pages i wrote at fifteen
-a compilation of short stories i wrote during high school.
there was a time when i was fifteen, staying up past midnight with earphones on, typing stories instead of sleeping. when school vacants was my fave subject to write random stories in my mind.
a time when every chapter was written with too much emotion and dramatic lines. back when Wattpad felt like a second home -when comment sections were chaotic, stories were messy and cringey but sincere, and every update felt like the biggest event of the week, lol.
this book is a compilation of the short stories i wrote during those years.
some are soft and super random, while some are painfully dramatic (for a 15 year old author wannabe before), while mostly are awkwardly written, and some still carry pieces of who i was back then -a fifteen-year-old girl who romanticized campus crushes, heartbreaks, and almost-loves. a highschool girl who believed every feeling deserved to be written down before it disappeared.
i'm publishing them again not because they're perfect, but because they hold memories of an era i never really outgrew at sobrang nami-miss ko na ngayon (ur writer is already working)
for the readers who also grew up in the golden days of Wattpad -the jeje typings, the diary-like narration, the "update ka na author pls," the stories read at 2AM while pretending to sleep when our parents check us - this one's for you.
