....butterflies in the stomach...what an UNDERSTATEMENT!

they say falling in love is like falling off a cliff...

or getting butterflies in your stomach...

or like getting a sugar high after eating way too much chocolate or drinking too much Coke...

that's all an understatement...

but am i really IN LOVE?


Okay so fine, let me tell you all the details first...

it was like any ordinary school day...i had just gotten dismissed from my math 1 class when out of nowhere this really cute guy passes in front of me on my way down the KA steps. i almost freaked out.

no, it's not like he's the FIRST cute guy I've ever seen, it's just that lately, well, ever since I got to Baguio I haven't really been looking around because I've really just been trying to adjust to living alone and not trying to be homesick all the time... So, well this guy was like...well, the first cute guy I've noticed since I got here.

Anyway, it's like I'm frozen on the spot for a few seconds, watching him head down the stairs when my friend Jenna grabs me and asks me why I look like a lost kitten (I have no idea what she means by that, by the way...). Anyway, my voice is completely lost and I simply resort to pointing to the cute hunk of a guy heading down the stairs in front of us.

"Ikaw din?!" Jenna half whispers, half screams in my ear.

I look at her wondering what she could mean by that. It doesn't take her too long to decipher my look and goes on to explain that he seems to have been the fixation of so many other girls in our block.

I honestly actually didn't even hear half of what she said.

Anyway, turns out the cute guy's name is Jeremy and that he's in my Math 1 class too, which shows how oblivious I've been these past few months (Spare me! I've been really homesick lately...). Anyway, after that day that he begin to exist in my world I really haven't stopped thinking about him or wanting to see him in class or even around school.

Okay, okay...I know what I feel isn't like LOVE or anything even close to that but seriously...you see something miraculous happened to me yesterday...

I was at the lower canteen with May (another blockmate of mine) waiting for our turn to tell Manang what we wanted to buy when Jeremy walks over to me and asks me-

"Ikaw si Red 'di ba?"

At this point I am rendered mute.

"Wala kasi ako kahapon sa Math 1. Ano ba ginawa niyo?"

I have no idea how exactly, but I was able to mutter-

"Discuss lang."

Jeremy smiles, thanks me and walks off.

I had butterflies in my stomach.

I felt like I was on a sugar high.

It was as if I was falling off a bottomless cliff.

So, is this love?
