CRAZY FOR YOU

Friendster really offers alot of surprises and i got some of it. I had been searching here in friendster for one particular person that i used to know in high school. I tried to recall her complete name but i really couldnt spot the right one. I kept on trying, rumbling all the letters to possibly hit the right combination of her name, then suddenly to my surprise, i had found one result from that particular search. A picture of that friendster account result had brought me flashes of memories that i had in highschool.

I was in my 4th year when I got to know this young and sweet beautiful lady from the freshmen group. Her eyes and smile really captured my attention and my heart was like a ball that was being dribbled every time I saw her. I was so eager to know her but I was too timid and shy to approach. But the feeling was really so strong. Then there was this one event in school where all the students were busy searching and choosing the club to join in. I was a member of Konsiyensa Club, it’s a Science club, I was with it since first year. Me and my friends were roaming around the school, looking around and taking some peek to the rooms of other clubs until we reach one room, a room of Glee Club. From outside of that room, in my peripheral view I knew right there and then, that it was her. I turned my head to have that sight but when my eyes were already straightly focused to that breath taking view I feel elated and my surrounding changes to something heavenly like I was at the garden of eden gazing at the charm of Eve from a distance. My heart leaped and beat so fast and my face turned to flush. I kept it to myself, didnt tell my friends of what had transpired, I smiled. On that day, I had decided to join the glee club.

The meeting of each club was weekly, and the audition for the Glee club was still open. So a week after that day, I went back to that room again for the audition eventhough I knew that I didn’t have the voice to sing. But I tried, and luckily I got in. I was so happy then. So days and weeks had passed we became closer and closer. Until I tried showing my likeness to her, letting her feel her importance to me. There was no txt, no cellphone. The way of our communication was through writing, through letter writing. Up to now I consider that letter writing is still the romantic way of showing affection through a communication. I managed in sending her letters through her bestfriend and to some friends that I knew in freshmen group. We exchanged letters that contain daily events in school and home, sweet quotes that we got from books, poems we personally compose, and exchanging Favorite songs. Oh I still remember that song that I sent to her as my dedication. A song from Ogie Alcasid entitled MAHAL KITA WALANG IBA and she also sent a song for me from Vina Morales version of SANA AY IKAW NA NGA. Those songs were hits during that time.

MAHAL KITA WALANG IBA


Eto na naman ang puso ko
Tumitibok-tibok at mayroong binubulong
Tila mayrong nadarama
Umiibig na yata sa'yo, sinta

Refrain
Kaya't sana'y pakinggan mo
Ako ay di nagbibiro
Sa puso ko'y walang katulad mo

Chorus
Mahal kita, walang iba
Paniwalaan mo sana ako, sinta
Mahal kita, walang iba
Sa puso ko'y walang katulad mo
Mahal ko

At kung mayron kang nadarama
Sana'y wag nang itago, sinta
Pag-ibig na wagas ang alay sa iyo
Pangako ko sa iyo'y di maglalaho.




SANA AY IKAW NA NGA

Anong kailangan kong gawin
Upang malaman mo
Ikaw ay minamahal ko
Kailangan ko'y katulad mo
Sa buhay kong ito
Nag-iisa lang sa mundo

Dati'y nasaktan na 'ko
Takot nang magtiwala
Ayoko na sanang umibig pa
Ngunit ika'y ibang-iba
Sa lahat ng nakilala
Sana ay ikaw na nga

Anong kilangan kong gawin
Upang matigil na
Ang kabaliwan kong ito
Sumpa ko sa sarili'y
Hinding-hinding hindi na
Ngunit heto na naman ako
Hindi na papipigil pa
At di na paaawat
Sinisigaw na ang pangalan mo

Ikaw talaga'y ibang-iba
Sa lahat ng nakilala
Sana ay ikaw na nga


So sad that It didn’t continue when I graduated and entered college. Schedules differs and prioritization sets in. But occasionally we got to see each other when they to went to our university for there game, because she was also a member of the Volleyball team. But eventhough we were apart, we kept on writing to each other until the time that we didn’t notice the communication stopped. I heard when she graduated highschool she went to cebu for her college. And that’s also one of that factors that we lost communication. Years had passed, so long, and after all through friendster I got to see her. I was so happy at first in seeing her account. She had turnedmature but the eyes and the smile remains the same, very captivating. Browsing her account, looking at her pictures there I realized that after 10 years, my feeling still remains the same but the situation isn’t anymore. She is now a licensed Optimetrist according to her account, and already got a son. She is married. Ouch!!! That really hurts bigtime. I sent an invite to her in friendster and I wait for her approval. And I still wait and will wait. Im not sure if she is base here in Bacolod, but I really do wish that we get the chance to see each other again face to face. Cant wait for that moment. I don’t know why im still crazy for her. Im still CRAZY FOR YOU.
