They say when you are happy you enjoy the melody of a song, but when you are sad that’s when you understand the meaning of a song.
Beyond every song’s lyrics are the feelings and emotions felt by the composer.
A song is a story.
And here is mine.
I’m Frances, and just like you I’m just trying to get by, trying to find my real purpose in life.
That sounds very dramatic.
I was just kidding.
Or was I? *stern look*
I was. :P
Let’s redo my introduction about myself.
I’m Frances, Ances for short. Senior in college and I'm taking up Management.
And my story works back to four years from now.
I was a Senior in high school, I had everything planned for my life.
I was planning on taking up accountancy, having a boyfriend at 18, graduate in high school with high marks, get into one of the top Universities in the country, and have the best year in high school ever.
But how to achieve those things was the problem.
I lack motivation kasi, plus that boyfriend thing is too farfetched.
I am kind of a man hater.
I do have crushes, pero kasi once na naging crush ko ang isang lalake, instead na mas mapalapit ako sa kanya, I avoid him.
My best friend is very different from me.
She has loads of guy friends, and one of them is my crush.
“Kasi naman Ances, kelangang kausapin mo din siya minsan!” Andrea was telling me.
Andrea, as you may have already guessed is my best friend.
She likes to nag me and boss me around pero she’s really nice and very caring once you get to really know her.
“I can’t just talk to him so suddenly, mapapansin niya ang biglang change of attitude ko towards him! Mapapansin niyang crush ko siya!” I protested.
“So, that’s what you’re afraid of? Malaman niyang crush ka niya?”
“Obvious ba? Hay naku!”
Invited kasi sa birthday niya si Carlo.
Magaling si Carlo sumayaw, actually kasali siya sa dance troop ng school naming, plus sa drama club.
Bakit ko siya naging crush?
Kasi, isa siya sa pinakamatinong taong nakilala ko at ang cute-cute niya!
“Pwede bang wag nalang akong pumunta sa party mo?” I asked her, pero alam ko naman na yung sagot dun eh.
“Kapag di ka pupunta, consider it as saying you hate me.” And she was trying to make her lips to pout.
“Stop doing that and I might just go.” Then we both laughed.
I would have not come sa party niya kung pwede lang.
Kasi I had to wear a dress kasi semi-formal yung theme ng 16th birthday niya.
Half American kasi yung bff ko kaya big deal yung 16th birthday.
I was wearing a blue dress with swirly silver design and a pearl strap.
My mom was so happy to buy it for me, kasi nga I hardly buy girly stuffs before.
