A little out of point here but, little greyhood loves... Chasing 'mouse' instead.

For so long, I haven't been oggling at guys. Well, partly because there isn't anyone that caught my attention.
But TODAY, i saw a really, really handsome guy in the bus lor! He's got well defined features and he looks like Luo Jia Liang (except the younger version of course). He's got alluring shiny eyes and a charming lopsided smile that makes any girl's heart skip a beat.
After watching him for like 10seconds, i looked down and saw something really appalling.
He actually has TATTOO
E V E R Y W H E R E !
Turn off factor two: He's listening to loud T E C H N O music that anybody sitting 3 seats away can hear ( like me).
Turn off factor three: He's a selfish typical 90s ah Beng. He sits with his knees bent, resting on the backrest of the frontseat, in his tight fitting 3 quarter black pants ( the kind when your bo liao friends would always ask you "eh your house flooded ah") and the market slippers. And he took up two seats.
Just the sight of that, turns me off totally. GOSH.
Just like watching a sexy,tall babe with slender killer legs and long silky hair. Snowhite fair complexion and big eyes with long lashes. So beautiful, you just want the world to stand still for that moment, to admire her in awe. Just when you were about to start fantasizing her as your girlfriend..
She whips out and lights a M E N T O L L I G H T C I G A R!
So turn off lor. Well, even if she doesnt smoke , factors like when she opens her mouth to speak, you thought you heard your market aunty gossiping again, will totally throw you back to reality and feel really nauseous about that 1 minute fantasy.
Anyways, back home today, wasn't in the mode to be a conscientious student. Came back, took a late lunch and immediately turned on the television to my favourite channel 10 - 12, switching back and forth to see if there's Myth busters or any interesting programs ( no more crocodile hunting from other people! Not interested. )
Something I found really amusing again. Discovery channel has a documentary on Tribes that we never knew still exist that practise cannibalism.
Bruce stayed with one of the tribal family for some time to learn and understand their culture, the KOMBAI culture. It's pretty interesting.
Before he was allowed to even step into their village, he had to stip naked and tie a rattan rope around his waist and puny leaf to cover his genitals. The form of negotiation here? TOBACCO. Just hand him a pack of cigars, and he'll be shaking hands with you. ( Good place for people who smoke).
Life was simple, they only hunt when they're hungry. No inventory of food was kept. Sources of food includes fishes, scrubs, weird paste from tree trunks, scorpions and mainly wild boars. Men will always be on 24 hour guard to prevent any war or attacks from neighbouring clans. Women, rears pigs which would be later used for formal rituals, weddings, death or celebrations. They also take care of the children and make food.
Funny thing is, the men, as long as they turn 13, would have to 'shield' their pee pees with a carrot-like branch. Meaning, they have to squeeze their *TOOT* in that carrotlooking branch and wear it around. So if the long carrot branch sticks up...............................
BAck to their rituals. The only time they still practise cannibalism is when a man does evil. They believe every man is kind, and only when the evil spirit gets into your head, men will do evil. Hence, when one person harms another, the attacker will be hunted down by the fellow village members and be killed. After he is killed, the senior member of the KOMBAI people would amputate the man's arms and legs, leaving only the torso, stomach and head and later chop into pieces and eaten. *eewww*.
Gross right?
But in normal circumstances, while Bruce was living with them, they were really peaceful and caring people. Nothing of the sort we would always have imagined about cannibals and how scary they can be.
As Bruce was leaving, the 'brothers' of the village actually felt sad and almost teared. They've really treated their guest really well. When asked if they would like to change their lives and slowly develop like the others?
They certainly do. Except that they had no resources or help to do it. :) Nice and heartwarming to hear them speak of wanting to change life and stop cannibalism, living life in peace with other neighbours, improving the quality of life as well .
