My First Romance

Chapter 1: Meet Me

Chapter 1:  Meet Me  

Falling inlove? Sabi nila the feeling is absolutely amazing. Oh talaga? Maniwala sa inyo!

You can't even describe how much your world changes. Exage!!

Everything looks good to you, and you're always happy, you're always in the mood. Well, I always look good, ever since the world began.

Butterflies giggle in your stomach. All you think is the person you are in love with.. all day, all night, all the time. Waah, OA! 

Being in love turns your entire world upside down. Parang roller coaster. Eh ayoko pa naman sa roller coaster.

Yeah sounds great but I really don't know as I've never been in love. 

Ayoko ng relationship. 

Ayoko ng commitment. 

Ayokong masaktan. 

Ayokong maiwanan.

Nakakatakot. I never had a boyfriend. It's not because of being panget, ha! Hindi lahat ng NBSB panget, yung iba sadyang choosy lang. I am beautiful, inside and out. That's a given fact. Biglang lumakas ang hangin, napansin mo? Hayaan mo na, ako naman ang writer, wag ka nang kumontra. K? Labyu! Hahaha.

Yung ibang friends ko highschool palang luma-lovelife na, yung iba ngayon nagse-settle down na, they are starting to build their own family, some of them are with their long-time partners. Five years, eight years. Ang tibay nila. Sows, magkakasawaan din kayo! HAHAHA. Litanya ng mga biterets, jk! 

Samantalang ako twenty-four.. twenty-four, twenty-four! Hayyy, minsan nakaka-pressure din e. I know I'm not getting any younger. 

Whenever they are asking about my lovelife, ang lagi kong sinasabi.  "Lovelife ko, okay lang parang coke.. ZERO."   

Bakit kasi kailangang itanong pa kung alam na naman. Shunga lang? Makapagtanong, feeling close. Wag ganon, friend. 

And there's one time someone said, "Alam mo, you're too pretty to be single. Wala ka ba talagang boyfriend?" Aba! Muka ba akong sinungaling? I don't know if I'll take it as a compliment or an insult. Grabe siya. 

Ang sagot ko naman.. "Yeah, I know I'm an epitome of beauty, and yes, I'm single because I'm too pretty to be lied to, to be cheated on and to be played with. I love being single. Life is easier. Mataray at maarte ako e, bakit ba? 

Alam mo kasi the problem with most guys is that, they are assholes. Mambobola. Manloloko. May mga two timer pa. At ang pinaka-nakakainis dun? Panget na nga, babaero pa. The heck! Ang kakapal ng mukha. Sarap ihambalos sa semento!

Takot akong masaktan, oo. Hindi naman minamadali ang mga bagay-bagay. There's right time for everything.  If the time is right, it will happen.

Honestly speaking, men for me are like luxury and not necessity. Ilang taon na ba akong naka-survive ng walang lovelife? Twenty-four years and still counting. And look at me, happily alive and perfectly kicking. Kung magkaka-lovelife man ako, bonus nalang 'yon. (Sabay flip ng medyo naka-curl kong long hair.)

No, but seriously, I am single because.. I want to have the ability to manage my own schedule.. that's one of the major perks of being single. Secondly, I want to focus on my career and personal goals first more than romance. At naniniwala akong everything will happen in God's perfect time.
