The one thing you must know about me is definitely the fact that I am **_TERRIFIED_** of roaches, especially the big fat flying ones of course!

By terrified means, I can't even stand the sight of the pictures of roaches on phone and the dead ones that are laying by the street. I gotta tell ya how I hate it when someone tags me on Facebook about roaches bedsheet, roaches bag, roaches hair accessories or roaches cakes/desserts. I literally wanna give them a slap or a punch on their face and erase them from my life.

The reason I'm writing this post today it's because it's like season for their appearances. One night (just a week ago) I had SIX effing roaches in my bathroom, and some eventually wound out in my room because my room and bathroom are attached. But they didn't show up all at once, they crept in one by one. My aunt killed FOUR before she went to bed. Oh, forgot to mention, I live under the roof of my aunt who is my mum's sister in case you're wondering.

Anyway, it was 2am. Uncle and aunt went to bed already. No more roach buster. GOD BLESS MY POOR SOUL. Lo and behold, the 5th one made its grand entrance! That's when I had a meltdown. I was in tear and ran to my cousin who's like 13 years younger than me and told her I can't take it, I just couldn't stay here any minute longer and I need to leave this house like now!

So, I mustered every ounce of courage I have, convert the fear into adrenaline, ran into my room, grabbed everything I need. In the midst of grabbing things, I saw another one in the toilet. I'm pretty sure it's the 6th because the 5th was near my "cupboard" (I don't really have a cupboard, here a picture to give you a picture of how it looks like)

Anyway, long story short, I still thank that "Me" an hour before the meltdown to inform my dear boyfriend to keep the door unlocked just in case I need to escape. That's like the best decision ever made.

I always ask God why did He have to create this awful creature and Noah why did he let them roaches into the ark to ruin my life. Like seriously you two, there are better things to do. It's like these roaches live to freak me out.

Most people couldn't understand my fear of roaches. They feel I'm overreacting. But let me put this straight, you are not me, you don't know what's going through my mind. I even told my friend who saw a ghost in the house that I'd rather sleep by "its" side than with roaches in my room.

Guess I'll never overcome this fear because it just gets worse and worse each year. Can someone please let me know which country is almost roach free and is easy to migrate to for a Malaysian? I will appreciate it very much!!

Here's a puuuuurty cat. Goodnight Steemworld
