Sometimes, hindi mo aakalain ang mga bagay na ibinabato sa'yo ng buhay. Hindi mo man gusto, pero kailangan mong tanggapin. Wala naman sa wala kang choice, pero parang gano'n na rin.
Starting a new beginning sounds great, doesn't it?
But sometimes, new beginnings come with unfamiliar faces, lonely hallways, and the fear of not knowing where you belong.
Maybe this is just another challenge life decided to throw my way. Or maybe...It's where I'll find the friendships I never expected, the memories I never planned, and the person I never thought I'd meet.
After all, every game begins with an opening move.

Shawn looked at me with a puzzled face. "What are you writing?" I looked up from my new journal and smiled. "I'm writing everything that has happened lately, so that I don't forget. If I don't write this quickly, I'll forget it. And besides, this way I will know what not to do the next time I meet a handsome boy." He smiled. "So, basically it's an idiot's guide to falling in love?" I laughed. "Yes, exactly." We both stayed silent for a few seconds, just looking into each other's eyes. "Wait, did you just call me an idiot?" He looked at me, trying to contain his laughter, but he couldn't. * There's a thin line between love and hate. Very few are brave enough to cross it.
