I just remembered something interesting, binulong ko sa sarili ko. Kinakabahan ako. Nandito kasi ako backstage. And in a few moments, my goal in high school will be achieved. Nagtataka ka siguro kung ano yung naalala ko no? Well naalala ko kasi yung time na. Oh! sorry! I forgot that you dont know the story. Wait. I'll explain it to you.
*FLASHBACK*
Ito ako, naglalakad ng walang pakialam. Kahit alam kong pinagtitinginan nila yung damit na suot ko kasi baduy, or kahit tinitingnan nila ung mukha kong nerdy, o kahit na pinagtatawanan nila ang magulo kong buhok. Basta. Wala akong pakialam. Even though I knew that the school I was transfering to is a school for talented people, Singers, Dancers and many other future entertainers are learning here. I still kept my "baduy" look even though there're more clothes in my closet than any average girls. It just felt so right when I wear these kinds of clothes but occasionally, I wear those fashionable clothes because that's when they feel right. And the people who bully me are always so shocked that they always confess to me. Which makes me puke. That's why i always tell my parents to transfer me to another school.
Anyway, its first day of school, transferee ako, tapos di ko pa alam kung me kakilala akong makikita dito. Okay lang yun. Besides, I've got the feeling that this school year is going to be fun.
But I SPOKE TOO SOON. I was in the middle of reassuring myself when someone tripped me and said "HEY UGLY! ANONG GINAGAWA MO DITO?! THIS SCHOOL ISN'T A PLACE FOR CREATURES LIKE YOU!" then, his mates started to laugh.
My head was about to explode when i remembered my heart beating fast and it feels that the air became so limited. I calmed myself, smiled at him,napansin ko na hindi naman pala siya gwapo so I decided to answer him, "Oh really? Eh bakit nandito ka?"
HIS mates laughed harder and i caught in my peripheral vision that his face is red from anger. I smiled and thought to myself, well done Aerandria. You managed to humiliate him without having to faint afterwards. EXPLANATION TIME: nagte-teamwork kasi heart and lungs ko. Kaya kapag di ko makontrol emotions ko, bumibilis heartbeat ko, di ako makahinga, nahihilo ako, nanginginig and then BAM! Gigising na lang ako na nasa clinic or nasa kama ng kwarto ko. Its kinda hard to be me. Lalo na pag kasama sa mga EMOTIONS na dapat kong icontrol ay LOVE. Well, its not really a problem for me because I didn't experience that one yet. But when the time comes, maybe it'll be the hardest thing to control.
My mind was starting to float away from reality when someone bumped at me. I was startled of course. Ikaw ba naman, nasa dreamland ka na't lahat biglang me sisira ng daydream mo? Nakakainis kaya. Pero I'll admit, this was my fault. I was starting to say sorry when I saw his face. I was lost for words. Para bang tumakbo papalayo yung dila ko para di ako makapagsalita. You think I'm over-reacting? Sorry but no. I wish I was. If I need to describe his face, just imagine him as one of those "cool guy" type in the movies. Tapos nung napatingin ako sa mata nya, I knew something was wrong with him. Those eyes were very sad but still attractive (sorry i just couldn't get over how handsome he looks). Then, the weary eyes of his started to change from confusion, to anger. I realized that he was glaring at me. I cleared my throat and said something really clever. "Uh.Er.Sorry for. Uh." After that, I dashed off. Not even completing a simple sentence. Akalain mo yun. First hour, sa first day ng school, meron na kagad akong embarassing moment?
Oh, God, THIS DAY GETS WORST BY THE MINUTE! reklamo ko sa napakatalino kong brain.
Luckily, I got over it quickly than normal. Wanna know why? Nandito na kasi ako sa room ng section ko at nung pag silip ko, nagi-introduce na sila, and wanna know what's worse? Malapit na silang matapos, which means I'M SUPER DUPER DEAD. I gathered up my courage and knocked. The teacher opened the door.
"Oh, you must be Ms. Aerandria Jimenez. Well missy, this is the first day of school and you broke the rules. Now give me the reason why you are late. Write it in 2 pieces of intermidiate pad. Back to Back. NOW!"
Oh! wow! I'm sooo lucky! Oh! I wonder what GOOD will happen next. sabi ko sa sarili ko pagkatapos ng klase. Pano ba naman. Hindi lang dalawang embarrasing moments ang nangyari sa kin. Gusto mo isa-isahin ko? Okay. Nung pinagintroduce ako ng teacher ko sa harapan, biglang pumasok yung lalaking nakita ko sa hallway, and worse? Hindi siya pinagalitan ng teacher. Nginitian niya pa nga ito at sinabing "Its so nice to see you" OKAY favoritism alert! Pero yung nakapag pahiya sa akin ay yung utal-utal kong pananalita dahil sa sobrang galit. Yung sunod na nakakahiya? Nadapa lang naman ako sa hallway na maraming tao. Napahiya ako sa new found friends ko. Pero di nila ako pinagtawanan, tinulungan nila ako at nginitian, sabi pa nga nung isa, "Are you okay? That fall is kinda bad." i answered her " Of course I'm fine! There are more accidents I make that are far more worse than this." and they smiled playfully as an answer for my weirdness.
OKAY time to take a break from the story.
I'll describe the faces of my new friends.. Hmm.. Let's start with Xyra Joy Pama. She says that I can call her Xy if I want. Um. Her appearance is really pretty. And I can tell that her personality is too. She has a natural brownish hair, its lenght is just below the shoulder, pretty eyes, fair complexion, and a slim body. Her height is just the same as mine, average.
Next is Laleine Almira Salem. The first thing I really liked at her face was her lips. The upper lip is wider than the lower one and its naturally red (which made me jealous because mine has a hint of violet in it.) Her hair is really long. And its color is like corn hair. And I tell you, its natural. her eyes is pretty wide and her eyebrows were thick which is also cute for girls. It made her look like an Indian except that her complexion is really light. Her personality is being talkative, and also laughs a lot.
Next one is Keith Salentes. Well. I think she's really pretty. Her complexion is not too dark and not too light. Her eyes are always twinkling when she smile and laugh which means, it always twinkle. Her height is really tall. As if she's a model. And her lips are like also red like Laleine's.
Next and the last is named Lindsey Quijada. She's the prettiest among the four of them and also has a long black hair. Its also naturally way. She's fair complexed and also smiles a lot.
Now that you know what they look like, let's go back to the story.
When Almira, Linds, Keith and Xy went together, they truly look like they are famous. And me, the person in the middle looks like their maid. People look at my friends like they were their hero and when they see me with them, I look like the most disgusting person in the planet. Well can't blame them. Even I myself didn't know I'd be friends with pretty girls.
Nung nakauwi na ako, well, thankfully, humiga kaagad ako sa kama ko, nag wish na mas maganda sana ang araw ko kinabukasan and slept.
