The Cornchild Diaries
The Cornchild Diaries

I am Olan, an 18 year old boy from the Philippines. I also call myself Nalo or Cheezy. I am currently pursuing my undergraduate studies in Singapore. People close to me say that I'm crazy and corny. But people who don't know me well may see me as someone silent and mysterious. That's because I only talk and share to people who reach a certain level of closeness to me. I like singing, listening to music, dancing crazily, eating Skittles and M&Ms, drinking Dutch Lady Chocolate Flavoured Milk and having chicken teriyaki for lunch and/or dinner. Basically, that's all I could say about me, cornchild.

The Love Entry 1

Love is in the air...

And I'm having an asthma attack...

(Are they related??)

Yuh-huh!!

But enough of this nonsense. This is the entry I've promised to write months earlier. The one you've been waiting for..

The first part of the series of entries about..

L-O-V-E

You might be asking this: Is Cornchild in love? Well, NO! But why love? Because love is everywhere nowadays. And I know a lot of people (and I really know them!!) who are trapped in this thing.

So I'll start with one person. Let's call him Hoyy. Let me describe him first. He has hair, a complete face, a body, two arms, two legs, a butt, and a... you know. So that's it. Now who is this girl this guy is eyeing? I also know her. She happens to be one of the people who loves trees. Just kidding..

Then what?

Let's leave the guy and the girl first. Let's talk about me. Have you ever felt like you're a very big heart in between two people? I always feel that. It's like my purpose in life. I was born to be it. How wonderful life can be..

But being a big heart also made me feel like the Berlin Wall or the Wall-between-North-and-South-Korea (to the government officials, please don't kill me). I feel like I'm a barrier between two peoples struggling to be together.

(Actually, in my case now, only one is struggling to be with the other).

Oh.. so there's a case NOW?

Yuh-huh (again). Remember Hoyy and the girl? Well you're right. They're the case.

So what's next?

Well.. it's next! I mean next time... when nobody is breathing down my neck ;) Adios!
