Then i remembered.
It was 6 years ago, when i was ten years old. At that time, my grandmom and grandad were still living in my house lah.
So there i was, in the kitchen, kpoing around while my Grandma and mom were cooking. I can still remember myself perched on the stool at the corner, soaking in the smells and asking questions:
"Whats that?"
"What does it do?"
"Can i help?"
Of course, in much broken Malay.
Then i got thirsty, so i got up. I moved to the sink, grabbed hold of a grey plastic cup, and poured myself Teh Susu from the tumbler.
As i was happily sipping my drink,
(Just like this guy, just that i'm a girl, i was bigger, and the cup is grey)
i suddenly noticed something poking at my nose. Of course, i couldnt see anything (it was Teh Susu remember). Then after i have drunk like 60% of the cup,
THIS stared me staight in the eye.
As a Primary 4 girl who is very terrified of creepy crawlies, i shouted at the top of my lungs, flung the cup into the air, the Teh Susu splashing into foodstuffs, and ran bawling to my mom.
Hahaha. Classic.
So now i have this phobia of cockroaches and cups from sinks. Before i drink, i check the cup twice.
If i buy drinks from foodstalls (those which doesnt look THAT hygienic), i poke my straw around to check if any beings will crawl out.
haha. Oh well. At least i didnt swallow that damn thing.
