CAUTION:
Dangerous secret in the colored straws
Posted Feb 16, 2008 by Hannie
Horrible story of mine goes back to year 2005 March.
I ordered a Club Sandwich and a Sprite in a restaurant somewhere in Manila
When I finished half of the sandwich I sipped a sprite.
But it didn’t taste like an ordinary sprite I used to drink.
So I sipped once more, but it still tasted the same.
It tasted like a sprite mixed with some kind of oil.
I called the clerk and asked him if the sprite was expired. He said it was just delivered today.
So I asked him to taste it. Then he also found that something was wrong with it.
Both of us were wondering for a while. Then I got to look inside the straw.
There were a lot of tiny black round things that looked like eggs
So I cut the middle of the straw lengthwise to have a better look.
Yuck. There were a lot of tiny black round things in it.
I suppose they were eggs of cockroach. About 1000 eggs were there.
Then I began to check all the other straws in the straws case one by one.
Almost all of them contained black eggs that seemed to be either the cockroach eggs or excretions.
After the incident I began to check all the straws in the restaurants and fast food chains that I had gone to.
Almost of all the straws contained the same black eggs.
Especially the darker the colors of straws, the more black eggs were found.
In black straws, extreme amount of black eggs were found.
It was found out that it ¡s because the cockroaches live (hatch eggs and excrete) in the dark places.

That’s Oh My God! what in the world is all about that? speaking of cleanliness here …???????
The prices of foods are high, the city is polluted, a lot of corruptions,a lot of people have no permanent jobs…Is there still a chance for the Philippines to change ??? Let’s just pray that somehow,someday,it will change…….
Anyways, the Japanese vocabulary is now open for viewing … I started with the everyday use of greetings and maybe in one week, you will learn those …I’ll be updating that page every week so visit it once in a while… you can request some particular topic if you’re really interested to learn.For more info and details,check out my navigation on the left side…

Anyways, do you believe in superstitions?? In Japan, there are certain things one does not do because they are thought to cause bad luck. here are some examples:
show ▼
the number four
the number four is considered inauspicious because it is pronounced the same word as death {shi}.Therefore, one should not make presents that consists of four pieces,etc. In some hotels and hospitals, the room number four is skipped…
black cat
There are also some inported superstition such as the believe that black cats crossing the street in front of you will cause bad luck.
stick chopsticks into the rice
Do not stick your chopsticks into your food generally,but especially into the rice,because only iat funerals, chopsticks are stuck into the rice which is put onto the altar
give food from chopstick to chopstick
This is only done with the bones of the cremated body at funerals.
sleeping towards the north
do not sleep towards the north because bodies are laid down like that
Funeral car
if a funeral car passes, you should hide your thumb
cut nails at night
if you cut your nails at night, you will not be with your parents when they die
lie down after eating
if you lie down immediately after eating, you will become a cow
whistle in the night
if you whistle in the night, a snake will come to you..
How about you?? do you know any superstition? hmmmm,

I’ll share a creepy story that happened to me 2 years ago…

I have a friend who’s like my elder sister who lives in our house for a vacation.call her Mia.Every morning,she loves to cook breakfast for us and she is a cheerful lady…She always smile to you and she’s very talkative hahaha..oh, i miss her …
when i go out of the house to go shopping, i always let her know that i am leaving the house and say buhbye before i leave, and she always have this cute smile waving her “buhbye” hands while saying itte rasshai in a genki way…
One morning at around 10 am, i was so in a hurry to meet my friends in Shibuya 109 ..when i go down from my room, i saw Mia cooking…
me: ohayo mia chan, kaimono suru kara ne, itte kimasu….{good morning Mia, i’ll go shopping ok.}
Mia: {not facing to me and busy slicing veggies} itte rasshai…{with a very low voice} {OK}
I was wondering why she didn’t look at me and smile..like she does…I was wondering if she is not in the mood or if she has problem…so i went out and had shopping..I had fun that day with my friends.
When i got home late at night, Mia and our other friends are there in the living room chatting and laughing ..
Mia and other friends: Yesha chan,konbanwa doko itta no? matteta yo..:) {Yesha chan,good evening! where have you been?weve been waitin for you 
}
me: konbanwa, kaimono shita yo.. {good evening. I went shopping…}
then, i talked to Mia ..
me: ne, Mia chan are you mad at me?did i do something wrong this morning??
She was wondering what am i talking about then i tell her what happened this morning,
Mia: HUH!!! I WASN’T HERE THAT TIME, I WAS WITH YUKI CHAN,WE WENT TO THE SALON AT AROUND 9 AM.AND GET BACK AT AROUND 7 PM.{both talking in Japanese}
OH MY GOD!!! i was asking her who was that???so creepy, because its really her… Her hair,her clothes and everything….
the good thing is i don’t come near her ..what if i tap her at her shoulder and ask…., ooohh,,i don’t wanna see her face..
i was so afraid that time…this is just one of so many scary experiences…
