I'm that kind of girl with impossible standards for a guy. I just thought that a screwed up person like me should have an unattainable perfect guy to balance it out. The perfect guy is perfect. The true gentleman, the handsome prince, the master of talents,and the prim and proper is what defines my perfect guy. He has so much to make up for my imperfections. Here's the story, I want him to make his own way to me. By returning something dear to me, he'd most probably gain my intimate favor.
but alas in this cruel world of land called country of Philippines, does such man exist? I have been in a quest to him through the years but ever since i came to college, I thought I need to prioritize my future career than future inexistent husband. So I chose books over such graces and doomed myseld fore find ver in the high standards of fictional characters.

I hurriedly ran to school because my first class starts at 7 am. To my surpise, nobody was at the room so I checked my COM if the room and time was right. Yet there was no one. The class president walked to me and she said "Naku wala prof natin ngayon girl. Naka leave si ma'am. Pinost ko yun kagabi ah, di mo nakita?"That explains that, i have better things to do at night than look at the group. Anyways I smiled at her and went to the canteen for a melon shake. They always ready one for me because I've been asking them to prepare me a melon shake every morning. I remember it like this:
"Beh, wala talagang shake pag umaga. Wala pang Ice."
"Ate please? Eto, take my eyes for it. I just want it to be the first thing to touch my lips."
"Ok lang ba sayo walang yelo?"
"Sige po, basta po bukas you'll prepare ice for my shake."
"sige sige, ang kuliiit mo talaga."
"YEHEY! Thank you pooo!!!"I remember that iceless shake was more like juice.
Anyways, i bought one this morning and went to Student Activity Center to wait it out. I started studying the lesson meant for this day in that subject we were supposed to have. I was there for some minutes then someone at my back shouted at me.
"MS. *******, MEET ME AT THE FACULTY ROOM RIGHT NOW."
I was startled and my melon shake shook off my hand down to the floor. I scurried my thing in my bag to go to the faculty room."Ms. *******, sign here para sa contest violin contest mo at science fare." said Sir.
Magtatagalog ako
PEDE NAMAN PALANG MAHINAHON EH."Ok sir. Sir can you please not shout at the SAC, you startled me and the students there."
"That's fine iha. Haha nasa imahe ko na ang sumigaw."
I kept looking for my favorite Faber Castell pen but it just was missing. Thankfully I am prepared and i have 10 more different pens in my bag.
He went up and submitted the papers downstairs which I assume would take such a long time for him considering his mass*gravity.
I went to my classes and people always kept and kept and kept on asking for pieces of papers. But atleast I could help them. They all know I would help anyone except at tests. I need to maintain my scholarship mainly for my pride.
My friends asked me to help them research for their project so we went to the library. They just ended up browsing facebook or 9gag and left me do all the work. I'm envious at those people over there working together to solve a problem.
After a few minutes, I finished their research and left them to read it. I went over to the books and wanted to read Romeo and Juliet BUT IT WAS MISSING. Who dare read those books. I'll just have to settle with whatever book there is.The night is falling and I stared at the sunset wishing to meet someone who would care for such beauty. Looking up to the sky made me want to sneeze but when i was about to reach for my hanky, it was missing too. Imagine me sneezing so unlady like at the streets. Actually don't imagine me. You did? You disgust me as much as i do myself.
