A scream could be heard from my room.... Mother instinct...quickly got up and rushed inside...
After snapping a picture of this beautiful insect, I took a broom.. tried to reach sweep it away from the ceiling but couldnt... I was "too tall" ...darn... pulled up a stool to reach it... another darn!! Why am I so short one! My girl was laughing at one corner already by then... I said, "hey, laugh what, u and i, almost the same, OK?"
Eventually a chair has to be brought... the dragonfly was just waiting to be swept away.. and out it went to another corner of the ceiling outside my room... Peace at last!
haiyah...it was just a dragonfly ma...
what was there to scream?
but give me a cockroach, i will faint!!

Wakakakakakakaka darn! I AM A SHORT PERSON TOO! so i know how it feels... hahahaha oh man... sometimes its really suck to be short, especially when your a guy T_T
ReplyDeletecloser to earth, more healthy. LOL.
ReplyDeleteSame like u, dragonfly, I'm ok. Coackroach, I'll scream my lungs out. :D Quite inconvenient to be short hor. I hv to use a stool when I hang out the laundry. hahaha
ReplyDeleteDragonfly still Ok for me,if lizard, I sure will jump and run till nowhere liao.
ReplyDeleteDragonfly no scared, but cockroach esp those can terbang ones, I really screamed, then use Sheildtox and they are gone. He..He..
ReplyDeletedaniel: dont worry.. they said shorter people are always smarter.. hahahaa...
ReplyDeletegab: good quote!
slavemom: when i was in my BIL house, i used to take a stool too.. hahaha...
mery: lizard i m not scared..cockroach i m very scared till pengsan!
jessie, i can shake hands with u !!
ReplyDeleteboth sama-sama 'tall'!
ReplyDeletei don't mind dragonfly but not bee n beetle..i would run away :)
ReplyDeleteI am always aware of being 'tall'...talking about always in the field with a bunch of taller players..sometimes kena kasi ketawa lagi...=.=
ReplyDeleteBeing short has it's advantages! You don't have as far to bend down and will probably get less back problems. It is spiders I'm terrified of, and they are all coming in from the chilly weather now.
ReplyDeleteyou are such a loving mom. so sweet to come to the rescue and trying to be tall at the same time, haha.
ReplyDeleteAiyor...dragon fly also scared. Cockroach also...nothing to be scared about. Just get Ridsect and spray... LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Lizard...also can spray. But have to remove when dead - will become very smelly.
ReplyDeleteI usually just catch it with my fingers and let it out of the room.
ReplyDeleteBut if it is a cockroach, then roll up a magazine or a newspaper and slam to crash it! Hahaha!
PS: Regarding your question, that cruise ship's pic was taken by me. I didn't go on a cruise not my cup of tea. ocean is a scary place.
chris: both walking tall also! hahaa..
ReplyDeletewenn: now i got to swap anything.. no heroes around at times..
angelbear: wah..u tall ah.. envy!
ginny: what a nice consolation!!
tuti: either one of us have to do it..no choice.. hahaha..
stp: aiyah..u man man ma.. we ladies sure scared of this and that..sure need a man's protection! :p
aishiang: i hope i dont have to squash anything.. cleaning up is a problem.. yucks!!
hey i also scared of ocean one!
Aiyo... dragonfly only... why wanna chase away? They're so pretty... I used to chase them in the field when I was young... :P
ReplyDeleteClaire: reading ur post make me fust this morning! Another lizard is inside my car! What the heck..his doing in my car! A few months it has been a lizard stays in my car d..now what! again!
ReplyDeletecleff: that was why i swept it away only.. didnt squash the fella.. hahaha..
ReplyDeleteangeline: gosh.. making babies inside your car? maybe it is romantic in there.. with perfume and all.. hahaha... yes, in a month or what, u got more babies inside!! gosh.. better spray...
LOL! Should ask me to help! I think I can reach the ceiling (with the broom) without any stool. hehehee
ReplyDeleteGod made each n everyone of us special =)
ReplyDeletesweetwitch: so..u must be much taller than both of us.. heheee..
ReplyDeleterachel: Amen to that.. we r uniquely created.. :)
Chamzz...we have the same faith too..hahah..SO my hub bought a lot of stools at home..scare i cannot reach high here and there..sigh!!
ReplyDeleteYa, you just reminded me of my own suffering in silence, when i was in school (form five) i was the shortest ( i mean among the shortest) in the class,,friends laughed at me a lot of time. i got very envious of them, they got to go party, but they never invited me, they thought that i was up to their mark,, hahahahah..
ReplyDeleteyou know something, My Jovial is going through what i went through as well, he is the shortest in the class now, and i know how it feels like,therefore i have to boost his self confidence so much,,,, hahahah
by the way i am 5'7" ....i think 2" short to Tom Cruise,, so i am Tom Kurus
hahahahhahahahahahha!
ReplyDeleteling: u r not short la.. :)
ReplyDeleteeugene: u r 5'7"? so u grew up later than the others.. yeah, yr son follows after u then.. yeah, some are slower than the others..
LOL :D
ReplyDeleteBut some people memang afraid of insects. for me, I'm afraid of cockroach!
hayley, me too!! me too!!!!
ReplyDeletehaha, i'm also the screaming type, and can't stand to be on the same floor or within 5 feet radius of cockroaches.. dragonfly i'm still ok, but NOT NOT NOT cockroaches or lizards... any of such that dare appear in my house will DIE (if hubs around)
ReplyDeleteirene, what 5 feet radius?? i will lock myself in the room away from the cockroach outside!
ReplyDeleteI think each n everyone has their own specialty and we people are really perfect, thanks to God...
ReplyDeletesuzzane, yes.. we are indeed blessed.. thanks to God..
ReplyDeleteI remembered I like to catch dragonfly during my childhood time. I will use a string to tie on its tail and fly it in the air and later pull it down, very cruel hor:-)
ReplyDeleteSharp tools make good work.
