Tv...its not only about entertainment

Dear all...

I might did not blog for long, for I run out of idea what to write, but after I read one of my long ex classmate's comment, something pop up in my mind to write what I am always good at... here goes, the second one, after Long Hard road Into Hell, sit tight, do not look back, stare at your monitor and be prepared for the thrill...

For a very brief introduction, TV, a short form for television had been invented since 1927, that's really long long time ago, by Philo Farnsworth, (some smart as* guy), it was black and white then...

Now, average of more than 90% of houses, have their own television set, from some 14" inches monitor to 40" LCD. It is all available in market nowadays, expensive, cheap, loan, credit card...in all sorts of way, public can get hold of one of it...

But let me tell you something that, you might do not want to know, really, so when there is still time, there is still a chance, you might have a TV inside your bedroom, looking at it right now...you can close this blog and go do something else, I do not advice the weak hearted reader to continue reading...



So, you insist wanna go on, well...let's go on...



I do have one at home as well, not really big, it is just some that average family could afford it, I was watching some movie at that particular time, since I am on holiday and nothing that I really can do. Night is still pretty young, eye is still not that heavy and body still contains some energy enough for few more hours.

I can't really remember what movie I was watching at that time, it was some action stuff if I am not mistaken, I was 'attached' on the screen, sitting there satisfying myself with some chips and coke, what a life...I can really chill when I just sit there with some junk food and coke, and smoke definitely, that would be it, infinite joy.

When the movie is almost going to end, I remember I was slowly falling asleep, and which earlier on, my younger brother who is watching with me, had gone to bed, left me alone sitting there, watching the action pack.
I might can finish the movie, but I did not, my eye somehow could not stand it anymore, so I decided to turn off the TV and hit my bed.

Here it all starts,

When I turn the TV off, and even I switch off the power supply making sure that everything is really dead, I walked to my bedroom whereby, I hear the TV is switch on again, no lies, it switch on by itself, I shall have no explanation for it, but just assuming that it might be me myself which is to tired until my own eye play trick on myself. So I walked back to the TV and switch it off again, and when I turn to the power supply, it is still off... second assumption, it is still me myself.

Having no second thoughts, I walked to my bedroom again, yes reader, the TV is on again...third assumption, there is definitely something very wrong, I tilted my head and looked at the TV, this time, no more action pack, it is something else, it was...

A woman...

age around 60-70 plus, wrinkles all over the face, Grey whitish hair, sad expression, very very sad...it is still fine until...

She made an eye contact with me, eye to eye and gave me a smile...

The next moment that I opened my eye, I am sitting on the couch with the TV showing some colorful lines showing that no more pro grammes is going on, I fall asleep...I smile to myself and think, what a fool I had been...

I switch off the TV, and the power supply and walked to my bedroom still thinking that, what a fool i had been...and then...

the TV switch 'itself' on again...
