"ghost"

since man brought it up... i'll fill you readers in with a creepy story...

it was my final year in the uni... moved back to the campus, shared a room on the 23rd floor with a course mate, eleanor... she is a sabahan... and a pretty one indeed... ok, that's not the point...

the two of us got along quite well initially... so we walk to lectures together... and we studied together in the room... it wasn't long before we realise something was wrong with the room... we had "encounters"... there were too many of these "encounters"... and i was freaked out...

for a start, we both love to leave the music on when we study... i had speakers, she had headphones... when we study, we don't face each other, well, not our fault, the tables are facing the wall, so we studied facing the wall, and backing each other... one day, while we were studying, she was humming to some really nice songs, and i had cassettes on, and since she was humming to such nice songs, i thought i'll switch to the radio, because i know very well which station she listens to, radio 4, sorry, those days, the astro stations cannot be heard from sabah... so, i turn off the cassette and turn on to radio 4, i was surprised, it was heavy metal on the station, and trust me, it was not normal for radio 4 to have such songs... so i turned it off, thinking that maybe just maybe she had some other station on... as i was too lazy to turn on the cassette again, i continue reading while the radio was off, and before long, the radio turned itself on again... i was in shock, so, i turned it off, took my book and went to bed instead... and there goes my day... later in the evening, out of curiosity, i asked her which station she was listening to, and she calmly told me "today only radio 4, the songs are great"...

and then there was this other time, we both were studying, and suddenly, there was some sound at the door, and we were sure someone was trying to get it, we looked and it stopped... we starred at each other, didn't say a word, and look back into our books...

and another time, also while we were studying, we heard a knock on the door, and i happily exclaimed "come in" no one was there, so i got up and went to the door, and she shouted, "don't open the door"... i looked at her, and she looked pale, really pale... she said, i have just invite IT into the room, and i was like??? and she started telling me her part of the story... it seemed in the nite, the "thing" has actually told her to open the door... scarry, right... anyway, i am not sure how many more encounters we had, but definitely not a good experience...

eleanor was freaked, and then she moved away, there isn't any other room for me, so i stayed back in that creepy room... and then, after she left, things were a little better... although i'm still freaked, i was getting use to IT's presence...

and then, one day, iris' and man's room had trouble, the fan wasn't working, and since i have a spare bed, man can to sleep in my room, and she survived one night... and the next night, she chose to sleep in her hot and stuffy room...

so, man, if you are reading this, and you want to put your comments about my room and the "thing" feel free to do so...

i was just thinking, maybe i imagined the whole thing up... it was final year, remember? i must be so stressed up trying to get my grades up...
