"Strange"ly Free.

Oh my goodness........................... . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It's been as Ayane would say, 'fish-ing' long since I've updated this thing. It's so dead! But thanks all for keeping my useless tagboard alive. Credits to shinyee and ayane-chan. =)

Hah, three weeks of exams is over. Over, you hear me? OVER. That would explain mostly why I haven't been updating so much. Sorry~ And oh yeah, it's because I'm lazy too. So....it's not all the exam's fault. Hohoho. Lol.

And I'm sure many would be happy that it's over too. If it hadn't been, you wouldn't even have time to read this post. Hehe, so rejoice, woohoo! =)

Nothing much to say about things during exams, or the studies or such, but I DO, have something to say about last Sunday. The strangest day I've ever had. Strange, would be an intended pun, but you'll see what it means. =)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And so, this is last Sunday. Yeaps, it was the........6th of May. Hohoho, it was a strange day indeed. From morning till the end of the day, it's ultimately......strange.

Why, you ask? Well, first, see........I've been having this recurring dream since a few weeks back. And let me tell you about it first:-

"Imagine, a school like setting, with friends and all. Everything's going fine, and hey, it's school. What can go wrong?? Then-- The skies turn dark and an unholy dark red hue fills the atmosphere. A figure walks into the class, can't see him. It's too dark. You see him in his silhouette, and then-- he turns into demon form, with the wings, and targets someone at random. He's growling, he's snarling, he's hungry. He targeted one of my friends, and he strikes. The dream ends this way, with him devouring one of my friends, while all of us watch. It's not a nice sight. But luckily it ends before I can see anything clearly."

That's how it goes all the time. But then, the dream starts to change after some time. The next few times, everything is the same, but he comes for me. And I....well, get devoured. I kind of feel the pain, and I'll wake up, breathing hard. Well, not that hard, but you get the idea, right?

And so, on that Sunday, it was the same thing. Except, this time....it's this way....:-

"It was the same scene. Classroom, friends, normal stuff. Then, I went to throw rubbish into the rubbish bin at the back of the class. As I approached the bin, the sky turned black again. And this armageddon-like dark red hue filled the atmosphere again. I knew what was coming. The demon is here to eat. I always pray so that he wouldn't come for me.....but it hasn't been working. He saw me. He lunged. Strangely, this time, I ducked, and covered my ears with my palms as protection. Stupid, but it was instinct.......somehow. I felt him tear against my skin, and biting away. I was painful. I prepared to die. Then- the pain stopped. I heard him flap his wings, and he went out of the class. I........didn't die this time. That's STRANGE. I stood up, with my bloody body[literally], and everyone was looking. I could still move despite the pain, but everyone just looked at me. I must've been hideous I thought. I dare not look at myself. But then I felt a certain impulse after getting bitten by that monster. It was like I've broken through something. I've got power. The sky is still crimson, and I walked out of class, despite the looks. I looked at my hands, they were not as battered as my body would be. Then out of curiosity, I directed my hand toward the sky, palm first. I concentrated and tried to do something with my hands. Guess what? Minions flew out of from a hole in the middle of the sky! They were a swarm of black things, and they flew towards me. They burnt halfway through and decomposed just like that. One of the burning ones touched my hands, but I did not feel pain. Perhaps.....these were MY minions? [What the hell? XD] I tried another time, with my other hand. More minions came through, and burnt halfway through too. I touched them, and I was not harmed. I tried with both hands now, then came a huge swarm. After the bulk of them burnt, there were around 2 or 3 that hasn't. They called out to me......, their master. [What?] I didn't hang around much, so I set out to find the demon. On the way, I saw this group of old ladies, going towards somewhere. It's like they knew about the demon. Hmm. Then on the way downstairs, I saw this boy. His uniform was different. It was all black. He looked at me with his eyes. They were...........the same eyes as the demon had. I stared back. He then disappeared into the hallways. I dreaded the worst. It seems that he's planning some armageddon for sure. I went to the.......Koperasi, to arm myself. I took this bolt action gun, which was smaller than rifles, yet, a little bit bigger than pistols. Somehow, I took this piece of junk. Bullets had to fitted into the thing one by one. It's like reloading a stapler. >.< I have vague memory of what happened next, but I remember meeting one of the old ladies, the youngest of them, and she talked to me in BM. She said something about 'powers' and 'demons' along with all the cryptic stuff. And she went into a sanctuary, which would repel the demon. Heh, she knows about it! Then, I hear it again. It's there. It's growling again. It was on the other side of the hallway. I ran downstairs again. I went to the Koperasi to get all the ammo I could muster, but it was nothing much. I only got a few more bullets and that's it. The guy said he was out of that. >.<>

Sorry for wasting your time if you read that. It seems so Power Rangers to me when I think back to it. But the creepy thing is, when I woke up, my hands were.....really on my ears and they were numb. Phew. >.<

It's strange because first, I didn't die this time, and, it's that same recurring dream again. Heh.

Oooh, so then I got out of bed. And well, it was strange again, because my dad's not at home for the weekend. He had something to do at work. =( Everything just felt out of place.

Then, being a Sunday, tomorrow's exam day. But strangely, I wasn't scared. I did not study. ~o~ I went on slacking all the way till my dad came back at....6 PM.

Strangely, he said he wanted to bring us out. O.O Okaaaaaylah, what I complain? Lol. Let's go! But being so late, I though the only place we could get to would be Sunway Pyramid Strangely.......He said wanted to go Mid Valley. O.O!! Okaylah! Let's go~!

On the way there, we were talking about guitars, and guitar shops, and how Mid Valley would not have any. Mind you, it's been like centuries since I've been there. So I don't know. Lol. Then, when we reached there, we walked and walked and we took the escalator up. Up.....up......up.....

GUITAR SHOP!! *o*!!

The first thing I saw behind the windows................oh my god..............all the Epiphone guitars I've only dreamt of seeing. The Les Pauls! The SGs! Those models in all their glory!! ~o~!! There were more inside. So I went inside. XD Wow......you wouldn't believe how orgasmic that place was for me. And then I spotted one guitar.......I pointed, then the shopkeeper said,

"Wanna try?"

"Nah, I'm just looki-"

"Don't look! What's the use if you don't know how it sounds like?"

Ooookay......so, he took that one, and plugged it in for me to play. Oh man, heaven. And then he took another, and another, and another. So many guitars I've tried!!!!!! [Faints] Then I realized, they were all of 1k - 2k plus price tag. God damn. Strangely, my dad did not object of all this mumbo jumbo. You see, I've been asking him for a new guitar for some time now.......XD The shopkeeper kept him occupied by telling him stuff and asking him our budget and all that. I.......just, went on and looked at all the guitars!! My eyes almost popped. XD

Then, STRANGELY. My dad shows signs of approval of purchase. OMG! O.O!! And yes, in short, all went well after that.......and voila! I got my new guitar!! Woooohoooo~!! It's around 1.2-1.3k and yes, it's helluva beauty. Here's a preview:-



If some of you would recognize, yes, that's Emily The Strange. And yes, I have that guitar now. Seriously........pictures don't do it justice. ~o~ I will be posting more pictures next post, which will be an update of my guitar progression. =) It's already 7-8 months now.....or more. Hehe. And yeaps, there's heaps of updates from where I started off. =)

Well, it's been a mighty long post, and it has all been really strange for me because, these things don't happen to me usually. It must've been the will of the gods that day. ^.^ I guess that's all for now I guess? See you next post!
