To Owe One For
I know... I'm 19 days too late saying this but... Happy New Year everyone! Hopefully, what ever you wished for 2014 will come true. :) As for me, I still stuck to the generally same resolutions I wished each year, like becoming a better person and bla bla bla. But there is one in significance I wished for: "I wish 'it' were real, and that 'it' goes on forever" (I'd praise you if you knew this has to do with Romance. :3).
Oh, in case you don't know me well, my Birthday was exactly a week ago, that is on 11th January. Too bad I had no real surprises. :( Anyway, to celebrate 19 Years Of Age, I'm gonna spurt out another 19 Facts about me all over this blog page (Decript "In New End Dose" if you're unsure what I'm implying here. :P). If you want to see the original 20 Facts about me, you can look it up in Instagram @JJPaoloSA. With that, I shall now present...
Another 19 Facts About Me
1) I look through anything that is not much of other people's concern, like knowing various car plate numbers of a particular bus service.
2) The furthest I've traveled to is my home country, the Philippines.
3) I used to play the Piano up to its Grade 2 level.
4) Huge fan of action-paced Marvel Movies, like the Iron Man films.
5) I speak four languages: English, Chinese, Tagalog, and French.
6) I feel more comfortable with an outing that includes at most 3 people.
7) While at home, if I watch something that brings humor, even at the slightest bit, I would laugh hysterically loud.
8) I'd do my best to look, feel, and smell classy whenever I want to.
9) I have the desire to experience snow... Real snow!
10) I sleep in a Fetus position, perhaps its because I want to mimic what it is like to cuddle with someone.
11) Favorite car brand: Subaru.
12) As a kid, I drew a hecking lot of SBS bus designs, bus stops, and maps.
13) I'd take bus over MRT over taxi. Nuff' said.
14) It is annoying if I ever hear someone tell me why I ain't having rice with a meal, especially if that meal is from a fast food restaurant.
15) The #1 thing I'd look forward to in any Romance shows or movies is obviously the kiss scenes.
16) If there is a girl I harbor a crush on, I'd stare at her for a few seconds before I turn away or she turns to towards me.
17) I had some really embarrassing moments when I was in primary school, but I dare not tell to anyone in detail.
18) I experience sleep paralysis sometimes, whenever I am extremely tired.
19) If there is one unforgettably surprising moment I want to experience in the future, it'd be the first time a girl I have fallen for says she loves me. *Extremely blushing*
Just when you all thought I'd be ending this blog here. Well... You're wrong, for I still want to share with you a recount on what happened in school on 16th January 2014, because it suits well to the title of this blog, which is also intended to be a pun to 2014. Hehehe! Anyway, let's begin, shall we?
---
When the clock had hit 5:30pm, my last school lesson of the day had finally ended. I immediately lifted off from my chair to obtain my phone which was charged at the other end of the room. Upon returning, I noticed that she (AKA The shortest girl in my class whom I... Erm... *Blush again, God dangit*) was already gone. I wished she could've waved goodbye at me but oh well. Perhaps she was in a rush to meet someone.
Then, as I was blindly packing my stuff into my blue sling bag, a guy friend of mine noticed something greenish on the table I and her shared. It was her phone, which was placed in a lime green holder. I was shocked as in why had I not noticed it immediately when I returned. Anyway, I decided to confirm myself whether it belonged to her. And yes it was, as her EZ-Link card was found tucked under the cover. Looking at its photo, she kinda looked like a young but cu... *Blush again. Seriously...!?* Never mind, better get back to the main story.
Knowing that she just left the room a minute or two ago, I quickly gushed out to see if she still was still in the lobby outside the room facilities. Avast, she was nowhere to be seen. With that, I immediately returned back to the room to tell my friend that she was not there anymore. But it looks like all of the responsibility of returning her phone shifted to me, as he also needed to leave school to meet his other friends. Fortunately, another guy friend decided to give me company for some time while we find ways of locating her.
I had decided that we should wait at the lobby until 6pm, because there is always a natural instinct whereby if you realized that you left something behind, you'd retrace your steps back to where you were moments ago. She has her EZ-Link tucked inside her phone cover. Without it, she could not get back home via bus or MRT (Unless she has coins to spare from her wallet.). But I'm sure the phone is more of her concern, which is why there is a likelihood she'd return here.
Man... Whilst I was waiting at the lobby with my friend, I daydreamed of the possible scenes that may occur when I return the phone to her. I swear to you, they heavily relate to Shoujo Manga, because I'm obsessed with its romance. I'll give you one example, and this may get cheesy;
She came up the lobby, all teared up, indicating that she was desperately searching her phone all over the school. Just when she was about to lose all hope, she saw the back of a person (Which was me.), who was watching the sun set over the flats across the school. She felt the familiarity that she knew this person and the moment she saw him gripping onto her phone safely like he was protecting it, she quickly rushed towards him and hugged him from behind. He was caught off guard, but he knew it was the owner of the phone, and also as a bonus, it was the girl he was head over heels on.
"You found it..." Said the girl whose voice was trembling significantly.
"Of course I do. I'll never let anyone harm whatever belonged to you." Said the boy after he turned around to see her cute face, whilst giving out a gentle smile to assure her that everything is okay.
"Thank you..." Said the girl, as they hugged tightly. This day didn't turn out to be one ordinary day for him, but rather, to him, this day turned out to be the best he had in years, for he finally felt the warm comfort made from a girl.
Alright, back to reality now. Knowing that her phone is within my grasp, I also had the thought of possibly looking thoroughly through her phone to see any signs of me being someone significant to her life. I know... This is really shameful of me to just intrude her personal life in that sense. But don't worry, for I have not looked through the contents stored in her phone, since my friend is around. Better not let him get suspicious of my doings. Besides, its better to keep that possibility of me being significant to her a mystery, because in the end, I want to get surprised for real.
When the clock had reached 5:55pm, another guy friend of mine from another class walked out of the lift. As he was also friends with her, I immediately bombarded him with the question on her whereabouts. His response was surprising, as he revealed that she was talking to a teacher at the floor directly above us. Heh, it was really lucky of us for him to show up on this floor. But what actually surprised me the most was that while he was responding, he gave me 'The Eye', which basically means he knew that I... Li... *Blush again. Damnit, why is it hard to say those 3 words right now...?* Oh my God, don't tell me he knew this was within me since weeks ago.
After thanking him for that information, my friend and I took the staircase a floor up to enter the room facilities there. Upon entering, I saw her on the left busily talking and listening to a teacher alongside with 2 of our other girl classmates. When my head popped out within her sight, she had given me that gentle sweet smile that could melt my heart easily. I then raised my hand higher to reveal the phone she had left behind. Of course, she'd be shocked that it was not with her all along. Anyway, I entered the room she was in to return back her phone, with a follow-up reply of 'Thanks!' given. Looks like I had owed back for that chocolate bar she had given to me and my classmates several weeks ago.
Eventually, I waited until her discussions with her teacher ended, and we went down the elevator together with my guy friend and the other 2 girl classmates. We all then went our separate ways, but it really sucks when I had to wave, and say "Bye!" to her, because I won't get to see her until the next day. Turns out that the Shoujo Manga fantasy I daydreamed of didn't really mimic what had really happened minutes ago, but hey, at least her phone had finally been returned, and I'm already happy for that.
Whilst travelling back home via a double-decker bus after having dinner in school. I sent her a message to not leave her phone behind the next time. Of course I expected her to reply minutes later since she does not check her phone that often... But wow! It had been exceeded when she actually replied within less than a minute. I was really Oxytocin-high smiling on the inside that I feel like cuddling with her right now... I mean... Erm... *Extremely blushing. No no no, me and my lovey-dovey romantic thoughts again...!* Anyway, I would end this recount with her reply on my message;
"Haha:) yes sir!:) haha:) see you:)"
---
Yeah, I know she uses a lot of emoticons in her messages, but you'd see none of it if she were to post something serious though. She is indeed straight-forward. And the first time she initiated a talk with me the first time we met in this new class, I won't forget it. :)
Alright, I'm gonna go back to working on some school projects that need to be completed ASAP, as well as to ready up for the upcoming Semestral Exams this mid to late February. With that, I wish you all the best to making the Year 2014 a memorable one! Be outgoing, be positive, but most importantly, be safe. ^^ Since we have now entered into a new year, I'm gonna add a quote which relates to it. Till then, see you starside.

O Holy Night
After 2 long months, I have returned from climaxing... I mean schooling on my common tests. With that, I can enjoy this 3 week holiday (14 Dec - 5 Jan) with as much fun as I wanted, especially knowing the fact that Christmas is cumming... I mean arriving. Damn, I may have lost my self-control for innuendos. XD But no matter, for I have not blogged for some time. Anyway, I previously promised to write out one last Throwback Nostalgia the week after my last blog, but I was too busy with school work that I failed to do so. If you have been anticipating it, I apologize for putting your hopes down. I better not hesitate and write out my last Throwback Nostalgia right now, so I can put those smile on your faces again. :) It will be titled...
CHRISTMAS
I had always looked forward to Christmas, ever since I was a little toddler. And there were many reasons to loving it this much, like giving a tight hug to someone I love... *Blushies on* Okay, take it easy me. I love Christmas because of the Decorations it had portrayed. I mean, look at the glittering lights, shining stars, and colourful candies hanging on the big green pine tree. Such design makes it so appealing to many people as eye candy (No pun intended. Lol!).
But you know, Christmas is the best, because you get to play with your friends when they come over. Tis' a memorable time to just feel all the fun without the need to think of anything else. :D For instance, during my childhood days, I'd either visit my friends or them visit me to basically play with the toys we had. Just playing together with them... *Remembers the old days, and... Feels the feels (Again, no pun intended. XD)* Wow, so many great memories of the past still circulates around me. I'll never forget those days, nor forgetting them. :')
When it comes to Christmas, every year, there will always be indulging food layed out on the table, for all of us to crave, and devour greatly. In particular, you'd see Roasted Chicken, Honey Glazed Ham, Chocolate Log Cake, and many more. Did I make you extremely hungry now? Why not visit me during this time of the year. Then, you'd just sink yourself into it. Hehehe. ;)
Finally, what could never be more fitting for a theme than the great Christmas Songs. They really give an atmosphere where you could just smell the spirit of happiness. ^^ If you are curious, I have many favorite Christmas Songs. But, there is one song I had loved since youth, and that is called "O Holy Night", hence the title of this blog. This song alone gave me the chills, and goosebumps of how majestic, and powerful Christmas is. If you have yet to hear it, do it now. Whether it'd be the singing, or instrumental version. I promise you, you'll love it to the very end. <3
With all these, I hope you all notice how much I really love Christmas, because without it, the everlasting happiness will never be the same. For that, I now officially declare my series of Throwback Nostalgia a successful end. Perhaps this can inspire you to recall all those good ol' awesome days you had years ago, and maybe, just maybe, you could share your own Throwback Nostalgia to the others, and let them know your long-term memory was worth remembering. :)
Okay. I'm off to celebrate the Christmas Season with my family, and friends. Then, starting 6 Jan onwards, I shall get back to being consistent with school work, projects, and exams. Because, I have a Life Motto: "Work smart & play smart." From the bottom of my heart, I wish you all Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas! :3 Hmmm... I should be wishing her that too... Oh. Curious to know who am I talking about? Nah, not saying this time for now... Hahaha! Anyway, peace out, and I'll see you all soon. Till then, see you starside.
"All I ever want for Christmas is you, for I know you want me too. If we coincidentally stand under the Mistletoe, I'm sure a kiss will never be responded with a no. Knowing that fate brought us here, I realize our love will hold us dear."

Sightseeing The Wonders Of Nature
Halo to all.
I'd recently completed my Semestral Exams last month, and with that I'd like to bring a piece of good news to you all that its results mark my so-called epic comeback to my expectations. So much happiness filled within me that I've been playing my new PSP Games non-stop all day, and all night.during the holidays. If you wondered why I didn't mention playing my Xbox 360 instead, it's because its power supply unfortunately lost its energy to do it in a quickie (Innuendos are great to be inserted here lololol, if you know what I mean about power sockets and plugs. Hehehe! :P). Anyway, I'm gonna continue on my next Throwback Nostalgia. Its theme today will be called...
ENVIRONMENTS
I've been living in Singapore for the past 16 years (I first came to this country when I was 2 years old, coincidentally during National Day 1997). I'd seen so much physical changes with my own eyes as the years passed by. The old non-aircon SBS buses I rode on are replaced with the full-aircon types with digital markings to indicate the buses's directions. The plain areas and parks of Marina Bay are now heavily occupied by the Gardens By The Bay, Marina Barrage, and the iconic Marina Bay Sands. That is not all, I'd seen how much Sentosa had changed.
Before, Sentosa had the Boathouse that is located at the river bank opposite to what is now Vivocity mall. Moreover, I remembered riding on a monorail that travels around Sentosa. But most notably, I remembered the beautiful fountain park that stretches from the Boathouse to the ever-nostalgic Musical Fountains. But too bad they weren't shifted to another area of Sentosa when they were all demolished just to add in Universal Studios and Resorts World. Could have wished the new tourists can see them. But at least, I have such a powerful memory to remember the old times. Its good to treasure it anyway. :)
Even the many plain areas of Orchard; A place where families go and have an enjoyable picnic together, or maybe lovers trying to show a Pubic Display of Affection (Can I has this one day? :3)... Such places are now occupied by malls like Ion Orchard and Plaza Singapura. Moreover, I can still remember that there was an Arcade in Tampines Mall I played heavily at, known as Ezone. Now, it is replaced by the Cinema.
There was much change that I noticed, but its better not to spill it out all over the bed... Mmmm I mean floor. (If it is wet, then I recommend you lick or stimulate it. Just saying if you want to feel good. XD) As I can't just keep repeating the same process of going up and down. (Again with them innuendos, Paolo. XD)
Perhaps this came to my realization that memories do not just generate from our minds, but through our eyes as well. Because, whatever I saw and what changes it had gone through, I know it. This can also link to why I should take pictures, videos, or anything visual with what I see is significant (Simply put, my fated-one-to-be-with. Wish I'd find you soon. <3), because eventually as we all grow older, our memories will start to deteriorate. But, with the help of these, this downside will be no issue to me.
With that, I shall end my third installment to my Throwback Nostalgia. Just a thought, if any of you are curious to learn the Environments of Innuendoism, feel free to cum... I mean come to me. (This sounds so wrong. :P) I will teach you the many ways of being an innuendoist, from peeling a banana slowly and biting its top tip to creating your very own sweet, somewhat stuffy, and whitish milkshake. LOLOLOLOL! Just kidding, but seriously, if there is that one thing I'd want to passionately do with her out of romance, it'd be underwater kissing. There I said it. (*Overblushing like crazy*) Alright, I'm gonna continue enjoying the holidays (Including dreaming that underwater kissing moment with her. <3) and you all take good care as always. Till then, see you starside.

Friends, Family, Forever
Finally. The school projects I had been busy on for the whole of July had been recently completed (Frustratingly, 8 for your information... >_<). With that, I can now go on to talk about my next Throwback Nostalgia I would like to talk about. Though I better make this blog entry quick, because I still need to make time to prepare for the coming examinations this late August. After which, I can make love to... I mean make fun during the holidays (Yeah, I feel the passionate sensation running through my veins as I start caressing her in my dreams. Hmmm, too revealing eh? :3). Anyway, I will be talking about...
PEOPLE
2 months ago, I was bringing my relative to a building where she would go for a job interview (She's new to Singapore. That is why I had to bring her there.). After alighting at the bus interchange, I coincidentally met one of my secondary school classmates, who occasionally visits me to play my Xbox 360. It was several months since I had seen him. No wonder we talked so much whilst we were inside the MRT. I was really glad for that 30 minute conversation we shared on video games and life. :) This triggered me to remember those friends I had during my youthful days. Even though the friendship was short-lived, they were partly worth my memories. :)
I recall the times when I was in Kindergarten, which was 13 years ago (Wow... I possess long-term memories... :D), I had a classmate, who became someone whom I'd hang out to play with, as well as to stay with in his house when my parents were out for errands. His name is Alvin. Of course you all may have expected him to be a Filipino, but he is not. He is actually a Taiwanese. I spent so much time with him, including the mooncake festival, and the celebration of his as well as his little brother's birthday. Unfortunately, such childhood memories can't last forever. 2 years later, my family and I moved to a Condominium for the first time. Although the times I spent with him were severely reduced, he still visited me after I moved. However, the last time I saw of him was on the Year 2003. I wonder how is he doing right now. Hopefully, he is still doing fine. :)
Next, on the Year 2002 (I was 7 years old back then.), some of my father's colleagues visited our house for a party. There, I met 3 little girls who I shared a very super duper awesome friendship with for 5 years. Their names are Alexa (5 years old), Joelle (5 years old), and Jeanelle (3 years old). Of course, as the oldest and the only male in this group of friends, I was much like the leader and caretaker of them (To basically put, I follow, they follow. XD). We would often play at the swimming pool. To put extra emphasis, we would always do a slice-of-life family role play there. Moreover, we would also often go outdoors with their families. Yeah, I could remember that nostalgic day we had spent at the Playground in Marche, located at the HBO Building. We also spent Christmas Parties together, whereby we would just do nothing but play play play till the middle of the night. Finally, there were certain occasions when they would sleepover at my place. Oh the fun, golden moments we had (*Tears up*). The pictures that were taken... They deserve to remain in my heart forever. :') However, on the Year 2007, two of my friends (Joelle and Jeanelle) had to leave for the Philippines. Its kinda saddening if I were to think of this again, because this marked the end of our closeness of friendship. Do not worry though, for I still communicate with them via Facebook and Twitter (I even convinced them to return if possible, for I want them to see how much Singapore has changed ever since they left. :D). As for Alexa, she eventually went to a Secondary School. There, I know she is already treasuring new memories with her new friends there, and I'm glad to hear of that. I still communicate with her in Twitter though. I wish all you 3 the best and enjoy life to goodness. :D
Growing up, I start to mature, and thought of an important realization that I must uphold friendships for as long as possible, because I treat my friends as a family. They are after all, a part of my life. Alright, onto the first year of entering Secondary School during the Year 2008. There, I met guys who became, and had been my good friends ever since. Perhaps I should make an honorable mention of their names here eh? Oh what the heck, I'll list them out hehehehehe. They are Bang Hao, Parry, Ivan, Isaac, Gabriel, Vinh, and Kasper (Oh look, 7 listed. Halo reference maybe? XD). They are all whom I consider my good friends. There was much we had done when we hung out together. Be it whether in the school itself, or outdoors, or in their houses, or through chat applications like Whatsapp. If you guys are reading this: You have been an importance to my happiness and I am genuinely thankful that you have entered into my life. Once again, thanks guys! Looking forward to this September Holidays for that big reunion we had planned for! :D :D :D
With that, I shall end my talk on the people I had met during the past. You can see that I value friendships a damn lot, and you should do the same. ^_^ Alright, I'm off to rest and dream of caressing and cuddling with her. :3 Unless you want me to instead dream of frying sausages, with the bubbly oil continuously seeping in and squeezing out (Oh yeah! I deserve the "Eating It Out Innuendos" Award! LOLOLOL!). As always, I will continue on with another Throwback Nostalgia after my examinations are completed. Till then, see you starside.

There And Back Again
I miss nostalgia, and so do you all. It definitely brings a smile to your face regardless of whether you see, speak, hear, or think of it. :) Speaking of such unforgettable memories, I shall share with you my Throwback Nostalgia, whereby in each blog, I shall recall my past events in life under a theme that is in a form of a word. I will post such blogs until my next holiday (This September) begins. Alright... Here we go. Today, I will talk about...
CLUMSINESS
My parents know me well of such weakness I had since I was young. I was not referring to my carelessness in School Work as all of us students make mistakes in any way, but I was actually referring to my tendency to do tasks in a 'slippery' way or cause events in a 'sloppy' way.
For instance, when I was 7 years old, my mother and I went to Liberty Supermarket (Now replaced by Carefour, then Cold Storage) at Plaza Singapura to buy some groceries. Somewhere during the middle of our time spent there. I was playfully pushing and pulling the trolley (C'mon, I'm really young. I do random things you know? XD). Such recklessness led to a consequence: I accidentally bumped onto a shelf that was aligned with food sauces contained in glass jars. Upon bumping, one of the glass jars fell off the shelf and upon contact with the floor, it's cracking noise could have startled the entire Supermarket. Of course, I still was a kid back then, and I know nothing of embarrassment. However, my mother did, and oh my... She was really furious of what I had unintentionally done. Fortunately, she does not need to pay what was lost in that glass jar.
Next, I shall look into further detail on a particular day during the end of my lesson time at Saint Stephens School (My Primary School... Ah yes, computer labs everytime after examination week was over. Good stuff. :D), as my classmates and I were released after the class bell had rung, I excitedly rush 3 floors down to the foyer and ran like an immature boy towards my school bus in order to be the first student inside. But as I was running, I tripped and hit the ground... Face first! Do not worry, neither my face skin got scraped nor my mouth received a cleft gap. It was actually my front 2 buck tooth that cracked into half. Once again my mother was furious when she noticed my damaged teeth. At least they were fixed during dental therapy months later. I don't need to be seen by others as some typical low-class hillbilly farmer. XD
Another act of clumsiness I did was 4 years ago, when I was returning a glass for drinking to the kitchen. As I was pulling my right arm up to prepare placing the glass on the sink, I was too close to the kitchen door that when the glass hit it, it shattered to pieces. Dayumn! Obviously, my mother got furious again.
As you can see, I don't have a thing with glasses (I did not mean by 'In a relationship' with it, unless you are referring to a girl with glasses, then that would be an exception. ^^). That's why, I'd sometimes hold glasses close to me in a way I was reciting pledges. Yeah... I wish I was holding my fated-one-to-be-with close to me right now... Uhummm... Okay, enough with the lovesickness, Paolo. Lol! :3
Other than the 'Breaking Glasses' fetishism, I frequently slip on the floor after the rain had receded, and it was usually in front of the public. How humiliating. @_@ I also tend to trip along the staircase whether walking up or down or even backwards (Scrap the third assumption. That'd be too dangerous for me. *_*) .
I was even clumsy when it comes to talking with girls. Come on, you know I am really shy towards them, and that I don't want to give bad signals. You can refer to my blog titled "On The Brink Of Returning", which talks about how my nervousness caused me to speak clumsily to the girl I liked since last year. Of course it sparked an overload of embarrassness and blushiness within me.
With that, I shall end my shameful sharing of being clumsy. Hopefully, you aren't doing the same thing as I was, or you'd really be useful as a lubricant (In case you are not sure, a lubricant is the reason why your fingers can slide easily through something sticky. Hehehe.. If you know where this is leading, then you are worthy of receiving my 'Innuendoist' badge. :D). Alright, gonna continue working on school projects that need to be polished to goodness, as well as to dream of her in my sleep. I will share my next Throwback Nostalgia when I'm free to blog again. Till then, see you starside.

Chances Are We'll Be The Combination
Before I start bringing you to my thoughts of Second Chances in Romance as promised, this Blog Title shown is part of the lyrics of the song, "Chances" by Five For Fighting. After listening to this Happy-Ending-Romance-Based song a lot more than you imagined (Happiness is what we all value for the life we all wanted. :D), I kind of thought that the song was trying to show that no matter how much distance a couple had grown apart, they both would still end up together. You know why? It's because they believed in the chance that they would face better possibilities together. The chance that they deserve each other more than anyone else. The chance that they are still in love with each other. For if they have not, they would feel the endless regret, and all those memories would have scarred their hearts permanently. Henceforth, I believe in Second Chances in Romance, as no matter the issues and challenges me and my fated-one-to-be-with faced, I won't let go of her, because I see a future of us being a happy family. :) :D :3
I shall share a story (Written by me of course. Duh! I ain't plagiarizing. XD) emphasizing that Second Chances can happen. For your information, part of the story is inspired by real-life events I experienced, as well as those various popular television sitcoms I had watched. Oh, and pardon my lack of vocabulary and the ability to create a smooth story. My English Grades are not as surprising as you've thought. :P

There was this boy. Let's call him B. Unlike many boys, he ain't your typical 18 Year Old male. He is an introvert, quiet, but most prominently, a shy person, especially to girls, whom they thought this trait was a turn off for them. Kinda unlucky for him, as for the past 3 years, he felt he was rejected 3 times. On the 1st he liked, he took notice of her Facebook post, calling him something harsh. On the 2nd, he scrolled through her Tweets, clearly stating she does not like him back without adding him as a mention. He knew she was referring to him, as he made an indirect confession in Twitter, and you know how easily can this spread to other people. On the 3rd, she tried to trick him into thinking that she was taken, although no evidence proved her attached to someone already, after he stalked her Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. What's more is that she unfollowed him in Twitter, suspiciously thinking his Mentions to her are a sign of his interest towards her.
Poor B. Compared to the memorable beautiful past he experienced with his childhood friends, whom had returned back to their home country years ago, all he was facing right now was the feeling of being left out. No wonder he had been breaking down in his room sometimes, knowing he ain't happy at all. If only there was that one girl who likes him as much as he likes her.
Then, one day, while he was on his way to school to attend the 1st lesson of a new module, upon waiting at the classroom for it to start, came in a girl whom he immediately fixated his eyes upon. Let's call her G. His first impression of her: Any word which compliments her a lot. However, knowing that just liking girls before becoming a good friend to them could freak or creep them out, he thought on just being friends with her. Yet, he dosen't know he was about to venture into happiness, right from the moment she actually sat beside him. She smiled at him. He smiled back. B introduced himself nervously to G, afraid that he'd screw things up. Noticing his shy personality, G then mentioned that he was weird, yet she liked it. Of course, this gave a blush to B's cheeks, just like those Shoujo Manga moments.
After the lesson had ended, they both exchanged contacts, including those of social media material. And that was how their friendship started. During the weekends, G would call B out to hang out with her and her other friends. This gave an opportunity for B to be open. Eventually, the months had passed by, and B kept the movie tickets he bought to watch a movie with her and her friends, the gifts she bought for him, and the many pictures he took with her in a box, valuing it as how he got his way into true happiness.
Some time later, G invited B over to hang out with her at Vivo City, but this time, it was just the two of them only. B excitedly agreed, and continued to journey towards happiness with her. Moreover, he dosen't seem to be bothered by the many romantic couples at the Mall's Boardwalk, unlike before, as he was too focused enjoying his life with her. However, what he dosen't realise why she invited him was because she intended to confess something to him, but it's not the kind of confession you all thought. She confessed that she was thankful of B entering her life, feeling that he took a special place in her heart. Hence, she asked if he would be her Best Friend. This suddenly shocked B, as he thought she was about to confess her feelings towards him. But at the same time, he was happy that he felt needed. B tightly hugged G and agreed to her question.
The next day, B felt puzzled, as to why didn't G confess that she liked him instead, after she knew him for a long time. Somehow, B ignored the thought and continued to be Best Friends with G. But, this burdening thought continuously kept on hunting him, and this eventually led to a misunderstanding conflict between B and G, a week before her birthday on 20th December. This lengthened the distance between them.
During G's Birthday, B remained at home. Why? He didn't receive any invitation from her, due to what happened a week ago. Then, while the visitors are partying their hearts out, G made an announcement that the next week, she would head overseas with her family for a whole year. Knowing B wasn't around and the fact that he doesn't know what happened between him and G, one of G's friends sent a message to B about what G said just now. B replied "Okay. I see." to him, but what he didn't know that after replying, B was shocked and in sorrow, for he may soon lose someone very special in his life.
Knowing his shy nature and nervousness to confront people, B tried his very best to make a move to G's home, but avast, he was scared to do so, as negative thoughts continuously revolved around his mind. One such thoughts include the end to their friendship.
It was the evening before her flight in the late morning on 24th December. Desperately, B immediately wrapped up the box of true happiness with a note he slipped and buried into a while ago. He then placed another note at the top of the box. After which, he went over to G's house. Rather than directly entering since his relationship with her was still not fixed, he slipped the box though her bedroom window with grills upon secretly noticing her family was at the dining table. Then, he returned back home and laid back on his bed.
B felt very anxious whilst on his bed. He wondered what would happen if G didn't see the box. This triggered into what he saw as nightmares, like seeing her together with someone else, as well as spending the rest of her life with that person. This causes B to not fall asleep until the middle of the night. Because of this, he overslept, and the moment he woke up, he realized it was only an hour and 30 minutes left before G's Airplane takes off, which means 30 minutes before the time for checking had ended.
B rushed out of his house and called in for a taxi as fast as possible. Whilst on the way to the airport, he could feel his hands shaking anxiously. Immediately after reaching the airport and paying the taxi fare, B ran inside and kept his eyes peeled for G, still hoping she was still around.
Unfortunately, the worse had came. After desperately looking floor to floor, section to section, B was too late. G was no where to be found. He fell to his knees and tears trickled down from his watery eyes. Of all the times he had spent with her, they may well seem to inevitably be faded into memories.
As his family was preparing everything for Christmas Eve downstairs near at the Condominium's Clubhouse, B told them that he would remain upstairs at the house's balcony for a while. There he was sitting and staring blankly into the beautiful night sky. Feeling in sorrow, he wished to himself he shouldn't have talked to G about them being more than just Best Friends.
The clock had stroke 12 midnight and B could overhear people downstairs greeting Merry Christmas to each other. He started to weep with regret. He shouldn't had met G to face such immense suffering.
Suddenly, he heard a door opening. Assuming its one of his family members, he warned not to disturb him. Strangely, footsteps were heard approaching closer towards him. As the balcony slide doors open, there appeared G.
B immediately stood up and looked completely shocked. G held his cold hands tight to know that he was not dreaming as well as to calm him down. G explained that she saw whatever was inside his box he slid into her house, and realized how much B was a true keeper of romance. But most importantly, why her name was the only one written there. G confessed that she was afraid that B would end up rejecting her if she were to ask him to be her lover. That was why she asked him to be her best friend.
With a sign of relief, the two of them stared at each other, simultaneously blushing. Trying his best to break out of his shyness, B had his right hand touch G's smooth cheek. He then asked in a way a marriage proposal was supposed to be like: "Will you be my best friend, but also, will you be my lover...?"
In an instant, G launched at B and locked lips with him for the very first time. B had finally caught the girl of his dreams. After which, that was when they exchange their feelings for each other with 3 simple words: "I love you."
With that, hours later, when B's family returned home, they saw B and G, happily cuddling in their arms. Their love journey has finally started.

I know such story is sloppy and somewhat cliche. But what I was really trying to convey is that second chances can happen. Believe in that, because this is where keepers of romance emerge.
Anyway, as my Thoughts on Second Chances in Romance had been poured out like cum (Innuendos. I love this side of me. :P), it's on to recount about my past in future blogs. Alright, off to mindmapping my school revisions. Till then, see you starside.
"If she is stupid enough to still love you even after you have hurt her, she definitely is 'The One' you have been looking for."
