USM Engineering student was constantly abused!

USM Engineering stidents was constantly abused by 'Charlie' and what worst is, we can't even do anything other than escaping them. Oh yes, we can smack and crush 'Charlie' but how many can you crush?

The 'Charlie' i mentioned refers to a kind of freak beetle species known as Rove Beetle. Go search at wikipedia and you'll know how majestic is this tiny creature. "Never underestimate THEM"

Below are pics of me got bitten. Guess what, Rove Beetle also known as Nike bug in USM as they will raise their toxic @$$ before they release their toxin on your skin. That looks like Nike logo..

From http://kokcheehou.blogspot.com/ i realised that their toxin contain (C₂₄ H₄₃ O₉ N) ..Whoaaa...that's a chemical! carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen..awesome blend! Racun Rojak!

Through my analysis after got bitten so many times this semester, Charlie sting you in 2 ways

1) Crawl over your skin and release their toxin

2) They inject their toxin into your skin

1) If they release toxin on your skin

2) If they inject their toxin

Yesss....They INJECT..a bit frightening..see pic below. When i saw my leg like that, first impression "Fark, macam sarang ulat" Sucks..I just can't stop cursing Charlie that time.

Their toxin was acidic, so normally USM doctor will gives us alkaline cream, which for me is totally USELESS. It doesn't heal my wound at all.

Once toxin enter our skin:

1) you'll feel itchy

2) few days later, you'll feel 'pedih'

3) 1 week later, 'nanah' will appear

4) few more weeks later, you'll recover, but it will leave you a scar!!

Look at below pics to see how the 'nanah' develop!

Let me take pic of myself stripping and you'll see the 'abused' scar all over my body..haha..Sometimes i do think, if you want to study in APEX University like USM, you have to sacrifice..and currently, i sacrificed a lot..

This semester alone, i got bitten 6 times. Friends out there, if you encounter this freaking creature, smack them hard, leave no sympathy..or you'll feel the pain...
