Chapter 2: Upside down
It's now our entrance examination in Howard U. Magkaiba kami ng nakuha ng oras ng mga friends ko. 9am kasi ang time slot na nakuha ko. Samantalang sila ay pang-hapon pa.

While waiting outside the room, I'm playing with my hair that made boys from other school stared at me like they've never seen a real-life goddess in their whole life. "May lapis ka?" I asked the other student. Tumango lang ito sa kin. "Pwede bang peram? Wala kasi akong nadala e." He stared at me for a seconds before giving me what I borrowed.

I winked, "Thanks!"

After minutes, pinapasok na kami sa loob. Bago mag-test ay nagbigay muna ng instructions yung proctor. Thank God dahil pwedeng kumain habnag nagtetest dahil wala itong break. Straight 3 hours kasi ang test.

While taking the test, hindi chocolates ang kinakain ko. Too much fats kasi. Kaya naman wheat bread lang ang kinakain ko at herbal juice.

After the test, binalik ko na kay Kuya yung pencil niya, "Thank you again!" Lalakad na sana ako paalis nang pigilan ako nito.

I raised my eyebrows in a nice way, "Why?"

"P-Pwede bang makuha number mo?!"

I smiled, "No phone. Sorry." I was about to turned my back on him when he touch my wrist. What the.

"Eh n-name mo?"

I calmed myself for a minute. I don't want to cause a scene and I need a good image in this university. I know that this boy will be my one of my suitors/admirers on my first year in college. So, I'll be good to him. "Irene. Irene Desylvia. Want to know more about me? Just follow me on fb, ig, and twitter. Hindi mo na kasi ako maadd sa fb e. You know too much friends. K? Bye!" Then, I flipped my hair and walked like a model.

 K? Bye!" Then, I flipped my hair and walked like a model

Nag-ikot ikot muna ako dun sa Howard U. You know, ikakalat ko lang ang ganda ko sa mga college students dito na this year, there's an incoming freshmen na magpapaikot sa lahat ng lalaki 'to. Naiisip ko palang na hinahabol ako ng lalaki, jusko kinikilig na ko.

Pumunta muna ko sa may garden at umupo dun sa may bench. Kumain ako ng kaunting baon na natira ko. Balak ko kasing antayin sina Densie na matapos mag-test. But unfortunately, nakatulog ako.

I woke up when someone wake me up, "The hell..." I muttered.

"Students are not allowed to sleep in here po."

Sinamangutan ko lang si Manong at galit kong kinuha yung bag ko. I looked at my watch, it's already 4pm. Matagal rin pala akong nakatulog. For sure tapos na sina Joanna mag-test. But wait, bakit hindi nila ako tinatawagan?

Kinuha ko yung phone ko sa bag and damn, lowbat! Badtrip! Galit kong binalik yung phone ko sa may bag ko nang may maapa akong medyo matigas na papel sa loob. I furrowed my eyebrows. Is this the letter before? As far as I remembered, tinapon ko na 'yon.
