Today's the day where I'll start my course! Ilang araw na rin kami naguusap nila Kath, Daddy, Mommy, at James through skype.
Since it's 10AM here, 3AM naman doon.

"I'm sorry if you're still awake. 11AM pa start ng classes ko." I told him.

"Baby, it's okay. Is your friend awake? Sabay ba kayo papasok? Have you eaten your breakfast already?" Sunod sunod niyang tanong.

"She's not here, mas maaga ang class niya. I ate cereal for breakfast!" I answered.

"Good thing you have a chef on the making. Kailangan mo pa rin matuto, okay?" Natatawa niyang sabi.

"Yes, boss. I'll let Kelly teach me." I said.

"Okay, babe... you should go to your class para maaga ka. We'll talk later when you get home." He said.

"Okay, I love you!" I said.

"I love you too." He said and then winked. Hanggang sa nawala na iyong tawag namin sa facetime.

I grab all my things and head to the University. Buti nalang at inikot na namin ito ni Kelly at tinuruan kung saan saan ang mga kwarto ng Class ko dahil kinuha ko rin iyong  Identification Card ko para makapasok ng University. I decided to sit at the back of the class na medyo kita pa naman ang professor. Habang dumarami iyong pumapasok ay may umupo na lalaki sa aking tabi.

"Hi, I'm Enzo!" Pakilala niya sa akin.

"I'm Nadine." I said and shook hands with him.

"Scholar?" He asked.

"Uh yes! How did you know?" I asked back at him.

"It's in your ID." He said looking at my ID.

"Oh! Yup, I got it yesterday." I said.

"Where are you from?" I asked.

"Manila." He said smiling.

Ano!? Kaya naman pala ay may itsura siyang Filipino!

"Hindi ka Scholar, ano? Mayaman ka siguro." I said.

"Kanina ko pa alam na Filipina ka. Halata sa itsura mo. Yup, di ako scholar." He said smiling at me.

"Bakit ka dito nag aaral? Andito ba pamilya mo?" Tanong ko.

"My little sister wanted to study Fashion here. Andito naman iyong kapatid ni Daddy." He explained.

"Ikaw? Paano ka nakakuha ng scholar?" Tanong niya pa sa akin.

"I won in an exhibit. Dapat fashion or photography ang aaralin ko pero walang solo classes so I chose Architecture para makakuha ako ng class for fashion or photography." Explain ko.

Nang dumating na iyong professor ay nakinig na kami sa kanya. I hope Architecture will be easy! Pagkatapos ng klase kong iyon ay Photography na. Hindi normal ang laki ng Classroom! God, I can't believe there are two studios in the classroom! Naging madali lang klase kong iyon. Kaso wala akong nakilala roon.

The day ended really well. Umuwi na rin ako kaagad at hindi na hinintay si Kelly. I had to do some requirements for my Archi class ptomorrow.

Manila Time: 11am
Paris Time: 6pm

James:
I'm working with something :) youuu?

Me:
I just got home!

I laid myself on the couch and ate one of the chips Kelly bought. I got a nap until Kelly got home feeling happy.

"Nadine, May cupcakes diyan na natira sa class kanina! May red velvet, chocolate, and more!" Masayang sabi ni Kelly sa akin.

"Thanks, Kelly!" I said and sat properlyy

"So, how's the first day of Archi?" Tanong niya sa akin at tumabi sa akin hawak pa ang kanyang cupcake.

I got myself one too and took a bite. "Masaya naman! I got to know someone too! Si--- Si Enzo! He's also a Filipino at katabi ko siya sa class." Kwento ko.

"Ah, si Enzo Lagdameo! He's really nice, siya rin ang una kong nakilala roon." Sabi niya.

"Marami ba na students na taga Pilipinas?" Tanong ko.

"Medyo! But, I don't see them often already." Sagot niya at patuloy na kumain ng kanyang cupcake.

Kaya naman pala! Sana marami pa akong makilala at makaibigan. Mukha naman makakasurvive ako dito!

My IPad was ringing because of a call from my mom. I immediately answered it.

"Hi, Ma!" I greeted when I saw her face lit up the screen.

"Mukhang kagagaling mo lang sa school ah!" Sabi niya.

"Ah, yes..." I answered.

"Kamusta naman? May nakilala ka ba? Mabait ba ang mga tao diyan? Kumain ka na ba -- Anong oras diyan? Ah, ng hapunan?" Sunod sunod niyang tanong.

"Oo naman, Ma! Ang bait nila at may nakilala ako. Hindi lang ako narito sa apartment-"

"Ano?! Sino yan?!" Sigaw niya.

"Ano ka ba, Ma! Si Kelly... Nagaaral siya ng culinary. Filipina siya na may lahing hapon." Sagot ko.

"Ah! Edi maganda na may kasama ka diyan!" Sabi niya sa akin na nakangiti.

"Oo nga eh... Ipapakilala kita sa kanya!" Sabi ko at lumapit sa pwesto ni Kelly.

"Kelly! Ito si Mommy." Sabi ko at bumati si Kelly.

"Hi po, Tita!" Bati niya.

"Hi, Kelly! Paki alagaan naman si Nadine para sa akin." Natatawa niyang sabi.

"Ma, naman!" Tumawa ako.

Medyo nagkwentuhan sila ni Mommy kaya medyo natagalan rin kami. Pagkatapos ng tawag na iyon ay nagluto na siya ng Chicken Alfredo. Tinuruan niya ako kung paano gawin iyon at medyo nadalian namana ako. It just takes practice!

"Ang sarap, Kelly! Thank you sa pagturo ah." Sabi ko sa kanya.

May araw na bibigyan ko ito si Kelly ng gift. Sobrang bait niya talaga sa akin!

"Wala iyon, no'! Sige, hugas na ako ng plato..." Sabi niya at tumayo.

"Iwan mo nalang diyan, Kelly! Ako na bahala diyan." Sabi ko at ngumiti. Tumango naman siya. "Okay, fine... I'll sleep." She said and yawned.

I washed the plates and after, I got a call from James. It was 10pm here so it's 3pm in Manila kaya siguro ay napatawag.

"Oh, napatawag ka?" Medyo antok kong sabi.

"I really miss you." He said smiling.

"I miss you too! Sooo much!" I said.

"So, how's studying there?" He asked.

"It's fine. Mukhang magiging masaya naman ako mag-aaral dito." I answered.

"That's really good but I really miss you so much, baby." He said looking sad while hugging a pillow.

"Cuuuutie mo talaga." I commented and laughed.

"Are you sleepy?" He asked.

I nodded. "Sleep now, baby. Dream of me! I love you." He said.

"I love you too. Bye." I said sleepily.
