When I Saw You

YOU

Another school year.

Nagpaparamdam pa rin siya minsan but I took a courage to neglect him. Graduating student na kami, just how we dreamt back then. I learned to love my course due to my major. And I'm proud of myself 'coz I really do excell on my majors. I now have a family in school. TLE Family.

This last year on my college life is a blast. I have achieved and proved something to myself. I'm happy and contented, I may say. New and old classmates in class. We're unique. We move as one, team work, unity. Name it! I matured, somehow. Ikaw ba naman na mga matured rin ang kasama, di ka ba mahahawa? Karamihan sa kanila mommies na, kaya better ang guidance sa aming mga young ones.

I'm enjoying my college life to the fullest. Dumating ang internship. Lahat kami ay nagpractice teaching outside the school premises. And guess what, I'm one of the two student's that excells great during the practicum days. Okay na ako. Okay na rin naman siguro ang lahat.

Graduation day.
I'm so proud of myself and for every one of us. We made it! And I'm also proud of him. He also made it. Just like what we dreamt. I was thinking about having a picture together while we are on these black toga's for remembrance but we failed coz we've been busy to each others life. And if not, how am I suppose to approach him? I don't know how. And just neglected the idea.

In God's grace, all is well. And I'm taking now a review for the coming September Licensure Examination for Teachers this coming September 20**. Hopefully, we can all passed the board exam. May God bless us.

Now playing: When I Saw You by Bumkey (Please play the music while reading this. It's the Korean OST of Hwayugi.)

July 22, 20**

It's Sunday. May review na naman. Inaantok pa ako habang nasa bus. Nasa byahe ako papuntang Daet. Nanuod pa kasi ako ng Kdrama kagabi. 8 AM na, at 8 AM ang start ng review namin, so I guess I'm late? Haha. Nevermind. Late naman lagi ang mga nagtuturo sa amin kaya okay lang.

Napanagipan ko pala siya kanina. It was fun. Matagal ko na rin syang hindi nakikita. It was since last graduation day. But that was fine. No hard feelings. But I never expected that this day would be the day that I'll be seeing him again.

🎶 When i saw you...🎶

I saw you again with your usual get-up. Wearing those jeans, red hooded jacket, a pair of rubber shoes, and your backpack hanging on your shoulders.

🎶 When I loved you...🎶

"Hmmm~" I synchronised with the tune by humming.

🎶Did you miss me? 🎶

I thought I was just hallucinating kasi kulang ako sa tulog but, no. You're real. Pinara mo ang bus para makasakay ka. Papunta ka ring daet.

🎶 I wish. I wish you're next to me... 🎶

My heart beats irregularly. I never felt this way, not again this time. Ikaw lang naman ang nakakagawa nito. Iba kasi kapag sa kanila.

🎶 When I leave you...🎶

Pumasok ka sa bus. Nagkatinginan tayo. Pero sabay na yumuko. And you passed by me.

🎶 Always behind of you...🎶

Matapos ang kanta. 'Yun ang hudyat ng lahat. Na ang lahat ay sa kahapon na lamang. Na kung tayo man, gagawa na lang ang tadhana para sa bagay na 'yun.

At kung hindi man, it's a lesson for us. Because life gives us either a blessing, or a lesson. And I think you're the latter that once have been a blessing. I may not personally thanked you for everything, I'll just thanked you silently.

Marami tayong pagdadaanan sa buhay. Mahirap pero kakayanin. Dahil nagmahal ka lang naman at walang mali doon. Wala mali kapag nagmamahal. Maaaring nadarapa ka, pero kelangang bumangon. Hindi pwedeng ma-stuck ka na lang don.

Matuto tayong pahalagahan ang oras, ang mga mahal natin at ang lahat ng bagay. Dahil hindi natin alam kung kelan ito mawawala sa atin. Value each and every that counts.

Time heals all wounds. May oras talaga ang lahat. If you're in pain, endure it. Mamamalayan mo na lang. Wala na ang sakit. Masaya ka na.

Sabi pa nga, There's so many fish in the sea. If that's the case, let's sail! Lol. I'll agree to that. Dahil sa buhay, hindi lang naman isang tao ang darating sa atin, marami sila. Nasa atin naman kung mags-stay at kung paano i-handle ang sitwasyon.

Life is a choice. There's no constant in life except for change. No more explanation for that, easy to derive on your own. *winks*

Everything has its own time. And in God's grace, we will found our true happiness, besides our family and friends. Your THE ONE will come, just like how HE came into my life when I'm a mess on my own. He became my light, my strength and happiness, my remedy.

And soon my reminiscing stopped, only to find out that it's only...

WHEN I SAW YOU.
