a cabinet in the living room. yes, that one above. there werent any drawers or openings on the cabinet. it was black, and made of stone, if i can remember, black marble. for a while couldnt figure out, what the heck that thing was. until one day, i asked my friend to check it out. we look high low and around, and finally found a small button. the black cabinet opens at the top. like a coffin!

- and not so scary. i thought for a while the full length mirror was the type where noone outside could see in..so i was comfortable to walk around in my undies..hahah..but later i found out to my horror it wasnt!

most times, it may just be our imagination getting the better of us. but the place still gave me the creeps then. so i slept with the some lights on, and always then had the quran which i brought by the bedside.
