Arachnaphobia

Posted by Ling on February 9, 2004

Arachnaphobia is defined as an abnormal fear of spiders


Argh!  I hate spiders!  I was tidying up my room on Saturday night (yes, what a riveting weekend), and out of the corner of my eye, I saw something move.

It was a huge freakin’ spider!  It was not the typical black eight-legged freak, but it was brown and it was one of the biggest beasts ever!

I was too scared to scream.  It started to crawl near my slipper and before I could faint, I lifted up my right foot, encased in my cute pink slipper, and proceeded to squish the living daylights of the arachnid.

The corpse laid there for 10 seconds and I just stared at it blankly.

I was in disbelief, because I, Ling Tung, aged 20-something, killed a massive spider without squealing in fear!  An achievement!  Maybe I am growing up at last…

Afterwards, I removed the rotting, squashed up remains with a tissue – WITHOUT wearing any gloves.

I was so proud of myself…but then another 10 seconds lapsed and only then, did I go mental!!!

What have I done??  GROSS!!!!!!!  EEEKS!!!  ARGH!!!

I rushed off and took a shower to cleanse away the essence of the hairy creep.  Never again will that be repeated!  Killing a spider, not taking a shower!
