There was a group of cats meowing so sadly on my way back to my old house to collect something that it made Goosebumps appear on my flesh.

Then all of a sudden, this crazy cat hiding in the bushes suddenly just clawed my legs.

What gives?

Then I thought to myself, oh no, I think I'm cursed. That cat just cursed me. So I prayed a bit, hoping I can set up some spiritual force field around myself to deflect any incoming curses.

My paranoia started getting to me while I was walking through that spooky corridor back home. That corridor that always makes me turn my head around to make sure no one's following me. And if I try not to turn behind, I keep thinking and thinking that there's someone behind me! So as I was walking out of the lift through the spooky corridor, MJ's "You Are Not Alone" started playing.

!!

I'm not?!

Right after that song, Good Charlotte's "I Just Wanna Live" came on.

HOLY COW. Is this a sign?!

"You Are Not Alone" followed by "I Just Wanna Live"??

I think that stupid cat cursed me.
