OMG!

While having fun with my webcam snapping photos, this one snapshot reminds me of my childhood memories. Allow me to tell you the whole story that's if you have enough time to read.

It was before Year 1970.  My sister and brothers used to play "sungka" which is a game that I already mentioned before long time ago in another blog. So done with sungka we decided that we'll try the Quija board. You know what a Quija board right and what it looks like. If you don't know that kind of board you can research that in Google images. Of course that's a board, black board with the alphabets on it. From A to Z and with numbers. It's a small square board. We had a transparent glass (drinking glass that's empty), a sperma or candle that's been lighted. It was night time that we had this sort of game. It was dark. It was my sister who presided the game and she was holding on to that empty drinking glass. She had the mouth of the drinking glass on top of the board and had her one hand touching the bottom of the glass. The glass was placed on the middle of the board on the table and she asked us to place our hands on top of her hand. Then prayers first. We all prayed.  Then after she asked us whom we want to be in that glass, inside the empty glass. No one should reveal the name of that person whom we want to be in that glass. Few minutes later the glass started moving to the letters of the alphabet as it reveals the name. We released our hands and the empty glass started moving by itself.

Shocked and in disbelief of what's happening that moment in time ...you wont believe what  happened next.



That's how I remember the details. From then on

NO MORE QUIJA and NO MORE QUIJA BOARD!  End.
