Falling in love is like...

This time, I would like to share to you my English composition that I wrote when I was still in first year college...

Someone could easily escape from a gun, but he can never avoid the bullet. Just like in love.

You could easily avoid the person but never the love that strikes the heart. Saying that you will never fall in love is like saying that you will never smile. No matter how hard you try not to; someone is going to come along your way and make you smile.

Love... it is a terribly misunderstood emotion. Although highly desirable malfunction of the heart which causes cheeks to glow, weakens the brain, eyes to sparkle, blood pressure to rise and lips to pucker. Right?

For me, falling in love is like shopping because you may find a good person whom you thought is the right one but then again in the end, you will find yourself not contented and you will begin searching for a better one over and over again. Applying this principle, "No return. No exchange". It is like passing an obstacle course because to prove your love for someone, you need to pass all the challenges that might come in your way. Falling in love is also like the rain for me because it comes when you least expect it. Then leaves right just when you are starting to enjoy it. They say falling in love is like babysitting because you do not know what's really going on in a baby's mind. You cannot predict what he might react towards you and a baby usually has its mood swings. As a baby sitter, you can easily be annoyed of his mood swings and sometimes, it is you who ceaselessly swings mood but though, you still care for the baby. But in spite of all the sadness that love gives us, I can still say that falling in love is a very magical experience which gives a huge feeling of happiness and amazement of how that person turned your boring life into days filled with vibrancy and bliss. But then again, there will come a time that the magic will wear off and the happiness once felt will be gone and pain will replace. The battle will be to move on and find love once again. But remember that things are never lost completely; they are put away, misplaced or taken by someone else. Sometimes, they are transformed into something else. Just like the love that you have for someone who has gone. That love does not disintegrate. One day when you least expect it, you will find that things are less achy. You will be amazed on how much the heart can bear. And yes! You will be grateful for all that you have lost and all that you have found in time.

So remember, you can never escape the feeling of falling in love. Though you do not want it, you still have no choice but to do so. We will be encountering this phase of life no matter what.

---The grade that my professor gave me in this composition is only 14/20. HAHAHA! In this activity, we were given this peer editing checklist and my partner is Joni (as usual). I'm the Writer, she's the Editor. She said that the sentence that she like in the essay is this; "Saying you'll never fall in love is like saying that you'll never smile. (almost all part is interesting)". Credits to Shane's love quotes and random thoughts of my random friends :] (yes I've used some of them just to make my composition long)
