I'm Soleina. I came from Australia, but for now I have lived here in the Philippines for almost 6 months. I'm going to live and study here, but I don't know until when. I'm in my first year, and it's my first day here in UP. Because I'm new and I don't know anyone here, I'm talking to my diary. This totally proves my introversion. Well, it's true that I am an introvert, and I seldom initiate conversation because I'm very awkward about how I will approach the person and I don't know how I will continue talking as well. I am more fond of observing than talking.
But, I guess I will be dealing a lot of extrovert people here.
"Hi? Soleina right? Kobe nga pala." And here he is the first one who talked to me. I smiled "Ah yes, nice to meet you Kobe" and I lent my hand to shake hands. "Where did you come from nga pala?" tanong naman niya sakin na medyo nahihiya pa maybe he's shy lang talaga.
"I came from Australia but I have already visited this country for vacation maybe 2 or 3 times already" Talking to him is very tense since I am not too comfortable in talking but I guess he's a good person to be with. Going here in the Philippines, my goal is to study and not to make friends because I already predicted I might not have one. However, I know I am the new one so I have to adjust. But, for clarification there's nothing wrong with Kobe. He's a nice and great person or communicator. And maybe, he noticed my tense face"ah is it okay that I'm talking to you? am I not making you uncomfortable for the sudden communication?" he ask me like he feels something awkward. at napakamot naman sya sa batok nya "No, no it's okay naman I don't have any kaibigan din e" pero sana magkaroon ako ng friends since even though its not listed in my goal I wanted to enjoy this college journey here.
As we continue talking about random things, someone just shouted on the other side of the room and napatingin naman kami doon "Hoy Kobe mukhang close mo na si miss transferee ipakilala mo naman kami" nanunudyong sabi nung lalaking sumigaw. "Oo nga Kobe. Baka naman!" Sabi nung babaeng medyo intimidating tignan "tara kase lumapit!" sagot naman nung babaeng may angelic face she's pretty I admit it.
"Soleina nga pala" I extended my arms to them para magpakilala since mukha naman silang mabait diba. Edi if not I'll just run to my twitter "I'm Andrea nga pala" and she lend her hand din sakin. "Nice to meet you! You're?" I extended my arm doon sa lalaking sumigaw kanina "Abel nice to meet you" then he smile cute ng smile ha. Well. I admit he really sport a good smile I won't deny."uhm Im angelina" pagpapakilala naman nung babaeng mukhang tahimik "Ah so--" I was about to say something but I was cut off by Angelina's shout.
"HALAAAAA guysss sa kabilang section si Ray Myghaadd" pagsigaw nito ng may kasama pang pagyugyug kay Kobe na mukha namang 'di nagustuhan ni Kobe.
"what?! Seriouslyyy omyyghaddd" sigaw naman ni Andrea
"Sumbong ko talaga kayong dalawa kay Sean, close sila diba tsk tsk"
"Ah he's Ray he's an engineering student he's really good in cooking plus his looks is so damn gorgeous! And he's a varsity in their program" paliwanag sakin ni Angelina na parang 'di narinig yung sinabi ni Kobe about his boyfriend I guess. So may boyfriend sila? siguro ano kase may binanggit na pangalan or baka naman kapatid. I'm judgmental next thing that I won't deny. So, I look to the guy they are pertaining. But, what something that caught me off guard is who's the person they are pointing. Medyo nahila ata ang dila ko kaya hindi agad ako nakasagot. Sino ba namang 'di makakakilala sa kanya. fvck.
"Yup, Ray Allen Torres?" "I know him by face." I said it awkwardly. And it is precisely at this point that they are caught off guard. "How come you knew him?" "Are you even related?" Andrea inquired. "I guess if they don't move, they'll stay in the same village where I'm currently living." I knew him. He's the guy that I am always searching for when I am visiting the Philippines. It's been more than 2 or 3 years since I started watching him from a far.I don't know how long, but I stopped it already.
"TALAGA?! can we visit your house then?" pagbibiro ni andrea sakin. However, we were cut off in our conversation as well when Abel interrupted us.
"Sorry girls kami naman" sabi nitong si Abel mukhang chick boy nga ah "Kaklase pala natin sya?" Napatingin naman ako sa pintuan kung saan nakatingin ang apat. "She's Analain she's the defending miss UP 2018 every year ginagawa yon dito" si Kobe naman ngayon ang nagpaliwanag
"ah it's like the most awaited part of every school year" random thought lang kunwari may paki ako."Yes pati na rin UP Fair" he added. "Ay, totoo ba kaklase natin si bitchesa?" Andrea said and it furrows my eyebrows. "Beh, pag insecure tahimik." Abel said to Andrea while putting his index finger in his lips signalling to silent.
Natigil ang usapan naming lima ng may klase na.
Inip na inip na ko sa oras na to 12 na at 12:30 ang cut ng classes namin kaya naman naisipan kong magiwan ng sticky note sa desk ko na may na kalagay na "GOODLUCK HAVE A NICE DAY" "Ano yan Soleina?" pasimpleng tanong ni Kobe sakin ng mapansing may kinakapit ako sa desk "ah nothing its just a letter I'm just bored and I'm curious if someone will notice this note" its just a random thought and action as well. I am just bored and this might be removed by the janitor once they cleaned this room. Kobe just shrugged his shoulders."Well, good luck! I wish the janitors won't remove that"
(Class hours for AM session end)
SOMEONE'S POINT OF VIEW
: "Sinong naglagay ng note na to dito?" I asked myself when I saw pink heart shaped sticky note in my desk. I just shrugged my shoulder and I kept the sticky note paste on the desk brows furrowed and still confused about the letter.
: oy bro ano yan?.....
