I HATE PUCHIS!!!!

puchi = insect

and boy am i glad we dun have half the species here like we have in malaysia..for one thing, i am whooping happy that there are no ants..i hate ants, especially those lil red ones, the really tiny tiny asses with the real painful bite - they are really really annoying becos they especially love to crawl all over my house sofa and the kitchen table and even in my bedroom!! lord, they are everywhere!!! and whenever i go back home and get bitten ( i dunno why but it just seems to be me only - either these ants have something against me or the rest of the house people have adapted to it and developed some kinda immunity against it ), i have all these lil red spots, so much so that my lil sister who is not so lil has named it “7t’s puchikaddi syndrome” literally meaning 7t’s insect bite syndrome..

and dun even get me started on cockroaches..we are like sworn enemies..i hope my future house will be free of cockroaches..just as recent as last week, the babushka finally put some anti-tarakan powder in the kitchen - now the kitchen seems to be free of cockroaches but they seem to have fled to the nearest rooms, like mine..so every morning i get up, i am slamming the slippers against the wall or stomping on that stupid roach..but luckily, the russian roaches, though quite resistant to extreme temperatures, are quite small and unable to fly - not enuff food kot..whereas the ones in malaysia can fly from the kitchen to the other end of the house la, damn it!!!

its annoying to open the window - the small insects are everywhere!!! and this crazy moth is stalking me every night!!! not to mention that huge black moth which just suddenly appeared outta nowhere and scared me to death - really really..i was happily watching a movie and chuckling to meself when it just hit the laptop screen - i almost felt outta the chair!!! somehow i managed to chase it out the window and went to bed, chills all over, wondering what i’d do if it suddenly reappeared and sat on my face..

in form 6, we were supposed to catch insects and preserve them, at least 25 species were required..those were some of the most memorable times of my life..the times spent behind KHS in the jungle, the sungai congkak trip, the ride in the Storm at the back with the breeze rippling thru our hair, the scene with the bees near the tunggul kayu, the frantic scene of the others busy catching butterflies during recess, finding that insect on the road, i dunno wat you call it - it makes this real loud buzzing-horn kinda sound when you press its middle, think it starts with C..

aahh..kinda funny to recall all that..

so now i am busy swatting at these small puchis..

but the good thing is that they are nil during winter so at least i have some peace then..so since its now their mating season and all, let them have a bit of fun la ah..but dun bother me wei, it will be the death of you..

and then i am thinking of some other pests that i would like to take a swipe at too..someday..maybe maybe..
