Part I

"Let's Start Off With Michelle."

It was the year 2000, I had just gotten into this new school, O.B. Montessori Center Inc. in Greenhills, it was a private school for children who's parents had pockets. I was a new student from a public preschool who had enrolled late. I was actually gonna enroll for Prep. But then they told me since I was the first honor at my old school, they would put me immediately at the First Grade. I had this classmate named Michelle. (In due respect of the people here, I changed their names.) (And it's fun to give them fake names.) She was cute and pretty, I don't know what made me like her but I liked her for a pretty long time. A few years passed and I got switched to a different class. By this time, I liked her enough to tell others that I had a crush on her and I even tried to exchange messages with her on Friendster (A popular SNS back in 2004). I was in Elementary by then. I was fat, I was corny, I sounded like a nerd  and I was definitely heading no where with Michelle. Sometimes, I would talk to her friends a lot but when she would join in, I would stand up, leave and run looking like a total goofball. It was freaking stupid. I had plenty of other crushes but Michelle was kinda like my "primary crush".

It reached up until High School, I had been in O.B. for 7 years, living as a freshman. By then I knew almost everyone from my batch so I hung out a lot with the 4th Years. That was the time when Albie, an important person in this series, moved to O.B. He was the cousin of my classmate, Annie. He was tall, handsome and buff, basically my opposite. He was in Michelle's class. But enough of him for a while.

Question : Trying to look shy and show her that you really like her, is that cute or is that just annoying?
Question : Are conversations on Social Networking Sites a good way to know someone?
