....

Today's a great day because the weather is so good... It's Friday and next week on Monday is gonna be a nerve wrecking day 'cause it's the school opening which means first day of school... Time past so fast like clouds running.

When I say it's a great weather, it is good for beach day... I haven't experienced beach here since I got here... So me and Angela along with some of her friends are going to the beach just an hour drive...

Angela has a lot of friends and because of that, convoy is efficient. I did not expect to be with more than ten people more like strangers.

"This is gonna be so fun, I tell you. You'll gonna have fun there." Angela said excitedly.

"I don't know. " I hesitated.

"What do you mean you don't know? Hey! Don't be too conscious if that's what's bragging you... The people following us are good and friendly. You can make friends with them..." She comforted me...

Angela's not the one driving 'cause her mom is so protective. That she might get tired and can't drive so we brought a driver.

"I mean. I'm not used to meeting people specially from here. In the Philippines. What if they wouldn't like me?"

"Oh. Ikaw talaga... Hindi naman sila ganun ka mga pangit na ugali para hanapan ka ng masama... They're not like what you are thinking about... They're good trust me... I've been friends with them since high school. And it's not gonna be fun if only we're alone you know. " She insisted.

"Yeah right. You have a point there. "

"Wait! Did you bring bikinis and sunblock lotion? " She asked worried.

"Uhm, ofcourse? " More like an obvious statement. What I mean sarcastically speaking there.

"Uhh... They're so gonna be fond of you. I mean you've got great and perfect curves. Tall and lean at that age of yours? I mean that's even considered mature features here. That fair skin of yours, every teen girls dream of color here. Oh! And did I mention those perfect jaw line? Are you even a Filipino or what?"

"This features are just nothing when you go abroad. " I even became more conscious now that Angela's been telling me the great factors I have. Do they even care about the personality?

"Isay! Ano ka ba? What do you mean? Well...maybe for americans that structure of yours is common that they don't even appreciate anymore. Just saying. You know what? Just wait till we arrive at the beach so that you'll be the one telling me that you're like a celebrity here. "

"Hahha... There you go again. Alright. I trust you, okay? You can't just take away the mindset I have for strangers. The pressure is so much because of the fast approaching school opening. "

"I understand. Now if you're tired just sleep... We have a long drive."

I did as what she suggested. I slept... I felt the car stopped so I opened my eyes. We're here.

Whoah I never expect the beach to be busy... There's a lot of people around. Some on their bikinis and some wearing rush guards. Wait so maybe there's snorkelling, or not.

"We're here. Angela come on. Leave the things to mang Ando. He knows where to put those. "

"Okay." I said.

Angela dragged me to a bunch of teenagers. Men and women around.

"Oh!? Nauna pala kayo samin... Nga pala. Ito si Angela kababata ko slash bestfriend. Siya yung kinu-kwento ko sa inyo. Kadarating lang niya noong mga nakaraang linggo." Angela is somewhat like a proud mom introducing me to her friends.
