head over heels
i thought at that time that i should issue a health warning that its not advisable to cram for a long quiz the night before--or else youll trip over a slab of concrete,fall flat on your face--right in the college hallway,infront of fifty or so people...
it was just like any other day.a day which i though would pass as quickly as any in my years had been.i allowed myself to get lost among the students that walk to and from their classes while wondering whether or not i got all political systems right.i dont worry about quizzes that much really,a passing mark and il go tumbling happy..but then,i had this secret crush on my PolSci professor,i thought it might not hurt making a good impression..
so it was people,my PolSci exam,and the trees..until i noticed a guy walking towards me,and i thought he looked good as sunlight struck him..he looked almost ethereal,and thought for just a second if i knew him from somewhere.yards away,i couldnt make it out..but then with the Dawson's creek infront of me--i thought nah,i must be dizzy from cramming...
so a few more steps and hes going to be close..i waited patiently,caring to look at his face once hes closer (i wished i had glasses)..but then to my surprise,he smiled..took my hand and said hello...oh stupid, i was thinking ethereal when i knew him all along..it was Eric..
i could kick myself,yeah really kick myself.kick myself for being silly.who was i expecting? Won Bin? and the thought that i saw him in that light was more than enough to make my head spin...literally..and i didnt notice the slab of concrete in front of me--i was busy cursing at myself maybe...
a slab of concrete,a clumsy fall on my part,my bleeding palms and elbow--infront of my harshest critic and the one third of the university population..perfect for the slumbook Most Embarassing Moment...
and yeah Ethereal came walking towards me--checking if im still alive..well,i was...all in one piece that i could still run away home,run so fast.not away from people.away from him..away from the truth that was slowly sinking in,and hoped truth couldnt keep up with me--coz i dont want it..
i never thought--2 years later--a fall had changed everything.i think it was pathetic.i wished i hadnt crammed the night before..i wish now it was just a simple a reason as that.
