I am very brave.

I just caught a cockroach!!!!!!!!!! Not with my bare hands though. With a tupperware. I am very brave but not very very very brave hahaha.

Don't have to ask how my usual reaction to cockroaches is: go eeyer, have the greatest possible distance between the cockroach and myself and ask my dad to help get rid of the pest. But this time nope. Partly because I spotted the cockroach near 2am and the kind me didn't want to wake rocker dad up (and I didn't want him to scold me for sleeping late :\).

BUT!!!!! The Most Important Reason is: THE BLOODY COCKROACH HAD BEEN LURKING AROUND IN THE KITCHEN FOR THE PAST 2 NIGHTS! I first spotted it last night but didn't want to catch it cos I was scared and I didn't want to wake my dad up. Then I didn't see it this morning and I thought heng ah the cockroach went away liao but no!!!!! IT WAS THERE NEAR THE SAME AREA WHERE I SAW IT LAST NIGHT, WHEN I WENT TO THE KITCHEN JUST NOW. So I got really irritated and pissed off and I decided to catch the cockroach myself because hello stupid cockroach I gave you a 生路 last night and you didn't appreciate it and here you are again YOU THINK YOU CAN BULLY LAONIANG AH. Hence I got a tupperware from the cabinet and prepared to strike.

First attempt failed cos I was nervous hehe and I wasn't stealthy enough so the cockroach escaped. It ran across the dining table and perched itself at the edge of the table. Wanted to give up but I just couldn't stand the thought of the cockroach lurking around MY FAVOURITE SNACKS so I tried again. I moved away all the foodstuff near the dining table and stared at the cockroach with its butt facing outwards and prepping myself.

And then I remembered. COCKROACHES CANNOT WALK BACKWARDS!!! So if I attack it from behind and trap it with the tupperware it wouldn't be able to escape!!!!!!!!!!!!! Muahahaha. And so I did just that AND I SUCCEEDED!!!!!!!

I am really very brave. I can do anything now. I WILL BE ABLE TO TACKLE ALL THE EQUITY CASES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS: I know there's a possibility that this cockroach I caught may be a different one from the one I spotted last night and I wouldn't be able to tell anyway but I just want to assume the cockroach is the same one leh cannot meh hahahah.

I don't understand.

How is it that some people can treat death with such cold indifference?
