It was never a bore whenever I think about my 1st year in college. So far, it was the best academic year I've ever experienced. I've always thought na magiging mahirap na ang college, magiging busy na, mawawalan na ng oras para gumimik kasi matatambakan na kami ng ga-bundok na school work. Ang sabi kasi sa'kin ng parents ko, masarap daw ang high school life. Ibang-iba daw doon ang college life dahil kanya-kanya na.
Well, yeah. What my parents told me was indeed true. My college life was waaaayyy different from my high school life. It was more fun, more exciting, and I was able to learn a lot of things not only inside the campus but here I learned much more from the outside world. Oo, mas naging gala ako but it never became a distraction sa studies ko. At dito napatunayan ko na there are people who you'd be intertwined to in a non-romantical way pero mamahalin mo sila ng higit pa sa buhay mo.
IN MY CASE, THOSE PEOPLE ARE MY FRIENDS: VOGUEHZLEE. :)
We started out as six. Malaki ang pasasalamat ko kay April Monica Cruz, ang aking ex-bestfriend dahil kung hindi siya naligaw ng room nung first day eh malamang hindi ko sila naging barkada. Sa harap kasi ako umupo but April ushered me to the back and made me sit beside her. Buti na lang talaga naligaw siya. Hehe. :D
Ang ganda noh? Ako yan. Haha! Joke. Hindi rin artista yan. Model lang. Haha. Anyway, this girl is COLLEEN FAYE CRISOSTOMO. Sa Bogsli, siya yung una kong naka-chikahan kasi seatmate ko siya.My first impression of her was, maganda pero maarte. Ewan ko ba kung bakit yun ang naisip ko tungkol sa kanya at that time. Napahiya naman ako sa marumi kong isip when I found out that this person is very simple, nice, quiet, and reserved. Plus, she's very smart. Siya lang naman ang may pinakamataas na GWA sa block namin nung first sem. :)
Colleen, kahit malakas ka mang-asar, okay lang kasi magaling ka naman bumanat. Haha! Kidding aside, thank you for being super nice to me nung first day. I was a complete stranger and you know nothing but my weird name pero binigyan mo pa din ako ng papel. Haha! Stay as simple and as smart as you are, I admire you for that. And kung matuloy man ang modeling career mo, wag mo kong kalilimutan. Haha! I love you, girl! I'm always here. :)
MARICAR BELARMINO. I never even thought na magiging ka-close namin siya. Iba kasi yung sinamahan niyang "group" nung mga first few days. Actually, I really can't remember how we've gotten close but whatever that reason is, I'm more than glad that we did. :)She served as the "ate" of the group. Hindi ko na ire-reveal ang age niya kas i baka magtampo siya sa'kin. Hehe. Isa rin siya sa mga magagaling sa block namin. Why wouldn't I be surprised? She was a transferee from UP Manila eh. Pero kahit ganun, with her age and academe, marunong siyang makisama sa'ming lahat. I never felt inferior whenever we're together. Parang ka-age ko lang. You'll only get to notice her maturity pagdating sa pagbibigay ng advices and sa pagtreat niya sa responsibilities niya.
Ate Macar, all those times na tinulungan mo ko, I think I never had the chance to say how grateful I am. Thank you sa lahat-lahat. Pati na din sa mga panlilibre mo. Sorry kung minsan kinukulit ka namin sa panlilibre. Hehe. Love you, ate! Sana mahanap mo na uli si "MANONG". :)
Given the chance to choose a person besides my boyfriend na makasabay ko sa jeep ng 24 hours, without any hesitation and second thoughts, APRIL ROSE ESPANTO kagad ang isasagot ko. :)Soooooobrang sarap kadaldalan ng babaeng to. Our spotlight-worthy moments often happen while riding a jeepney on our way home. To say na "nagkwentuhan kami" is an understatement. It's more like, nagrecite kami ng sampung nobela sa kwentuhan namin. Haha! It's always been fun talking to April. Minsan kahit alam kong hindi na siya nakakarelate sa kwento ko, nakikinig pa din siya. She is a great listener as well as a great speaker. Pag nagkasabay kami paguwi, nakooo. Expect a novel of gossips and stories blabbing out of our mouths.
April, namimiss ko na yung mga moments natin. Sobra. Sana one time, magkasabay uli tayo sa jeep para kwentuhan ever uli. I want to make up for all those times na hindi kita nasabayan. Thanks for being a great friend, I love you for that. :)
Kung may jeepney buddy ako, may seatmate buddy din ako. PAULA BIANCA FERNANDEZ has got to be one of the jolliest persons in class. Sa sobrang masayahin niyan, nagiging maingay siya. Haha! Kaya it's very easy to notice if she's not around or if there's something wrong with her. Block 19/2 wouldn't be complete without her silly jokes. :)Hindi lang naman siya madaldal kapag kwentuhan time. Bonggang-bongga din siya pagdating sa oral and written examinations. She may not take some things seriously but when it comes to her studies, hands on siya. Makwento din, madrama minsan ang buhay. Haha! At ang isa sa mga pinakagusto ko sa kanya is HINDI SIYA MADAMOT SA SAGOT. :))
Pau, namimiss na kita. Thank you for never failing to make me feel that you're always ready to lend a helping hand whenever I need it. Kahit NBSB ka eh, tinatry mo pa din akong tulungan sa mga kadramahan ko sa lovelife. Don't change, madaming tao ang natutuwa at matutuwa pa sa'yo. You're a star. I love you! :)
I've always missed her eversince she was transferred to another block. Pano, isa siya sa mga karamay ko sa kalokohan at kababuyan. Haha! MA. KATRINA TEODOSIO' s merry laugh, charming smile, and optimistic outlook is simply infectious.Naalala ko pa nung first day, I saw her enter and nagandahan ako sa kanya. Haha! She was also my seatmate kaya lang hindi pa kami masyadong nagpapansinan noon. She was the first one to approach me, though. One thing significant that we have in common is our passion for writing. She's a great writer, great photographer, and a great English student. There's never a dull moment with her. Minsan tatawa na lang kami ng tatawa for no apparent reason. We're both mentally deranged persons. Haha!
Moo! Sana maulit uli yung Baywalk moment natin. Hehe. Thanks for being a great friend and I sincerely wish you the best of everything. You deserve it. Keep on making other people smile and laugh. Thanks so much for the wonderful moments. Love you. :)
Though I am close to all of them, I could say that I am closest with no less than the drop-dead gorgeousness herself, ELAINE SUE ZARAGOZA.This girl and I have a lot in common kaya click agad ang bonding namin. Our idea of bonding is cursing each other and making mean comments towards other people. Haha! Joke. Kung may taong kasing dumi kong mag-isip, si Elaine na yun. Haha! Maloko kaming dalawa eh. Pag magkasama kami, we laugh a lot. Mababaw ang kaligayahan naming dalawa. Setting aside her wacky side, she's also a great adviser. At! Malaking factor din ang pagkain sa pagiging über close namin. No wonder we have sexy figures. Haha!
Pussy, magbago na tayo. Haha! Hindi. Wag kang magbabago. You are a beautiful person, inside and out. Thank you for always being there whenever I needed a listening ear. The moments that we shared are worthy to be treasured forever, hinding-hindi ko makakalimutan yung mga yun, lalo na yung mean and yucky moments. Haha! You've been through a lot so I wish nothing but complete happiness for you. I love you. :)
Eto miss na miss ko na eh. Ang tagal na din kasing hindi nagpaparamdam. Kahit isang "awooo" man lang, wala. Ewan ko nga din if he'd be able to read this but what the hey, DONNIE RAY CRUZ deserves to be a part of this blog post.Suplado to nung una. Tatahi-tahimik. Sa likod siya nakaupo and wala man lang imik. One time I was able to walk with him papuntang SM Manila. I tried to start a conversation pero wala. Pero when that time came na we became close, AY GRABE! He was crazier than any of us! And because of that, he was always a good and fun company. Pag kasama siya, iba ang atmosphere pag nagpapatawa siya.
Donnie. Leche ka. Magparamdam ka naman. Miss na miss ka naming lahat. May Friendster ka, may Friendster kami, magcomment ka. Haha! Thanks for the fun times and the crazy moments. Whenever you need me, I'm here. Love you. :)
Honestly, kulang pa yung mga pinagsasabi ko to say how much I really am happy and thankful for having them in my life. I owe them a part of the person that I am now. Kung hindi ko sila nakilala, I wouldn't be like this. And everytime I reminsice all those moments that we had, be it fun or sad, I can't thank God enough for blessing me with such wonderful friends. Our memories are priceless. There's nothing more I could ask for except for a lifetime friendship.
BOGSLIIIII. Happy 1 year! Ang bilis ng oras no? Parang kelan lang nandun pa tayo sa walls, nagpipicture-picture, nag-eemote. Then we came up with VOGUEHZLEE nang dahil sa maruruming isip. Haha! Yung mga sensitive noon, naging polluted na din ang utak. Haha! Pero hindi lang naman karumihan ng isip ang naging foundation ng friendship natin. It was the care and love that strengthened us. I never had such friends who could love more than you guys could. The best kayo. I hope and pray na sana, kahit uugod-ugod na tayo, wala nang ngipin, at puti na ang buhok sa taas at baba eh tayo-tayo pa din. No other people could ever replace all of you. The day that we all got close was the day that I lost a worthless person whom I used to love very much, and God gave me you guys to show me that I deserve to be loved and cared for. And that's exactly what you all did. I LOVE ALL OF YOU SO, SO, SO MUCH! Cheers to an everlasting friendship. :)
P.S.:VAGUNDA EXTENDS HER GREETINGS AND SHE WANTS US TO PAY HER A VISIT. IT'S BEEN AGES. :)
