I haven't been active, really... Sorry about that!!
Well, I noticed I haven't posted any of my Ghostly Encounters here yet...

I've never really seen a ghost before but I can feel their presence sometimes.
(My brother is the only one in the family who has an opened third eye. It's creepy what he sees...)

Anyways, when we first came to Japan, I didn't really feel anything strange in the house.
But later on... I get the feeling as if someone's watching me from behind and when I go up and down the stairs, I feel as if someone's following me.
Since I didn't want to scare myself... I always pretend that it's nothing.
But when my brother also went here (from the Philippines), the first thing I asked him was whether he can see anything lurking around the house.

Surprise! Surprise! My feeling was right after all.
He said there was a little girl in our room and a lady downstairs (she mostly stays in the kitchen or the bathroom).

I was scared of course, and my brother noticed that the little girl doesn't like him at all.
(When my brother stays up late, using the computer... He said the girl would just sit near him... Staring all throughout the night.) *shiver*

But as time passed, I realized they were harmless... So, I didn't brood about it anymore.

The scary part was when my sister tried the 'black magic' thing-y her weird friend taught her.
She ended up calling a spirit... In the middle of the night she would hear a little girl crying, sitting on her bed.
For weeks she suffered from this and couldn't sleep at all. Of course, when it all began she thought it was just her imagination. But was convinced it was real when my mom heard it too. (Around 3am, my mom was thirsty and wanted to drink, she passed by our room and heard someone crying. She thought it was my little sister but she was sound asleep.)
*freaky*

My sister asked her friend for a favor and asked how to drive the girl away... After a few days, the girl was gone.
*relief*

I saw the little girl (the one originally there when I first came) a few weeks after my sister went on a vacation to the Philippines and a few days after my brother moved out to live on his own.
My little sister and I were still getting used to not having a crowded room because before, all four of us siblings shared the same one. (I got my brother's bed. Haha)
That night, it was colder than usual (not only due to the winter coldness, I think.) but I kept distracting myself by listening to my MP3 player... I fell asleep after a few moments but woke up at around 3 or 4 am... I kept getting the feeling as if someone was staring at me... When I opened my eyes, I could see nothing but darkness. I tried to see through the darkness engulfing the room but soon gave up. But just as I decided to return to my sleep... Through the little space in the window, light passed through (a car passed by)... in that instant I saw the silhoutte of the girl, crouched down on my little sister's bed. I froze. I was so scared and yet I couldn't take my eyes away from the scene. I didn't see her face... her head looked blurry, but her form was so clear... I could tell she was looking at me even if I couldn't see her eyes. It was so silent and I was scared she might move towards me and do something...
I can't remember what happened next after the fear took over me. When I woke up again (when did I fell asleep?), it was already morning and I needed to prepare for school...

Well, was that corny or something??
But these things really happened. I don't feel that scared anymore but there are times when I still feel shivers running up and down my spine when I feel like I'm being stared at, watched by the additional... people??
