You, as my tumblr follower, if you really care about what I blog these past few months or if you really know me, you might have the slightest idea who is the boy that I LIKEY. Well, without much further ado, his name is MELVIN MINA. (Just add “JOHN” before the MELVIN, because he likes it.)
He is 20 years of age and lives in a nearby province somewhere in the North. He is 5’3” in height and just like me, a graduate of Bachelor of Arts, Major in English Language, of course, from the same university, Polytechnic University of the Philippines. Born under the sign of Aquarius and of course, the only G. The only gentleman that I know.
A lot of people, even his classmates says that, he is too odd, too different, not your ordinary or typical boy to know. He’s not that athletic and does not know how to play any musical instrument. Well, I say, that’s it. The reason why I like him is that, he is different. From his points of view to the way he speaks his mind. That’s true, he is not-your-typical-boy-friend-to-talk-about-girls-and-stuff.
Oh c’mon, who does not want to be liked by or to like an odd boy anyway? They are people who are hard to please, but then, they have the small percentage to like you and befriends with you.
”..I hate it when you’re not around and the fact that you didn’t call. But most of all, I hate the way I don’t hate you. Not even little, not even close, not even at all.”
For you to end those freakish questions in mind, I would let you know what keeps me liking this boy until now from the very moment we had our first eye-to-eye.

Well folks, this, I present to you…
TOP 15 REASONS ON WHY I LIKE THE ODD BOY FROM SOMEWHERE IN THE NORTH.
** insert a Taylor Swift song here. Oh hmm, try the song, “Superman”, aside from the lines, “… Tall, dark and superman…” **
Leggo first to the physique.
1. The ABS and BICEPS. @_@ Imma good girl but when I see him topless or no shirt, I can’t help but to stare longer, then comes back to reality when a friend taps me at the back. Yeah, he is really into something like, body-building. But I don’t want him to be the big guys on TV who lift tons of metals. I just like the way he is NOW.
2. The HEIGHT. When I like a boy, I am not really into the height. Or how high am I gonna put my head up just to stare at him. He is 5’3” and I’m 5’2”. Close enough. I can still reach his forehead when I wipe his sweat.
3. HUMAN WATERFALLS. Yeah, he sweat a lot. I dunno if there is a problem with his skin or what. But one thing I like when he sweats a lot, is that fact that he maintains his good personal hygiene. He does not let sweat interfere with his looks.
4. THE SMELL. Every girl tends to fall in love or to like a guy who smells so good. He does not smell like food or grilled liempo, he smells like a boy-next-door type of man whose sweat contains chemicals that maintains his good smell. :3
5. The PORMA. He wears comfy shirts and
But he looks hotter when he wears just plain white sando. (Go and read no. 1 again)

Nuff of the physical aspect. Let’s now go to the real thaaaang. (Wait, whut?!)
6. The acting skills. Yes, he knows how to act. He played several characters in different stage and class room presentations. My favorite is when he played Oberon’s assistant, Puck in a Shakespearean comedy. He did that for 2 times and I can’t help but to stare at him as he amazes the audience with his talent.
7. He knows the right words to say. Whether he is pissed or happy. He knows how to say these, of course, at the right time as well. He knew the right and the bad words.
8. He is too shy. He is and I think, he will always be. I never knew that he can’t make an order on a famous fast food chain. When we had our first date, I told him to order anything that he wants, but I ended up buying the food for the both of us and the cashier’s was like LOL-ing because we are arguing on what to eat.
9. He knows how to SAY SORRY. I mean, SORRY with much sincerity. You can feel it and he will make it up to you as promised. That will be time that you’ll say, “Ahwwwww! Bati na nga tayo G. <3”
10. He is really sweet. Yes, he is. He can do it in ways that you don’t really expect. Like, making you feel blessed and happy with just a thought or two. One thing I like about him is that, he knows the right time to be sweet. Siya ang aking tagapaypay sa lahat ng oras pag mainit lalo na nung ayusan ng graduation papers :)
11. He is into surprises. When I saw my letter for him placed in his Ati-Atihan headdress while doing the show, I was like, super happy! With that, he showed me that he really wants to keep the letter though it is just a short note, and of course, me :)
12. Matured way of thinking. Well, he also acts in a matured way. I know some will say, it is just “PAKITANG TAO.” This, I tell you, it is not. He is the kind of person who uses his mind and heart when making decisions. He is really a grown up man who stands by his beliefs and initial decisions on things.
13. We have the same likes, dislikes, interests and habits. We like slow rock, horror type of movies, American TV shows, food to eat, things to say, favorite subject, same dream course, same missions and same dream job. We want to be published writers, but sad to say, our university, ran out of slots, so we opted a much better course, and that is our degree. AB English.
14. Kinda weird and different view on LOVE and DATING. It is rare for me to hear a guy to say something like, “I want a relationship that will last for a lifetime.”, “Gusto ko yung first girlfriend ko, siya na yung last”, “Ayoko mag-teacher kasi baka di ako mag-asawa sa oras.”. Things like that. Well, he did. He told me those things. He even tried his best to convince me not to apply for a teaching job in a classroom set-up, I may end up an old maid daw. Hahaha! Well, I listened to him and had my job now, an ONLINE ENGLISH TEACHER. And according to him, this is acceptable. :)
15. He is really a gentleman. Before I knew this aforementioned reasons on why I like him, this is the only thing I knew about him. He is really good man and I think in the near future, he will be a good family provider for he is very responsible and does his tasks and responsibilities.

These are the reasons on why I like Mr. Melvin Mina and why he is my only G. :)
He is such an angel — sometimes.
