Seriously, i have no idea what the people at production are thinking. Ghost stories on tv on a Thursday night? And during hungry ghost month some more. It's usually scary enough on Thursday nights without adding to the fear factor. The new malay cable channel will have a lot to answer for should people write in to complain of nightmares. I don't even need to look at the tv screen to sense the fear. The sounds are scary enough.

Been so restless lately. Wanted to change my blogskin but can't seem to find a nice one. Or rather, one which catches my eye long enough.

Ok, back to ghost stories. Turns out that there's actually something weird going on at my office. The guys were telling me how they heard doors opening when they were talking among themselves, but when they stopped talking, the sounds stopped too. This is on the 6th floor. On the 2nd floor, if you are alone there, they say sometimes you can feel like someone looking at you, at the right corner of the floor. But the image is always at the corner of your eye, and when you turn, you won't be able to see anyone. That's it man. I'm not going to the 2nd floor alone!!!

The ghost story is on tv is so lame and scary at the same time. Scary cuz of the sound effects. Lame cuz the plot is just, well, lame. I mean, would you still stay another minute in the same house with a person whom you know is possessed? And then, when this person walked out of the house with the baby, in the rain, would you just feebly say, "Stop, ma'am, stop" while wringing your hands, but did not even TRY to venture out of the shelter of the house to grab the baby away? And would you actually waited til the said person is out of sight before going back into the house to call the husband down to tell him that his possessed wife has gone?

And don't even get me started on what the present scene is all about. I'd wish they would have better plots. It might be more enjoyable. Or, at the very least, better lines. It would make more sense. I mean, there's more to all these ghost stories than just sinister laughs and heart-stopping sound effects.

I'm wasting my entire post on this stupid show. And now i can't even remember what i originally wanted to write about. Sianz.
