Reconnection with the world

I did the most amusing thing today. I actually woke up and took a bath before going to school. o.o

The first thing ever to caught my attention today, was during assembly session, the Shee Foong, held in his hand, the utmost surprise I ever had in time, a living cicada. Cicadas aren't usually found in these parts of the country...and SF actually told me he found it squealing in his house..(in case to those who have no clue to what a cicada is, its a species of bugs in which their cries can be heard to several miles away. is an insect of the order Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha, in the superfamily Cicadoidea. In which their wings are what caught my attention.. There're many species though. The one that SF is held in his palm is similar to this kind.

And thus he was left alone in the centre of a circle, with everybody standing a radius away.. Much intriguing, whenever he presses the cicada, it actually buzzes.. Quite loud actually..making him the centre of attention. It's volume can increase whenever it pleases, usually during it's mating season.. Impressive, when I was young, I read books bout this interesting insect, and this is my first ever sight of a real cicada. Beautiful..

Do not expect highlights of my school.. Basically I have non other but nothing to post about. Its a daily granted association in which it has become my almost daily life.. Today I was kept awake by a book, brought by High Yoong.. Titled "The Unexplained"... So as the title goes, I presume many of you would catch the clue to what's contained inside..Yes, Paranormal Activities and Happenings..

I don't know why. But, this things catch my interest much deeply.. I recall back the time of Form 2, a group of classmates, also intrigued in these sort of talks, we sat in a group and discussed paranormal happenings, sightings, stories, issues, and all nonsense to other ears.. But from this book I read today, I came across some interesting facts I never had came to acknowledge before.

~ The statue of Virgin Mary, her eyes bled real blood.. Forgot what the reason was, it was then analysed to be confirmed as real blood, O4 blood. Not a normal human blood.
~ A brick, levitated 4 feet off the ground, picture was taken by a BBC photographer.. It hung in the air for several hours.
~ Raffles hotel in Singapore is haunted. Many reports of hearing a girl's faint singing of nursery rhymes in dark corners of the hotel.. It is proven that a young girl pupil died in a school that was once build there before Raffles.
~ I understood Poltergiests, a series of unfortunate events happening to a person, most likely in the house. A vase can suddenly break, strange cries about, pans and plates breaking by themselves.. Poltergiests are restless ghosts, the term restless should satisfy your understanding.
~ 140 people died in a school, causing by huge amounts of charcoal raining on it, completely demolishing the school.. It is said, over 40 reports of people to have dreamt about it(precognition), one girl told her mother the night before, "mummy, I dreamt I went to school today, there was no school there, only bunches of black stones." And next day she died in school there.. The mother was rest assured because her daugher had been talkin bout death lately, and she stated she was not afraid of death.
~ Reincarnation, sisters, age 6 to 11, died in a horrible car crash.. The father, premonised that they will be reincarnated. Few years later, the mother was pregnant with twins.. After they were born, the parents recognised the scars on their faces of the car crash.. They had same names. And as they got older, they recalled strange memories, like the names of their dolls, (they even knew which doll belonged to whom). Whats more frightening is, when they're alone, they talk about the car crash, which they should have no knowledge about it. They'd talk about the blood coming out of their mouth, their legs being ran over... But by the age of 5, they'd completely lost memory of what has happened.
~ Abraham Lincoln has a train. After he was assasinated, a train carried his body back to where he was buried. Every year on that day, a phantom train is reported to be seen passing silently through the tracks.. More than 100 sightings were reported every year.
~ The stones at Stonehenge, several stones, weighing several tonnes each, are being built on top of one another. No technology has been able to lift such stones. They are said to be alien.. Once Hippies, built their tents in the middle of the stones, (it was a ring of stones), suddenly, lightning came, struck the stone, a flash of blue light, eerie blue light. 2 people, a farmer and a policeman, witnessed the light, then later after the flash, they went to the ring of stones, nobody was there, only tents on fire.. Some theories say it is another portal to another dimension, and the lightning was the bridge to it.
~ Many hauntings in houses or hotels, mostly involving a dead body in the area, mostly screams, smells, gust of cold wind, indicate the presence of ghosts.
~ There're several types of ghosts, some are benign, means walking, more like gliding, across the ground.. Some are helpful ghosts, giving you a sign of what's to happen in the future..(most people were either saved from death, or to those who did not heed the warning, died) one case of the Titanic, a docter had this vision of a ghost giving him a sign of death by water, he did not heed, and therefore paid the price. This story was given by his psychologist. And there are vengeful ghosts, to return from the dead as spirits to avenge somebody, or to finish something left undone.
~ The Winchester house, is said to be the top 3 most haunted houses in the world. One lady, forgotten her name, ghosts had been appearing to her, giving her messages, that she must keep building more rooms, or she would die. So she hired 24/7 workers, to keep building. A total or 140 room, 2000 doors, and 4500 windows were constructed. On a certain date, she would prepare a meal for 13 people on the table, in which 12 of the guests are ghosts, and she would toll the bell, to have a feast.. Before she died, she passed this on her niece. Now, Winchester house is a tourist attraction.
~ I read some part about Internal Human Combustion. Forgotten the real name.. In which some people, suddenly burst into flames from the inside of the body.. Scientists are still baffled and are unable to provide an explaination.. The legs of a woman was posted in the book, of what remains after the sudden combustion. her top of her body of completely ashes, leaving only her legs with her shoes still on.. Investigation was carried out, no other part of the house was ever caught on fire..no combustible items were found, no matches, lighters, stoves..

There're many more, I just forgotton them, I don't have the book with me now.. Sometimes, we students discover our own theories and share them around, and in fact many of them could be accepted as a hypothesis.. Mostly about alien sightings, and extra-terrestrials.. Till then, the unexplained, could remain as the unexplained..
