pain is good.
---
I think i have a slight sadistic streak in me.
I scratched a mosquito bite on my arm till the skin became raw and i rubbed salt into it just now.
And the pain actually felt ... good !
Actually i have been doing that to my mosquito bites for as long as i could remember , experimenting with different substances that would cause pain to it like chilli padi , lemon juice , hot wax , even nail polish remover.
Of course most people would resort to dabbing it with calamine lotion or mopiko but in my opinion pain definitely takes the itch away.
Its like.. creating a diversion !
How do i put it ..
I don't know what kind of crooked theory i've come up with , but i believe that by deliberately causing pain to somewhere else in your body , it alleviates the pain in the original place ( wtf ? )
So its like if i have a tummyache i will start pinching my arms because its supposed to create a diversion in your mind and the pain can be spread equally among the two places.
I remember there was once i was having a really bad headache and in my daze i banged into my bedroom door and all of a sudden my headache was miraculously cured even though my nose felt like it has just suffered a hammering ( and i'm sure you guys know that the top 3 places to feel pain are the shin , the male crotch and the nose ) .
Not surprisingly the headache made an unwelcome return as the pain in my nose subsided.
Which proves my theory ! ( yeah at my own expense. )
After all the body can only feel that much pain.. right ?
Don't assume that i've become looney should you see me pinching myself madly or biting my lips fervently.
Most probably i'm having a stomachache . =D
No harm trying it out .. Do tell me about the results !!
Yawn.
Can't wait to check out Pulau Ubin later !
submit to mistress fiona or be whipped , you mosquito bite !

p/s : is it just me , or is "nacissistic" become the IN word lately ? I've been noticing alot of people using this word , especially young girls.
"ignore her lah , she's narcissistic"
"i love the mirror so much , i'm narccisstic"
"we are the narccisstic gurlz!"
The incessant usage makes me wanna hurl. Gosh.
Apparently they feel that its a "big" word and that they would appear more intellectual by hanging it on their lips.
Spelling wrong some more. ( i admit , i used to spell it incorrectly as well until Shawn Kukubudus ever so kindly rectified my mistake :P )
The other "big" words that has been used to death
"contradict"
"enlighten"
