2nd Semester, Year 2005 – It all started from a sketch which might eventually change everything about me.
It was afternoon and I was scheduled to have my Biology Class. I was in a rushed looking for my room knowing that minutes later I could possibly be late by then. Room 201 that’s it! I say to myself. When I enter the room, few of my classmates where their already and the rest of the faces I barely can’t recognized. It was a mixed class for different biology majors. I took the last row of seats at the back with some of my few classmates and few unknown people.
The class was not that boring, it’s just that freshmen students like me have little tolerance for lecture stuffs especially when the topic was about plant cells and its parts. So for us not to get sleepy my classmates and I do some sketching. We sketch anything that comes to our mind even our professor has been our object. I remember it once, I drew a picture of my professor and we labeled it Santa Claus. And it was passed on to the next person beside me secretly and wrote some comments on it. And then finally it reached to someone who really made me stunned for a moment.
She was seating second from the end of my right side in our row. She was seating together with her friends. She is beautiful, gorgeous and very lovely. I even remember the first time she talked to me saying “what a nice drawing” giving complement to my sketch about my professor who remains naïve on what we are doing. I was stunned for a moment by then when I was attracted to her. No words, no actions for few seconds. Since then, it became my motivation to attend my Biology class as early as possible. Seating on the same side where I can see her all the time. She looked so happy with her friends; laughing, talking and even making jokes. And it seems like I am secretly stalking on her. She got me! That’s all I can say about it. I still do make sketches but this time I usually made it secretly. I am sketching not my professor anymore but the girl few chairs on my right. She was really amazing and she makes my biology class very unforgettable. Every lecture class, I never miss a thing of looking at her secretly, completing my day happily and satisfied. I said to myself she is the girl I have been looking for although I am not sure about it.
One day, on the same class, on the same position and on the same angle I was upset. Seems the world was looking down on me when I heard the news and it was confirmed that the person next to her was her boyfriend. Ouch! It really hurts me a lot. Well, what can I do about it? I am just nobody for her. She even barely knew that I exist. I like her and she doesn’t like me in return and that’s the truth; truth that sometimes heavy enough for me to carry and unload.
Days later and school year is almost over. Things were starting to change. I seldom hear from her again. I barely see her in the campus. Days were running so fast and it’s already summer break. Although frustrated… yet I cannot do anything about it. I say to myself “I must move-on” and I guess that is the best thing for me to do.
