I have few experiences with spirit or ghosts but I am not afraid of the dark. I never raise my kids believing in ghost or giving them scary tales about this stuff. I know some of you had some stories to tell about encounters of the third kind? I have some stories to tell also- but still it's not enough to scare me of the dark. One thing I am scared in the dark are live people.(bad people hiding in the dark) I am not saying I am that brave or trying to impress you guys. because I am scared of "cockroach" yes- cockroach - gives me creeps and can make me scream my lungs out loud It's weekend again and wish everyone a great weekend (^_^) I have a lunch date with 2 curvy mylotters tomorrow (yeyyyy) jaiho®- going for a date tomorrow :p 4-20-2012 2:49pm Friday PT

I'm also scared of cockroaches!!!!!! I hate them especially when they fly!! It gives me the creep! Let me tell you a story...One time, I got up so early and couldn't get to sleep so I decided to just go out of the room and stay in the living room. I lay down because I wanted to get a few more hours to sleep. Suddenly, I felt something crawling inside my shirt! I suddenly jumped out of the sofa because I was pretty sure that it was a cockroach!!!!! I screamed and kept holding a part of my shirt with the cockroach inside. It went up to my left underarm!!! My parents told me to take off my shirt so I went up the stairs and asked my cousin to unbutton my shirt.. After I took it off, the cockroach just ran!! I screamed again! I forgot that I wasn't wearing anything inside when I took my shirt off!!! ha ha ha ha! That was such a humiliation! HAHAHA I don't like cockroaches!!! They're disgusting creepy crawlies!!

hello expectator, Oh well, you are lucky to have that cockroach crawls inside your shirt while you are at home. I had same experience that is why I really hate those bugs. I was walking with a friend one night when this bug fly and landed at my back and too fast before I could react- the creepy bug crawl inside my shirt and I really jump and screamed trying to shrug off the dirty thing. I was about to take of my shirt when it voluntarily comes out Since then, whenever I saw one, the creepy feeling of that frightful night comes over me (hahahaha) I would rather run than killing it- I am too damn*d scared of those bugs :xx Have a great weekend

hello sj, You can hold them ? yayyyyyyy I can do ghost hunting- me and my son once entered a condemned building that collapsed 20 years ago due to earthquake. It's one of the grandest hotel in my hometown "The Hyatt" hotel. It collapsed last 1990 and left untouched till today. Last year me and my son decided to have some adventure together with my sister and other cousins. But only me and my son has the guts to enter and go near the building (the rest stayed inside the car) We heard a strange voice- a woman's voice that sounds like moaning-... and the rest is history :p Enjoy weekend...but I can never touch a cockroach

Dear sister, I don’t fear cockroaches but I did it in childhood, where there were big ones. Here in this place it is too small, it irritates me much. When we go for vacation on one month, that time they are ruling our home, on return it is a mess everywhere (as the house is closed for one month). I hate to clean all the stuffs and need time to remove all. I don’t know from where they reach our home when leave the house. Ghosts!!!!!!!!! Still I don’t have any experience with the same. So it is difficult for me to believe.

dear sis I haven't seen a ghost- but I saw people appears in one of my photos taken from an old house when we visited a famous place and we took photos there. My friend , my sister and my mom also has same pose on the same spot- but nothing appear- only on my shot. We check the digicam and zoomed in- they're really people- human figure of adults and kids- when there's no other people around. I have felt some strange and heard strange sounds too in some occasions, but just ignore those as I do am afraid of those stuffs. About cockroach- please spare me from those creatures Enjoy weekend dear

Hi bonita you're right am not afraid and believe in ghost because until at this very moment of life I never experience it even once. Yes there were times you feel afraid because it's natural for a normal human being but never in my life i felt any presence of those ghost they said. Well, they said, be afraid of the live one than a ghostthat' true. Because live people use "ghost" to take what they wanted from anyone, right? Cockroach is real but am not afraid of that creature...what I am really afraid for is BIG COMMON HOUSE SPIDER (scientific name: TAPAY-TAPAYinchrophilia ) preying on cockroach..have you seen that bonita? I guess you have seen it already. Yes, that's it. Nice week end bonita mia.. Mobhomeir here 042112 1537

dear Martin, Yah, I know that "tapay-tapay" weeiiii- they looks big but not scary I am not that scared when it comes to spider. I remember my kiddie days when we use to search for spiders for "spider's fight" yep-I can touch and made spider crawls in my hands :p But roaches- goodness - never mind (^_^) I have few encounters with unseen or paranormal things. Not ghosts- but spirits (since they are unseen)- but I just ignore it, they can't do any harm. Unlike a-live person,particularly the bad ones- they're always waiting for the right time to attack and harm us. Hope you had a wonderful weekend my dear

I hate cockroaches. But I will tell you one thing about them. They are the cleanest bugs known to man. But they are disgusting. And there is no male or female, they all lay eggs. Thats why it is so hard to control the population of them. I basically hate bugs in general. I kill every one I come across. Not for me.

No matter how we tried to exterminate these bugs- they're still here. Although my place is not as bad like other places where roaches almost dominate the area- but seeing one in a day is enough to put me off

They are the cleanest because they groom themselves much ilk a cat does. They are always cleaning themselves. And they are extremely hard to get rid of. Once you see one, especially a baby one, that means there is an infestation somewhere. Don't run, kill them. Get rid of them. Call an exterminator.

Well, Cockroaches are enough to scare anyone. I hope as long as I live I never have to deal with them again... (Back in the day I knew someone so messy she had a lot of them everywhere. Even in her Microwave, etc. and it was grouse.) I was her daughters godmother, and even helped get her to realize if she wanted a chance in life she needed to get away from her Mom, and even called CPS on her when the girl was 14 because of the filth. No, cockroaches are not good and I hope I never see any again myself.

Ghosts are in fact apparitions and those are just figments of our imagination..but cockroaches ..why must one attach so much fear and awe over it while it is a harmless insect with little troubles posing to you. The pestering is of course there, but the fear for cockroaches is quite unfounded.

hello sukumar, It's not exactly fear like fear of falling from a tower. It's a creepy feeling for this creature. Maybe you don't find cockroach that creepy but most people do. My youngest son never feel creepy with roaches and he simply catches one when he saw it flying or crawling and just throw it away. have a good day

Hi Jai sis, i think majorities of us are scare of the cockroach. Same like you, i am also scare of the cockroach, too. Since from a very young age, i don't like cockroach and lizards. For me, both are creepy and yucky. There is a time, when i am ordering a plate of fried noodle from the road side. After the plate of noodle had arrived, instead of eating them, i decided to paid and left the noodle uneaten. It is because the noodle man had fried the cockroach included with the noodle. So yucky that noodle seller, and i never want to visit that noodle store anymore.

Wow..there was one movie on cockroaches..living underground and coming up in large numbers to kill people..Honestly, I still remember the name of on character, Parmiter or something. So you gotta watch that to get real creeps. Once you get them, you would know you are not really scared of one or two around. At the most, they can enter your ear, nose, or mouth..

LOL. I am not afraid by ghosts -- maybe a little --, but I hate cockroaches. I have not seen a cockroach since my college years. At this time I have lived one year in a flat infested by large cockroaches : they were eating my cakes, were doing their morning jogging on my bed, and were sleeping in my shoes. I used all weapons available -- sprays, gels, poisons, traps... -- except perhaps anti personal land -- and wall -- mines, with no result : when I was winning a battle, a new plague of cockroaches was coming soon after from nowhere. I think cockroaches are certainly worst than ghosts : ghosts don't reproduce. Protect your lunch.

Ghost never exists in our own world. I never trust any story about it and I never see it, either. Ghost and we are in different dimensional world. It is true that ghost can see us but can't do anything.

Hi jaiho: That's really hilarious. I mean, cockroach are so small and they are more afraid than you are. People fear ghosts because they represent but these dirty small animals, you can even kill them putting a shoe on them. They are ugly right but they are not something to be afraid of as ghosts ALVARO
