Heart or mind? At this point, I'm not even sure about my feelings. All of a sudden a wave crashed over me. And it freezes my brain. I can't comprehend properly. I asked The Lord for a rest, but He gave me conflict. Conflict that is easy to ignore, easy to disengaged. But why can't I? Or maybe I don't want to disengage in the first place.

Ever since the day I saw Adriane, something whispered in my ear. A silent hope, a wishful thinking. And that was the very first time I've been honest to myself even to my friends that I actually proclaimed liking someone. 

What? May crush ha? Utang na loob nagdadalaga kana!

Shut up! I don't know. I just saw him and felt some strange connection with him.

Kahitna! This is the first time you ever revealed to us na may crush ka noh! Paano? Nalalamang nalang namin may boyfriend kana!

Why are you so amazed by it?

Kasi makikita na namin paano ka magpabebe! ha ha ha

But when I saw him with Wena that day, I said to myself that was the end of it.

Grabe friend, spotting ka na ngalang taken pa! ang galing mo din tumayming sa pagka-dalaga ano?

Wga ka nga! Heart broken ako ngayon!

Oh sige mag-inarte ka

Bakit ganun? Nasaharapniya na ako one time peronihindiniyatinanongng "what can I do for you ma'am?" Eh tubiglangnamanhihingiinko.

Jamie, It's either hindi ka niya type or umiiwaslangsa temptation.

Ganun ba?Uhm, Pwedeng duon nalang tayo sa umiiwas sa temtasyon? Para naman maramdaman kong maganda ako sa paningin niya.

Haluh! Yan, humarot ka ng konti para magka-love life ka

Ha Ha Ha ang baliw mo!

Pero seryoso Jamie, hayaan mo nayun sa girlfriend niya.

Of course Ivy, I know.

It is nothing but mere admiration for a stranger. That strange connection that pulls me to him is just an imagination, a strong desire. I accepted that it was the end, only to find out now, that it was just the beginning.

Your feelings should not be based upon your feelings. Your emotions should be managed by your mind. I remind myself about it always.

Hay. Adriane is a man with a plan. And I am a person with conviction. But we are both adults! So why is this so hard?

Sasabog na utak ko!

But from what I see, I think I like to surf over the waves.
