The Opera Populaire

B4 that, some not so good news for e peeps missing me on e other side of e ocean. E planes to S'pore r very packed this week and so I'm really praying that God gives me a place to go back on Sun, or at least Sat. Do contain ur longing for me yeah? Hahahaha :p

Ok back to e entry proper. Was preparing to mop e floor yesterday after a hiatus of close to a week (hehehe..sorry, not that I meant to shirk responsibility as a 1st class housekeeper hahaha). I knew that there was this pail where my Mom had been soaking a rug for a long time. As I went inside that tiny bathroom where we kept it and where we only go if we need to take water to mop e floor, I glanced at e pail and saw tiny flecks of black things on e rug, submerged in e water! At 1st I thot they were some bits of fibre from e rug, but on closer look, I realized!!!!!! They were mosquito larvae!!!!!!!! Breeding inside e stagnant water!!!!!!!!!!!!! Clinging onto e submerged rug like a rock or something! OOOh my goodness! OOh my goodness! Euw! Yucks! Yucks! A million yucks!

So I had to reach into e pail, pull out e freaking rug and rinse it under running water. Then, I chucked it into e washing machine, where it was finally cleaned. Urgh! Ok lah, it could have been much worse. I would have died if it had been a frog inside rather than mosquito larvae.
