Leaving My Comfort Zone

This blog is about the time when I was still on my last year in high school till my first days in college. Well, I just want to remember it, that's why. 

I remember back then that I was kinda excited to leave my school and at the same time afraid of meeting new people. You see, I'm not the friendly type of person. I'm used to stay on the side and wait for people to approach me. But college is different. I know that If I didn't make a move, I'll be a loner my entire college life. So, I made a tough decision, not so hard but still: I need to talk more and approach other people more! So, my entire summer was wasted on me spacing out and thinking of things like this. Hehe, although I spend most of my time in front of the computer for browsing updates, pictures and videos of my beloved Hey! Say! JUMP. And we also went to Cebu and Bohol for a one week vacation. But every night before I sleep, I'm always thinking about this. Oh! And also, I know that I'm going to miss my high school group of friends. You see, we weren't able to bond for a long time because we only got close during the last part of the third semester.

Luckily or unluckily, I had this high school classmate of mine who happens to be my blockmate. But I guess, it ended up as a bad luck. Though, I was kinda thankful at first that I have someone to talk to during my lonely days in my college life, BUT, he always irritates me and nags me. Yeah! I know, I'm complaining again instead of being thankful, but hey! I do have a peaceful life that I wanted to have some time. So, moving on, during LPEP (orientation) days, I was with him. Luckily, there's this girl who approached him. You see, we were sitting and watching inside an auditorium for the first activity. So there's this girl, uhmmm, let's call her Autumn. So Autumn approached him and befriended him, then he introduced Autumn to me and we became friends instantly. Yeah, that fast. We were together and sitting beside each other during the classroom sessions. 

Yipee! I found a friend. Autumn is a funny and cheerful girl. She tells a lot of her high school experiences to me. I enjoyed her company and I was also thankful that she does most of the talking because I'm more comfortable on doing the listening. (Hehe, that's why I was kinda surprised when a friend of hers told Buttercup, and Buttercup told me, that she was a demure when she was still in high school.xD). 

Before our day ended, we also met another girl, that's where Buttercup comes in. Buttercup was with a certain guy most of the time (that's why I thought they're somewhat related by blood or by emotion, but she already told us that he was just a plain classmate from her sophomore days in high school). Nevertheless, we got close to her despite the fact of our assumption. Buttercup was a quiet girl; she looks very refined and observant that when I talked to her, I did most of the talking because it felt awkward to have a silence between us.

Until now, the three of us are still friends and close, although we were added in number, the three of us still remains stuck together. Autumn is still very cheerful and funny (although he hates this certain guy who we call Q), on the other hand, Buttercup uhmmm, changed? She was more talkative now and tells a lot of experiences, too. I learned that she was always like that; it's just that she was somewhat shy at first and observes a lot. Whew!

Haha, so maybe some of you wonders how I became close with them. I know, because some of our blockmates ask me the same question. But hey, if it weren't for these two, I'll be loner during my entire stay in college. So, I thank them a lot. I hope they can bear with me if I have a short temper sometimes or moody or any negative attitude that I have.=)

P.S.: If you know who the guy I'm talking about is, please don't tell him what I've said about him here. xD
