Dear Crush... I Still Like You
Orland Batongbakal

Dear Crush,

Yes, I'm talking to you, girl!

I know we haven't met face-to-face yet, but that is fine for now.

You probably didn't know I even exist.

We live hundreds of miles apart from each other but that doesn't stop me from admiring you.

I know that you are with someone at this time and that might be a discouraging fact for me, but my admiration for you doesn't change.


I admire you so much because...

… you're beautiful. You really are beauty queen material.

… I deeply believe that along with your outer beauty comes your inner beauty and kind heart.

… I believe you love your family very much. I know you are a good sister to your siblings. I also know you are a good aunt to your nieces. I can see how you deeply love them as if they are your own.

… I believe you're also smart and hardworking. And I need that kind of influence to rub off on me.

… I believe you have a good, strong and healthy relationship with your friends. I need that kind of friendship myself.

… you seem to be a physically fit person. Well, look at me, I greatly need that kind of person like you to be my friend.


I just want to let you know that...

… I exist.

… I care deeply about your likes and dislikes, what you do for fun, what kind of beliefs in life you have even though we haven't met yet in person and you are already have someone.

… I always want to compliment you about your looks and achievements. I want to sympathize with all your struggles that you face everyday.

… you can count on me for everything that you might need. I can be a shoulder to cry on, be someone to laugh and cry with, be a good friend when you get to know me.

... I really like you so much!


Don't worry about me pursuing you closely, I respect your relationship with your man.

If I had learned something from my heartbreaks, it is that I shouldn't expect something highly from someone I admire. Expecting too much just leads to a broken heart, an abused spirit, and a troubled mind.

All I can do is admire you from afar, pray you know I exist, and hope that one day we could at least be close friends! All I can do is to follow your life through the social media and be satisfied that we are acquainted this time.

I hope you find what you wanted and needed in your life. You will be in my thoughts and my prayers, you and your entire family in this your great time of need.

I hope you would find this letter in good condition and not be upset on what I had said here.


That would be all. I really hope we can cross paths, speak with each other soon, get to know each other, connect on many aspects, and have a lasting friendship wherever we end up. Remember, you are beautiful inside and out.


Sincerely,

Your not-so-secret admirer.

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
