We high fived, placed my hand on the arm rest of his chair and he sort of held my hand for a good 10 seconds or more. It made me feel shy and awkward so I pulled it away. He even stood next to me and our shoulders brushed together. I have a faint sliver of hope that he remembers that day.
The memory is stark in my head and somehow, that is enough.

ventisette:
It makes me sad when someone likes another person and they say things like “they would never like me, though…” Shut up. You are a quality individual. You have your own special quirks and traits. You are beautiful and unique. Of course you aren’t perfect, and of course you mess up, and of course…

I’ve been staring at the screen for the past 30 minutes hoping for an idea to form in my head, some interesting story to tell, or just plain non-sense. I couldn’t come up with anything. Mostly, it’s because nothing interesting ever happens in this side of the country, and that’s according to the girl who is already asleep by 11:30.
I miss Manila more than anything else,...

My 8 year old sister's advice on boys.
Me: What do you do when you like a boy?
Sister: You tell him.
Me: And if he doesn't like you?
Sister: You kill him.

Things I learned/realized this week:
Sometimes you need to dance like no one is watching. I’ve never danced even in the privacy of my own room, but last night at the party, I let all my inhibitions go and danced along with the crowd. (maybe I got a little too much alcohol in me, but meh, it was fun) It’s good stuff.
I’m sorry I pushed you away. If I could go back to last week...

Sometimes, I wonder if I really know what I’m doing with my life. I let people down, I let myself down, I turn away from people that I love, and I make friends and push them away. I don’t know what is it in me that does this, this urge to test how far I can go before something breaks. Sometimes I’m convinced this is a delayed rebellion thing happening, I don’t know really....

"Peppermint Patty": What do you think love is, Chuck?
Charlie Brown: Well, years ago, my dad owned a black 1934 two-door sedan.
"Peppermint Patty": What's that got to do with love?
Charlie Brown: Well, this is what he told me: there was this really cute girl, see? She used to go for rides with him in his car. And whenever he'd call for her, he would always hold open the car door for her. After she got in and he had closed the door, he'd walk around the back of the car to the driver's side, but before he could get there, she would reach over and press the button, locking him out. Then she'd just sit there and wrinkle her nose and grin at him. That's what I think love is.
"Peppermint Patty": Sometimes I wonder about you, Chuck.
