WHEN BOREDOM STRIKES


I’m sitting on this bench- an old bench actually that is living maybe more than a decade now but is standing steadfast still and so I am all alone here reminiscing the things or maybe even the people I “used” to have long, long ago- the people I loved . . . . and cared for . . . . . .and danced with . . .and laughed with . . . and cried with . . .and the rest? They are ALL history.


I was oh so new to this atmosphere. I turned out to be a silent-type-nerdy-like girl who wears thick eyeglasses, a white shirt inside an aged jacket, a pair of half pants and old-fashioned shoes. People around me then never dared to make friend with me or even had the nerve to talk to me. It turned out like I was a hermit. No. No. No. I never liked myself to be one or called even. I wanted to mingle with those jetsetters walking in the streets but I knew from the very beginning that I will never be like them- a sad fact but never will I be a socialite. I was then a mere student with a big dream- an unreachable dream and a total loner.


I lived waking up at six in the morning, going to school after, taking a little snack, going to the library, do some eating at lunch and runs home after. I never found a friend until a new girl student came to our campus. I was cloned,I guessed. She was really like me- an unfashionable teenager who enters bravely a world for hot trends. Days have gone and as how every story goes, we ate,reviewed, walked and shared stories together. We remained that way for straight two years.


One time, when the school had a program, these so called trendsetters talked to my friend. They asked her if she could join them in their group or something. I did not spill any word. My friend looked at me with a facial expression of“assurance”. A facial expression that told me, “I’ll just join them for a while
and I’ll be back here, hunn (that’s how we called each other).” I, then, smiled to her- a sign of trust then and there off they went. After a time of two hours, I made my way to the shed- where we usually waited for each other before we could go home. And there I waited for almost another two hours and I was half starving then, but never did a shadow of her appeared in front of me. I laid my back on one of the four posts, brought out my music player before my tummy could burst it all out and waited some more. The light turned dim orange already and yet I did not even have a glimpse of her. I decided to go home that
time that I thought maybe she had forgotten to come over.



Thefollowing day turned out to be a little worse than the day before. I could notfind her anywhere and so I thought again that maybe she was busy sinceprofessors handed us lots of projects during that season. The day ended sounwell because I had the feeling of how-does-it-feel-to-be-alone “feeling”similar to what I felt the first time I entered the school.


The next day, I viewed it to be like the days with my best friend during the last few days but still, I did not see her. Everything was not under control already and so I searched for her anywhere she could be until I came to past by the jetsetters’ place. I did not take a glance on their group but a giggling made me stop and look at them. I was totally much of a dumbfounded one when I saw her having much fun with her “friends” that she did not even notice me. Her new friends saw me and stared at me with an annoying look. One of them asked her,“It looks like you’ve got a dear friend in the house?” She started laughing that made me horrified and she said to him, “What’s up with you? A dear friend?You are nuts!” And then they killed their selves laughing and laughing and laughing. I could not bear another laugh anymore so I got myself out of the place and ran as fast as I could and went as far as I can reach. Home is way too far that I maybe spill those teas before I could reach there and so I stayed in an ignored park with few dating couples and jumping monkeys on their cages. People were not aware of my presence there specially that I am alone.


I cried in too much pain- my head on my arms crossed on top of my folded legs.The two years we shared to one another was then washed out all at once and not a small piece of happiness stayed for me. Those times when she shared to me something that goes between her and her crush, those seats with her at the park eating and laughing out loud and those endless walks in the highways singing songs were then ALL gone. They were all completely gone.


Hatred that time filled my heart. I cursed her and those people who mingled with her.I made a decision that sometime after years, I’ll face them. I will be a professional whom they will surely bow their heads down. A wise woman who does not turn to people like them- mean people, a woman who is rich, famous and everything and a woman whom everybody will surely envy.



That decision was made years ago. Those times have already ended and a new me is created. I am now a matured one facing much bigger problems. I now understand why I needed to face such things. Now I know that life does not always bet to you. Now I know that she’s not the one I need that I will meet much true friends. My eyes are now opened to things that are unseen before. Everything has been cleared for me- everything that has something to do with a man’s life.


I’m back here at this same bench- an old bench actually that is living maybe more than a decade now but is standing steadfast still and so I just ended myself from reminiscing past experiences. The day is almost done and I have lots of work more to do. Time really heals.
