Have you ever had a crush on someone you just saw in that very moment. Like it was just the first time you ever knew his existence. Eventhough he was just a stranger, he caught your full attention. As if something drives you to be more curious about him.
I'm not sure if that's what love at first sight is.
But I've experienced it when there was an NSTP orientation in our university.
Dahil sa kakulangan sa tulog ay sobrang lutang ako na umattend, dinagdagan pa ng katamaran na bumangon nang maaga. Pero dahil required ang attendance ay wala na akong ibang choice kundi ang pumunta.
Muntikan pa akong ma-late kasi naisipan ko pang umidlip ng 5 minutes na nauwi sa 2 hours. Kung hindi pa ako ginising ni Maria ay alas dose na ako magigising.
At nag isip muna ako kung babangon na ba ako o hindi pa. Bakit kasi kailangang alas otso ganapin ang orientation? Tapos alas diyes naman na nag uumpisa.
Alas tres ng madaling araw na kasi ako nakatulog dahil nawili ako masyado mag basa ng wattpad. Tipong kakapikit ko palang ay tumunog na agad ang alarm clock ko, indikasyon na kailangan ko na mag asikaso sa pag alis.
Hindi ako masyadong nakapakinig sa orientation dahil na rin kahit hindi pa nag uumpisa ay pag uwi na agad ang nasa isip ko.
The orientation is about earthquake drill, na familiar naman na ang lahat dahil mula elementary ay nag g-ganun na. They also show us the different types of fire extinguisher and after that the firefighters will demonstrate how to use it.
Nagising ang buong diwa ko nang marinig ang biglaang pag tunog ng fire alarm. I roamed my eyes and saw my classmates doing the duck, cover and hold, so I did it too.
The sound of a ringing bell stops and that's the cue for us to stand up and head to the fire exit.
They told us to form a line by section to maintain the peace and order of the orientation.
Mukha bang makaka buo pa kami ng pila pag actual earthquake na 'to?
We performed the earthquake drill as if it was an actual occurence. Then after that we were told to watch the demonstration of how to use a fire extinguisher to put out a fire.
Nang makalabas ay huminto lang kami sa tapat ng I-CON at hindi na bumaba pa sa hagdan. Balak ko pa sanang manood ng demonstration nila sa paggamit ng fire extinguisher pero ubos na ubos na ang energy ko para makipag siksikan pa sa mga nag kukumpulan na estudyante, at sobrang init pa.
Since I don't have the energy to walk anymore, I just stand next to my classmates and roamed my eyes around the venue.
Parang gusto kong pumasok ulit sa I-CON dahil naka full aircon sa loob at sobrang init dito sa labas, tho nasa may silong na kami.
I stood there quietly while scrolling through my phone, thinking if I should go home na since I've already signed the attendance sheet.
Napaangat ako ng tingin nang biglang umingay ang paligid indikasyon na may bagong batch ng students na lumabas mula sa loob ng building.
Then there is a whole class lined next to our section, I can tell that they are from the college of Agriculture based on their ID laces.
Then someone stopped beside me, he is a tall, moreno guy that have a sweet manly smell. He really got my full attention and as I tried to peek into his face— trying not to be obvious that I am looking at him.
And all I can say is that—HE IS SO FREAKIN' HANDSOME!!!
I feel like I got an energy booster from the mere sight of his perfectness.
