something strange in my room

Do you people believe in ghosts?

Well I don’t… but something happened to me last night that made me kinda confused..

You see, Emily returned to her hometown yesterday and I was all alone. I went drinking with my friends and got home at about 1am. I then watched some TV and slept at around 2 - 3am.

But in between 3am - 5am, I was crudely awakened by some noise. It was a scratching sound. Something like a jagged fingernail scratching on my pillow… and it was right in front of where I was facing.

I then opened my eyes, and I saw slight movement on the surface of my pillow, as if somebody was repeatedly tucking it from the side. The scratching sound stopped as soon as I opened my eyes long enough.

Unsuspecting of anything, I went back into my sleep. As soon as I close my eyes back for about 10 - 20 seconds, the scratching started again. And I can feel the movement on my pillow - SOMEBODY WAS INDEED SCRATCHING MY PILLOW!

I sat right up to look around, lest it’s a burglar or something… and checked the pillow to see if I can make up any senses out of the mysterious scratching. Somehow at that groggy state of mind, it didn’t occur to me that it could be something paranormal… and I was looking for a velcro patch which might have produced the same noise… or perhaps a curious rodent who thinks my pillow is itchy…

I didn’t find anything and went back to sleep… still, unsuspecting of anything. But when I came to my senses this morning, only then I realized what had happened last night. I told my mom what happened, and she went to consult some religious medium about it.

After checking with the moon, stars and some cosmic force of unknown awesomeness, the religious medium managed to find out… that there was indeed something ‘dirty’ in my room last night. No it wasn’t a Norwegian stripper (not that kind of ‘dirty’). It’s a FUCKING GHOST! Apparently, some stray spirits took liking of me and followed me home, and that scratching that I heard? It was the boogeyman. Or woman. I don’t know.

Supposedly, the medium had activated a spell that SHOULD repel the ‘thing’ away - but he issued me a caution, asking me to be alert in case there’s anymore strange things that may happen tonight… and feedback to him if there’s any.

o_O

I am now in a fucking dilemma as I’m typing this. I told Charles on MSN a moment ago, that I finally understand how my friend Luis felt, when we abandoned him in a haunted hotel room at Singapore a few years ago…

Goddamn!

I hope it’s not going to be a very long night tonight…

    Woi don’t scare me leh. Just now after I did the laundry I heard sounds and saw lights coming from housemate’s bathroom from the outside. Thought he wasn’t coming home tonight. Later picked up my guts and knocked on the door and I went ‘AAaaaaaahhh!’

    Turns out it was him after all. Damn I wouldn’t wanna trade places with you man!

    Damn it was scary. How can you stay so cool when facing that? I happen to experience a laughing sound once, I was scared my shit out of it. But luckily can still sleep after that.

    You pillow got starch izzit?

    Haha. Just kidding bro. Prescriptive pils might help you through night. Maybe then the ‘thing’ got bored because you didn’t reponse to it.

    Before you go to sleep. Make a sign board with other languages as well beside English and paste it on the wall :

    GO BOTHER ELLIOT INSTEAD, HE IS STAYING IN *****

    Personally I recommend getting drunk tonight. That should knock you out and end your worries. If the “ghost” manages to wake you up, then it’s a force to be reckoned with.

    hehe, it’s not scary when you dont know what it is.. but wonder why the ‘ghost’ scratch your pillow. should scratch your butt.. :D or play with your nipples..

  • March 12th, 2006, 11:36 am | #

    Maybe you should try some Falun Gong shit to clear things up :p


  • March 12th, 2006, 12:13 pm | #

    guys, if falun gong is really behind this, then doesn’t that give you an idea how screwed up this organization is? I asked my dick to be sucked… and IT SCRATCHED MY FUCKING PILLOW!!!! WHAT THE FUCK!

    I slept like a baby last night. Man if there really was to be a Norwegian stripper milk-bagging my face, I don’t think I’d be able to take notice. Ahaks!

    I think all blogs should use Michael Ooi’s layout.

    Simple, fast loading, and nice black background that does not hurt the eyes!

    You can’t imagine how painful my eyes get reading blogs of other pages that love using WHITE backgrounds. Hate those sites.

    When i was a kid, my brother and i shared a room so there were 2 beds in the room. One night he was staying over at a friends house and i was awakened by scratching noises on his bed. But i was too dead sleepy to get freaked out so i just fell back asleep.

    Michael, you drool too much lah and maybe it was some insect that came by to search for the stain?

    Nevertheless, the truth is out there somewhere… and they might be watching you…. buahahahaha!

    reminds me of my friend’s story about his friend being followed by a female ghost.

    Apparently the female ghost was humping him every night.

    I guess the good force prevailed, I didn’t encounter anything weird ever since… save for a few occasions where my balls would itch spontaneously (ALL balls would itch at odd intervals, so I dismissed it as a paranormal phenomenon)…

    Well, All I can say is please let some sunshine in your bedroom as well as your living room. From what I see in your photos, you don’t have enough light into your living area. And please make sure that you chant Heart Sutra every night before you went to bed. My experiences with the livind dead is 100x keng chow than what you experienced and believe me…if you don’t get rid of her with chanting, you may have “OH PAN” for quite some time.

    Good Luck!

    chant kama-sutra… ok got it!
