CRUSH… INFATUATION… LOVE…

When I was in my second year college, I liked someone who was a real friend to me.  We were very close that we were always mistaken as ‘more than friends’.  We studied together, and we helped each other with assignments, projects, and other school requirements.  Most of the time, he was the one spending since he has more money than me.  
Nonetheless, we were classmates in every subject for two (2) years until I decided to change my course from Electrical Engineering to Industrial Engineering.  He was actually the main reason why I changed course because I don’t want any distractions from my studies.  We were both falling… and I don’t want to catch him!
During my infatuation days, I dreamt of writing a poem dedicated to him.  I wanted to immortalize my feelings to him through poetry.  Apart from just writing a poem, I also planned to read it aloud in front of the class just to show my feelings for him.  It was that feeling that you wanted to go to "top of the world" and shout vigorously "i looooovvvvveeeee you, #$*&^ (name withheld to protect his identity and my saneness)!
I knew also that he felt the same with me.  And I had the feeling that he would be very proud and elated if I do that.  Remember, I am enrolled in Electrical Engineering course wherein majority of students are males.  At that time, I was the only female in our batch so I was always the center of attraction.  Now, imagine or picture me in front of the class reading the love poem dedicated to my SPECIAL ONE.
Anyway, I did manage to write a poem for him (copy of the poem will be published in one of my blogs).  But, I didn’t have the guts or enough courage to read it aloud in front of the class.  If I did it, i would have won the ‘most foolish’ award!  And I could not have forgiven myself for doing that.  What a shame, you foolish girl… crazy meeeh! 
Sometimes when I think about it, I just smile and sigh! Lo and behold, am I really crazy to even think of such things because of love?  Best watch out when you see me smiling… I might be thinking some of the crazy things I would love to do!
To have a glimpse of the craziness of the guessers, please refer to the list at https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=2812556988941.

***Elsa Tan, I believe you are more crazier than me... since, you are going to recite the poem not only in front of the class but, in a crowd...***
