A Fangirl's Chase

Chapter 1: Violet and TBND

Violet's POV

"Aside from hashtag, subtweet, auto-tune, what are the new words you know that have been included in the latest dictionary? Anyone who can give and define?"

"Okay, Mr. Tanchingco"

"Tech-savvy meaning well informed about or proficient in the use of modern technology."

"Yes you're right. These are the people who know a lot about modern technology, especially computers. Usually teenagers are pretty tech-savvy these days, well, even kids nowadays." paliwanag ng prof. ko saaming magkakaklase. "Okay another words, class" then pagkasabi niya no'n someone raised his hand again to participate in the discussion.

"YOLO is also included in the dictionary which abbreviated as You Only Live Once which defines as expressing the view that one should make the most of the present moment." Sagot naman isa ko pang classmate. Nagpatuloy lang ang flow ng discussion habang ang iba kong classmates ay nagp-participate.

"It's your turn, Ms. Garcia"

"Of course, the oh-so-famous word who actually conquered the world of each teenagers even adult people. None other than, selfie which means an image of oneself taken by oneself using a camera especially for posting on social networks."

"That's true Ms. Garcia. Well, let's be honest that selfie has been actually a hobby of all of us."

"Hindi rin, fangirling kaya ang hobby ko" bulong ko habang patuloy sa pagd-discuss si Mrs. Tuazon, ang prof. namin.

Wait? Fangirl?

Oh yeah! That's included, right?

"But did you know that the American Psychiatric Association has recently confirmed that three or more selfies a day can be enough to constitute a mental disorder?" tanong ng aming prof. saaming magkakaklase. Ang iba ay nag-agree, ang iba naman ay ayaw tanggapin.

Well, narinig ko na nga ang tungkol diyan. And I admit na mapag-selfie din ako minsan pero not to the point na pagka-gising pa lang selfie na agad o kaya nakaka-ilang daang selfie sa isang araw. Pero teka, tatanggapin ko bang may mental disorder ako dahil lumalagpas minsan sa tatlo ang selfies 'ko?

"Class, another words" muling na-divert ang atensyon ko kay Ma'am nung magsalita siya. Okay, it's my turn to participate in the discussion.

"Ms. Hernandez" tawag saakin ni Ma'am Tuazon with hand gesture nung magtaas ako ng kamay.

"Fangirl is now also included which means a girl or woman who is an extremely or overly enthusiastic fan of someone or something."

"Oh how I hate fangirls. Those kind of people are really annoying." Singit ni Dinah (pronounce as Dayna) in a mataray tone, isa sa mga kaklse kong babae tapos ay nagtawanan sila ng mga friends niya. Alam kasi nila na fangirl ako. Bitch talaga ang isang 'to sa klase kaya maraming nakaka-away.

"Shut up Dinah" inis na bulyaw sakanya ng isa sa mga classmates kong fangirl din ng The Band Next Door. Dito kasi sa university namin ay marami ding fangirls/fanboys. Others are Potterhead, Twihards, or name-all-the-books-you-know, K-Poppers and any band out there including The Band Next Door. Pero siyempre, pinaka-maraming fangirls dito ng TBND.

"Totoo naman 'di ba? Fangirls only know how to squeal, stalk, and do crazy things kaya mga walang laman ang utak" Tapos ay tumayo pa siya mula sa pagkakaupo then sinabi niya 'yon. Bitchesa talaga 'tong isang 'to! Isa pa, sa inaakto niya ngayon, siya nga 'tong annoying eh. Kaasar!
