Fun,Fun, and More Fun..
I just had the most wonderful time in my 13-year old life..
I have to admit that yesterday was indeed such a busy day. In the morning, we took the final set of exams (and take note of this...we had FOUR exams on this day, namely: Values Education, Health, Chemistry, and Filipino). When everything was over, it was time for our Christmas party inside the classroom. Honestly, it wasn't really party because there wasn't any music around the house. The only fun time we had was when all of us opened the presents we received from the Kris Kringle and when it was time to eat. Oh well...at least it was already the end of our miseries.
Later that afternoon, it was now time for me to go to the Youth Christmas Party in our church. I absolutely had a great time there especially when Princess and Albie showed up. Guyz, I have to tell you -- they were really pretty and honestly, they even look prettier than me (no kidding!). Anyway, I laughed a lot while the party was going on. Pito was the host so maybe most of you probably know how corny he really is. I didn't know why I laughed a lot at his jokes, but I guess it's because it really sounded corny and mababawa lang talaga kaligayahan ko. But I have to admit, he was a great host. And then I finally knew why he was holding a script...he played the voice of Big Brother in the play (That was the theme for the Christmas Party). I even teased him a little when the show was over (I started calling him kuya). Hahaha...I really enjoyed my time being there.
Now, for the main event, the High School Dance. We (Albie, Princess, and I) didn't arrive at the dance on time because we let the Youth party finish and we were caught in a major traffic jam. When we arrived, we were greeted by our other friends (Mariel, Claire, Recyn, Lea, and Michael). Oh, btw, Mariel looked really pretty with her unique style in fashion. But out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that my crush, Jim glanced at me for a while. I grinned shyly when he wasn't looking anymore, but I noticed one thing: He was also wearing the same color combination like mine...orange and blue! Ok...I won't argue with my mother again about what to wear anymore (she was the one who insisted me to wear pants). Serendipity sure can play tricks on people! Then, for the whole night, all we did was dance like crazy on the dance floor! And guess what my friends told about me?! They said that they never knew that I was such a party girl. Well, it's just because I am one of the quiet ones in school, but when it's time to party, I shift to my party mode and dance the night away! Everytime we were dancing, I always try to steal a glance to where Jim was sitted. I have to admit he looks incredibly cute. To be honest, I wasn't only dancing just to have fun, but I was also dancing just to make him notice and ask me if I wanted to dance with him. When we all sat back to our tables, I noticed that Jim often looked back to where we are sitted. When the DJ's played the slow music, my heart leaped. I was already impatiently waiting for him to ask me. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Anyway, I decided to push that thought anyway and continue to dance the next set of party music. When the night almost ended, Carlos, a former classsmate of mine, pulled Jim with him and introduced him to me. While Carlos was doing the talking, I can't help notice how Jim can't look at me straight in the eye. He was somewhat...uncomfortable (Is it because I'm already right in front of him?) But, behind his discomfort, I could clearly see he's wide smile on his face (Maybe if the lights were on, I could even see him blushing. Luckily, they weren't turned on.) Then and there, the boys left (Carlos was teasing him on the way back. Poor Jim!) and I resumed dancing the night away. Finally, the dance ended. But before I left, I almost forgot to say goodbye to Claire, so I went back. But when I looked back, I saw Jim with a girl! And it looks like they were exchanging cell phone numbers! I tried to see who the girl was, but my parents were already waiting for me. I suddenly felt uncomfortable and left. Oh, how I wished it was Claire. How I wished Jim was asking my cell number from her!
Whew! This entry was sure long! But you know, last night was the greatest time I ever had. It was one of the most memorable moments I ever experienced as a teenager. Really, that night I was really feeling I was a teenager. I was surrounded by tons of party people (including my friends), my crush looked incredibly handsome, and I had 100% pure, clean fun. I even felt that I went to 100 night clubs that night because of the fun I had! Well, as for Jim, I'm still thinking of him up to now. I even remember what Lea told me. "He is obviously trying to come near to you, but he can't." You know that really made my head tick. I wonder if he has feelings for me as I to him. All of my friends think that he has a crush on me based on his behavior, but I don't want to jump to conclusions anymore. Oh well, it it's true, he would right up to me and state his feelings. In return, I would be happy and might/would tell him what I feel for him too. If not and everything was just plain coincidence, I'll just keep quiet and continue to admire him secretly.
Anyway, that's all for me now...
Bye! And advanced Merry Christmas!

life's sweetness..
The sound that sting one's ears, the smell of damp paper left outside to humidify and dehydrate, the unconscious minds and treacherous hearts were all but a part of the melodrama.
