She'll be there forever and always

She was a new student at 4th grade. At first look I thought she was the rich girl type who always speaks in English and who thinks she's all superior with all the stuff that girls want and all that. In the end, I totally got myself wrong. She's way way different than any other friend I met. She's a person who's really observant and really fun to be with. That's Katrina Velasquez. I didn't get the chance to really meet her until we were on 6th grade and we're on the same class. She always catches my attention on the first week of classes. She impresses me on how she performs in our academic classes as well as non-academic. I thought she didn't notice me for I was an average student and she was an excellent well-rounded student. Well, I was wrong all along. Our last period was P.E., as we were climbing up the stairs it happened that I was with her friends and she said good bye to all her friends and me. I was surprised that she remembered my name because she sits far across from me. That's the day I decided to be really friends with her that I thought was an impossible thing. After a week, we had new seating arrangements and I was placed in front of her. I learned a lot of things from Katrina. She shared a lot of facts to me everyday. As days go by, we became really good friends. We share experiences, advices, what we like and dislike. We talk a lot everyday. 6th grade ended and by our freshman year she had to transfer to Canada. I thought our friendship would just end there but it did not. We keep in touch through e-mail and we send e-mail to each other constantly. We still talk about a lot of things. She shares with me her plans for the future, what's happening there, her poems, stories, etc. She's also one of my few friends whom I share what I really feel and what I'm going through. We know that we'll be there for each other forever and always.

Yes I Can Always Believe In My Dreams

Say the name Bieber and all the people know who you're talking about. JBiebs, Biebs, JBieber, JB, JDB, Bieber, it's all the same. It's JUSTIN DREW BIEBER. He's considered as the most popular teenager in world. Being famous means you both have people who loves you and people who hates you. You really can't avoid people who hates you. You can't control their minds, can you? Justin is like the ideal boy of almost all the girls. He has the personality, the looks, the swag, the moves, he's a wonderful person in and out. How much more could you wish for, he's THE MAN. It's just that I really don't get the point of all those haters who's trying to bring him down. It won't get them anywhere. He love both his haters and lovers. Haters say they don't like Justin, they hate him, they hate his voice, they hate his face, then why even bother to click and re-click the dislike button on Justin's video!? They still bothered anyway. Well, I still believe that there are more people who loves Justin than the people who hates him. I am one of those people who loves him. I tell you, there's 5 million Beliebers around the world. What's a Belieber? A Belieber is a person who believes and loves Justin Drew Bieber. A Belieber knows Justin's background even before he's famous and knows a lot about Justin. They say that's obsessed, we say we're just devoted fans and we will support him no matter what. Every Belieber's dream is to at least have a glimpse at Justin moving, performing, doing his best on stage and if possible to meet him and get to know him. That has been my dream since I knew him. It would make me really happy if I can fulfill that dream. I already accepted my chances on that dream not so long ago. I have at least one chance in million chances. Giving it a shot won't hurt, right? I am up for that challenge if it's what it takes. My hope went up a little bit when he followed me back on Twitter. It was the best day. I was like screaming in front of the computer "Justin Bieber followed me back on Twitter!!' and my parents thought what happened to me. You're really lucky if Justin Bieber followed you back on Twitter because a.) He saw your name! and b.) there might be chances that he reads your tweets. I am proud to say that I am one of the 83, 154 people that he follows out of 5,065, 251 people who follows him. Even I do have little chances in my dream to come true I still believe in it. Maybe someday I could get a chance on my dream, no one knows when but I'll still be here, waiting for the opportunity. As Beliebers say: B.I.E.B.E.R= Believe In Everything Because Everything's Reachable. :D

A Beautiful Story

I know this movie was out in theaters ages ago but I just had the chance to watch it last weekend. People were telling me how wonderful and romantic this movie is and I want to see it for myself. I was bored in the middle of the night last Saturday and decided to watch it and it made me cry. Landon Carter was a bad boy who always gets his way in everything and Jaime Sullivan his total opposite. Jaime was the daughter of the Reverend, an outcast and was always bullied. One day, Landon got caught and was punished by an act of foolishness he had done in a restricted area with his friends. He got to tutor on weekends, clean some parts of the school, and have to participate on the Spring play as punishment. Jaime noticed him on Science fair and in the tutor sessions on weekends because Jaime also do tutoring in her free time. She saw him having a hard time teaching his tutee his lessons and offered him some help but he ignored her. Here comes the assigning of roles in the Spring play and Jaime got the role of the lady singing part and Landon the lead male role. Landon actually asked Jaime to help him run lines and Jaime agreed on one condition, 'not to fall in love with her'. They started run lines everyday after classes at Jaime's house. It was finally the Spring play and Landon was doing good at the first part and then Jaime comes in her pretty dress and she was dazzling. Landon was mesmerized that he forgot his lines and just said something similar to the original script. Their teacher signaled for Jaime to sing her part and there goes Jaime singing beautifully in front of the audience and all the people jolted awake. Landon then saw Jaime in a different way, clearly he likes her. At the end of the song Landon kissed Jaime but it was not part of the script and the love story began. The friends of Landon made fun of Jaime's picture from the play and Landon saved her in front of all the people. He then started doing simple but sweet things to Jaime. He gave her a pink sweater. As the days goes by, their love is getting stronger by the minute. He named a star after her, he fulfilled the wish of Jaime to be in two places at the same time, and he loved her with all his heart. The day of truth came and she had to tell him that she have Leukemia and her days are left countable. She already accepted that she have to leave the Earth someday but she never knew Landon will come to her life and make the most of it. Landon didn't believe it and he's not ready to let her go. He did all the things that he can to make her happy. He married her even if he knew that she would leave him someday and go up in the heavens. Jaime eventually left Landon but with good and happy memories. Jaime would be in Landon's heart forever and she will always watch over him. A beautiful love story of true love.

Two years that stayed in my heart.

We're always named as the noisiest section and the section who is always in trouble. That is US and we had real FUN. I was part of the Loyalty family when I was in 6th grade and for me that was the best year that I couldn't forget. I remember that first day of school when my heart shattered when I found out that I was separated from all of my best buds. I sat at the middle awkwardly, nervously glancing at my new classmates who's entering the classroom. I was not sure what to do but just stare at them. I just knew one face very well and it was my friend since Prep. My mind was racing and I was on the verge of tears but then I said 'hi' to a few people and mingled with them. In the first weeks I got to know each of my classmates better and starting to feel I belong. It's a great feeling, the feel of love and everyone accepting you. I realize that you really don't need to always stick with your own group but to explore because there is still a whole wide world and you meet a lot of new friends. A lot of new faces. I gained true friends in 6th grade, friends that are always in my heart. Even if they're already far away from me and they're in different countries, they still reach out to me, talk to me, comfort me and makes me feel loved.

There is whole lot of new faces, different kinds of new people, and different way of gaining friends in my freshman year. It's also a year full of joy and tears. I can say that we're all different kinds of people in our own special way gathered in one section. You can say we cannot all connect with each other and won't fall together like puzzle pieces at first glance because we vary but we prove you wrong. We love each other and care for each other like sisters. We don't hesitate to ask each other for help but we're always there for each other and work as a team but not as an individual. Our class adviser gave up in changing our seats because wherever we are seated we can't keep our mouth shut because we always share stories with each other. We're just that close that we are all comfortable with each other. Yes, we had fights but those are experiences that we had learned lessons from. We have the bond, we connect, we're like networks that can relate with each other. We had memories that we'll keep in our hearts and carry as our life goes on.
