For those who don't know, I'm now at my 5th semester in Diploma in Hotel Management. It will be my last semester here in Penang, and honestly, I can't hardly wait to get over with it. Don't get me wrong, I've had wonderful times here in UiTM Permatang Pauh. Studying something i love, fun friends, awesome lecturers, fulfilling co-curricular activities, and the whole college away from home experience. But these things really piss me off every time.
To those who don't yet again, I live in a semi stone semi wood shack right beside campus (refer to entry, House). If it wasn't for its convenience, I'd so be outta there like yesterday. Here are some reasons why.
1) Sometime last week, at about 3 AM, while I was not quite comfortably sound asleep, I was rudely awaken by a terrible itch in my back. TERRIBLE. Enough to wake me up in the middle of the night. I wondered how on earth did my back get so darn itchy even though i was sleeping with a shirt on and under a blanket as a cover, with a mosquito coil burning in the room. Curious and frustrated, I took off my shirt to see how bad the mosquito bites were. To my shock, guess what I saw.
Just to be clear, the last picture is my lower back.....not my ass. But FYI, the week before, my rear got mosquito-tacked and left two similar marks on my prized asset. No picture available. These are the hazards I have to deal with. Bless Me.2) Since I first came to Penang, I have been warned time and time again of a particular being. This being is dark, vicious, and comes without warning. It attacks you, and leaves its mark.
The following pictures also may be disturbing to certain viewers. Viewer discretion is advised.
This god forsaken being from hell is known as the Rove Beetle, or better known here by the locals as "CHARLIE".
If you're in Permatang Pauh, around the paddy fields area, you may encounter this damned creature. And if you do come face to face with it, do not, I repeat, DO NOT squish it with your bare hands or any skin surface. The consequences can be devastating.
3) Lastly, in reference to my entry House, the housemates problem is not as bad anymore, even though I have new housemates now. However, the thing about living with other people besides family that I still hate until now, is not being able to do what I want, when I want, in the house. As it is right now, I'm like the only person who tries to keep the house clean enough for human habitation. But the other 6 in my house don't even care. The house can be left sandy and dusty for weeks if I don't sweep it every now and then. The rubbish bin can be packed until it spills out with maggots and yet they can still throw trash in the bin without a tinch of disgust, the house is constantly in a mess with their stuff everywhere, and cleaning up the house even without their help is almost impossible when they are in the house (which is like most of the time) because they would be lying around everywhere.
Sigh. So much dissatisfaction. So little time. More Rants TM next entry (possibly). Stay tuned. Thanks for viewing.
