What is Love? Strong feeling of deep attraction for somebody or something; Strong feeling of affection and sexual attraction for somebody (Oxford Learner’s Pocket Dictionary).  So, everyone has different love stories and this story is one of it...

Chapter 1

The Intro of My Love Story

Described my love story...hmmm complicated.      But you’ll get a glimpse of it when listening to this song. Well, This song was introduced by my friend..she said that she and her friend used to listen to this too..kept me wondering why..she said that this song was suitable for us both..

Actually this song was sung by a man and a woman...but im just gonna show you the woman’s part..so here it is:

Artist: Justin and Natalie  Title: Where Are You

........

How does he laugh? How does he cry? What is the color of his eyes?
Does he even realize I'm here?
........

Where is he? Where is he? Where is he? Where is this beautiful guy?
Who is he? Who is he? Who's gonna take me so high?

........

Where are you?? I'ma to look all over the world baby
'cause I know you are out there
I know I might sound crazy, but I think I love you

.........

First i listened to this,,my mouth hung open (seriously, it’s true). It’s perfectly pictured me..kept wondering and waiting for the right man for me.

Chapter 2

My Perfect Love Story

A girl can dream, right?..i’ve never experienced a romance life before ,,but if I could decided how my love story gonna be,,I would wanted my love story to be like this...

How would i met my boy? Start to think what i like..I like book,movie,,hmm music? (a musician is kinda cool too)..hahaha. By the way i’ve never imagined this before (about how i would met my boy) until i found this song in magazine..

Artist: Hellogoodbyes  Title: Bonnie Taylor Shakedown

Visit you at Baskin Robins all the time
To let you know that I am yours and you are mine
So we can take long walks through central park
And hold each others hands to fight the dark

..........

Why i like this? It’s because “Baskin Robins”..I love ice cream very much and wouldn’t it be cool if i met my boy in this ice cream gallery?..

***

How would i spend my time with my boy? Well, I can’t dance but i want to be able to dance like in one in Enchanted movie (Patrick Dempsey and Amy Adams). So, i would like to spend my time by just being closer with him then having a slow dance....

Artist: Jon McLaughlin (OST Enchanted)  Title:  So Close

You’re in my arms
And all the world is calm
The music playing on for only two
So close together
And when I’m with you
So close to feeling alive

A life goes by
Romantic dreams will stop
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting here with you
And now forever I know
All that I wanted to hold you
So close

......

Or maybe that one is to much,,this way would be ok: I would go to dance party or a pub then the boy who liked me would ask me to dance...

Artist: Kings Of Convenience  Title: I’d Rather Dance With You

I'd rather dance with you
than talk with you,
so why don't we just move into the other room.
There's space for us to shake,
and 'hey, I like this tune'.

Even if I could hear what you said,
I doubt my reply would be interesting
for you to hear.
Because I haven't read a single book all year,
and the only film I saw,
I didn't like it at all.

I'd rather dance than talk with you.
I'd rather dance than talk with you.
I'd rather dance than talk with you.

The music's too loud
and the noise from the crowd
increases the chance of misinterpretation.
So let your hips do the talking.
I'll make you laugh by acting like the guy who sings,
and you'll make me smile by really Getting into the swing.

Well, isn’t it fun to have dance with a boy we like and then get laugh all the night with him?

***

How would i like my boy? I don’t need a perfect guy to be my boyfriend but a charismatic and smart person is my interest one..but the most important thing is that  i’d like to be myself when i’m with him,,just like in this song...

Artist: Taylor Swift  Title: I’m Only Me When I’m With You

I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me when I'm with you.

........

Just a small town boy and girl
livin' in a crazy world.
Tryin' to figure out what is and isn't true.
And I don't try to hide my tears.
The secrets or my deepest fears.
Through it all nobody gets me like you do.
And you know everything about me.
You say that you can't live without me.

When I'm with anybody else it's so hard to be myself.
Only you can tell.

..........

How would my boy ask me to be her girlfriend? Hmm..he would make a song to me then one day when he’s ready he would come to me by bringing his guitar then sing it to me.

This song is perfectly pictured that. Same with ‘Where Are You’ song, this song was also intoduced by my friend. My friend just sang the sweet part of it: There’s only one thing. To Do. Three words. For you. (I love you). I just loved it the first time i heard this. See it the full version....

Artist: Plain White T’s  Title: 1234

1-2-1-2-3-4
Give me more loving than I’ve ever had
Make me feel better when I’m feeling sad
Tell me I’m special even though I know I’m not
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad

Barely getting mad
I’m so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
Its as easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4

There’s only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you

There’s only one way to say
Those three words
That’s what I’ll do
(I love you) I love you

Give me more loving from the very start
Piece me back together when I fall apart
Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad

You’re the best that I’ve had
And I’m so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
It’s easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4

........

How would i spend my first date with my boy?hmm..really have no idea,,but i found this song was just too sweet to picture it although the lyric is just a little too cheesy..

Artist: Taylor Swift  Title: Today Was A Fairytale

Today was a fairytale
You we're the prince
I used to be a damsel in distress
You took me by the hand and you picked me up at six
Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale
I wore a dress
You wore a dark grey t-shirt
You told me I was pretty when I looked like a mess
Today was a fairytale

Time slows down when ever you're around

But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale
You've got a smile that takes me to another planet
Every move you make everything you say is right
Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale
All that I can say is now it's getting so much clearer
Nothing made sense until the time I saw your face
Today was a fairytale

......

Chapter 3

Reality of Love Story

Don’t expect real life will be as beautiful as in the movies or maybe princess-y movies. Falling in love can be both exciting and hurting..really i don’t lie.

Well, I started to fall in love with this boy around 3 years ago. I was too shy, I had never told my feeling to him. But i had told my friends and because of that my secret then became a not secret anymore. I did know too that this boy I liked had had a feeling to another girl for long time. I barely talked to him,,for me it’s just like loving a stranger. My friends had helped me to get close to him,,but I couldn’t because it’s just so hard for me. “What if he didn’t like me?, What if he rejected me?”..my friends kept telling me that he didn’t have to like me first..First of all I had to get close with him, let him know about me. Logic? Of course..but still i didn’t have any nerve for doing that.

Then one of my friends told me about this song. She said that this song was very pictured me. I’ve got to listened to it twice before i got the meaning and hell yeah..she’s perfectly right.

Artist: Michael Buble  Title: You Don’t Know Me

You give your hand to me
Then you say hello
I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me

No, you don't know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight
Oh I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
'Cause you don't know me

I never knew
The art of making love
Though my heart aches
With love for you
Afraid and shy
I've let my chance to go by
The chance that you might
Love me, too

You give your hand to me
And then you say good-bye
I watch you walk away
Beside the lucky guy
You'll never never know
The one who loves you so
Well, you don't know me

You give your hand to me, baby
Then you say good-bye
I watch you walk away
Beside the lucky guy
No, no, you'll never ever know
The one who loves you so
Well, you don't know me

My friends kept fun of me with this song. I was okay with that because.. well,,that was so me: shy, didn’t have any nerve to do anything to get him. Wanna know what part of lyric they like to tease me? à “I watch you walk away. Beside the lucky guy”.

***

So then that day happened. The day when i heard the news that he’s finally  with the girl he liked. Truthfully,,i’ve never felt a broken hearted before. That was the first time and it’s really hurt. And you know what more hurt was? My friends had knew it already but they seemed oblivious to it. Seemed like they didn’t care enough about my feeling. I was so angry to them but I never showed it. I spent my day just like any ordinary days like nothing ever happened. After a week I acted like that, I just couldn’t hold it anymore. So,I went to my room ,,then i cried..cried as much as I wanted till i got sleepy then thankfully the next morning i felt so relieved. I tried to forget it, I tried to forgive my friends and promise to myself that i wouldn’t blame any of my friends for my own problem. I just thought positive that maybe they seemed oblivious to it because I’ve never told about it to them and because they didn’t want to upset me about it.

About that, i have my own song to picture it..and everytime i listen to it reminding me about how hurt broken-hearted is..

Artist: Taylor Swift  Title: Teardrops On My Guitar

Drew looks at me
I fake a smile so he won't see
What I want and I need
And everything that we should be

I'll bet she's beautiful
That girl he talks about
And she's got everything
That I have to live without

Drew talks to me
I laugh 'cause it's just so funny
I can't even see
Anyone when he's with me

He says he's so in love
He's finally got it right
I wonder if he knows
He's all I think about at night

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing
Don't know why I do

Drew walks by me
Can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly
The kind of flawless I wish I could be

She better hold him tight
Give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes
And know she's lucky 'cause

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing
Don't know why I do

So I drive home alone
As I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down
And maybe get some sleep tonight

'Cuz he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing
Don't know why I do

He's the time taken up but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into
Drew looks at me
I fake a smile so he won't see

***

So, there are black and white in the love story,.once it’s exciting but once it can be so damn hurting. I always questioned to myself like,“How could i fall in love with him?”,” Why him? Why not others? Why now?”. But when i thought about it more, I realized that i didnt want any other man, I just want him to be the guy that I love. Confusing??,,that’s why the more i think about him the more I like and also hate him.  Yeah, you’ve made me love you, Boy..

Artist: Miley Cyrus Title: 7 Things

I probably shouldn’t say this
But at times I get so scared
When I think about the previous
Relationship we shared

It was awesome, but we lost it
It’s not possible for me, not to care
And now we’re standing in the rain
But nothing’s ever gonna change until you hear, my dear

The 7 things I hate about you
The 7 things I hate about you, oh you
You’re vain, your games, you’re insecure
You love me, you like her
You make me laugh, you make me cry
I don’t know which side to buy
Your friends, they’re jerks
When you act like them, just know it hurts
I wanna be with the one I know
And the 7th thing I hate the most that you do
You make me love you

It’s awkward and it’s silent
As I wait for you to say
What I need to hear now
Your sincere apology
When you mean it, I’ll believe it
If you text it, I’ll delete it
Let’s be clear
Oh I’m not coming back
You’re taking 7 steps here
......

And compared to all the great things
That would take too long to write
I probably should mention
The 7 that I like

The 7 things I like about you
Your hair, your eyes, your old Levi’s
When we kiss I’m hypnotized
You make me laugh, you make me cry
But I guess that’s both I’ll have to buy
Your hands in mine
When we’re intertwined, everything’s alright
I wanna be with the one I know
And the 7th thing I like most that you do
You make me love you
You do

I had  just got smiled when i heard this song especially this part à “And the 7th thing I hate the most that you do.
You make me love you”

--THE END--
