Me and my bestfriend is going to the city now to study for college since our desired course isn't available at our province. Well, even if it is available, I would still choose to be far from my parents, new people, new environment, and a fresh start towards growing up mentally.   Sumakay na kami sa van, we own three van in total. Yun ang pinahkikitaan ni papa kasi si mama hindi pwedeng magtrabaho kasi may sakit siya sa puso, kaya kung ano ano nalang ang sinasabi ng kaibigan ko dito sa loob para lang mapatahan si mama.   Me and my best friend, we started off as enemies, but not the physical type. We hated each other silently and look at us now, we're like magnets. She's someone I'd risk myself for, for 7 years, I've always rely on her and she does the same to me. My heart belongs to Cereese, my soul sister.   "Mama nandito na po tayo" rinig kong sabi ni Cereese sa likod, nandito kasi ako nakaupo sa may passenger seat para naman may kausap din si papa. Bumaba at kinuha na namin ang mga gamit namin at pinasok iyon sa bahay. May bahay kasi dito ang isa sa kamag-anak ni mama na hindi na ginagamit ang bahay na ito. Sayang naman daw kong walang titira at mag aalaga kaya dito nalang kami.   Hindi kalakihan ang bahay na iyon pero sakto lang yon sa aming dalawa ni Eesi, nickname yun ni Cereese. Kampante din sila mama dito sa bahay dahil maraming tao, hindi masayadong delikado lalo na't babae pa naman kami pereho ni Eesi. Nag umpisa na kaming maglinis, maalikabok talaga ang bahay, may tatlong kwarto, dalawang banyo at makarugtong lang ang living room tsaka kusina which is okay, lol di naman din kami marunong magluto.   "Wag kayong masyadong gagala sa gabi ha? tawagan niyo ko palagi at huwag masayadong maingay baka pagalitan kayo ng mga kapitbahay" tumawa kng kami ni Eesi, maingay pa naman kami pag magkasama. By the way, I'm Justine, 18 years of age.   "Justine?!" Tawag ni Eesi sa akin, di pa kami tapos mag ayos ng gamit, pano ba naman kasi tung babaeng to, dinala na siguro lahat ng gamit sa bahay nila. "Ano?!" sagot ko sa kanya.   "Saang kwarto ka?" tanong niya sa akin, lahat ng kwarto ay nasa sa second floor ng bahay, may malapit sa hagdanan, sa may cr at sa may balcony. " ako na ditong malapit sa cr ha? alam mo naman tung pantog ko, di makapagpreno gosh"   "O sige na, dito nlng ako sa gitna" nasa dulo pa kasi yung malapit sa balcony eh, okay narin tung sa tapat ko lang ang hagdan.   "Ano palang gagawin natin diyan sa isang kwarto? sayang naman pag hahayaan lng natin" sayang nga naman ang isang kwarto kung di gagamitin kaso wala naman talaga kaming pag gagamitan.   "Wala naman tayong malalagay jan Eesi, hayaan nalang natin muna yan, baka sa susunod magagamit natin"   Wala kaming ibang ginawa kundi maglinis at mag arrange ng gamit, si Eesi panay reklamo dahil mas malaki daw yung nasa dulo na kwarto kaso ang layo daw sa cr, nag reklamo din siya kung bakit di nalang nilagyan ng banyo sa loob ng kwarto para di daw hassle. Itong babae tung talaga, may masasabi kahit kanino at kahit ano.   Pagkatapos namin ay kumain kami sa isang karenderya na nasa tapat lang din ng bahay, wala kaming palano mag luto ng corned beef ngayon.   "Eesi? eesi! baka malate tayo sa first day natin ano bayan!" padabog akong pumasok sa kwarto ni Eesi at nakita ko siyang dali daling kinuha ang tuwalya niya. Mas matanda sa kin si Eesi ng mga 5 months kaso ako palagi ang nag babantay at nag aabang sa mga kilos niya.   Eesi and I always take bread and coffee as our breakfast, we always keep our slim figure since we do have offers about photoshoots even before coming here. And now, marami ding nag oofer kaso kailangan din pasok yun sa schedule namin.    We took the morning session for the reason that most of the photographers we've worked with prefer the afternoon time, in that way, our class and photoshoot gigs will not overlap or meet.   "Omg ang daming gwapo" sabi ko sa kanya, I won't deny the fact that this is actually one of the many reasons why we want to move in the city. I'm not saying na sa city lang may mga gwapo, sa province namin medyo marami rami naman kaso nakakaumay na rin haha.   "Justine ahhh, look oh" may tinurong group of boys si Eesi sa tapat ng puno kung saan may mga bench din don. "I think they're seniors Tin". Looking at them, mukha ngang mga seniors sila, I am more excited because of them. I think college won't be that hard, ka blockmate ko si Eesi and I'm sure I can handle this.   "Good morning everyone, I'm Cereese Malton , 19 years of age and umm, I hope we can get along anytime soon" may mga nag hi sa kanya at may mga pumalakpak pa. Eesi is beautiful, she's a morena girl, brownish long wavy hair and a slender form body. She likes wearing something that emphasizes her shape, and since first day nga naman, she's wearing a white bodycon longsleeve dress.   "Hi, pleasant morning to everyone, I'm Justine Jam Gartes but you can call me Justine, I'm 18 years old, Hope to learn and grow with all of you." May naghiyawan sa bandang likuran, tinatanong kung may jowa na ba ako or what. Unlike Eesi, I would describe my skin tone more lighter and white than hers, we almost have the same height, mas matangkad siya ng konti but hindi namn masyadong halata.     Nothing much happened on our first day except for the shocking long quiz one of our profs task us to do. I can immediately tell that she's a terror one but manageable, I hope.
