Arachnida
Sometimes I wonder how is it possible that I live on the 11th floor, and I still have cockroaches visiting every now and then. As I blog about this, there is a Daddy long legs spasming on my kitchen floor after than overdose of Baygon. This has got to be the most exciting killing of an insect, or in this case Arachinda. It all started when we came home from WCP.

Me: AHHHHH AHHHHHHH %67#@%^#&@^&

Mum: What? Cockroach ah?

Me: NOOOOOO ITS A BLOODY BIG SPIDER!!!!!!!!!!

Mum: Ohhh, I see it. *Takes plastic bag and attempts to catch it. But the spider fell and landed somewhere*

Me: AHHHHHH. OMG JUST TAKE THE BAYGON AND SPRAY IT.


5min later...


Me: OMG I SEE THE THING!!!!!!!!!! LOOK LOOK ON THE CEILING!!!!

Mum goes into the kitchen and sprays the Spider. Spider falls down and starts spasming awhile before it climbs up to a small table. It then crawls back and forth around the table leg showing no signs of defeat or injury. It stays at a stationary position, as if it were mocking me and telling me that my Baygon was of no use.

Me: OMG JUST USE A CLOG AND HIT IT.

Mum: YOU DO IT. Wait, use a newspaper to hit it instead. *handing me a roll copy of TNP)

Me: Hello this won't smash the intestines of the thing!!!!!

Mum: Will lah, just use it.

I was tempted to run over and smacked it till all the guts came out, but I chickened in the end and decided to stare at it from the living room. All I could think of was "DIE LITTLE FUCKER DIE!". True enough after 10min, Spider decided to drop off and spasm on the floor. Hooray! Then I went to spray more Baygon and after 5min, it curled up its leg and lie motionless on the floor.

Mum: Since I killed it, you better clean it up.

Me: NOOOOOOOOO WAY.

Mum: Use those da pao wooden chopstick and pick it up!

Me: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, can I use the broom method?

Mum: You sure? Later the spider eggs get stuck to the broom and when it hatches the baby spiders will be running everywhere.

Me: .......... Must I reallllly do it?

Mum: Hahahaha yes, go take a chopstick.

And so now I'm going to use a chopstick to pick up a spider. WTF.
