Notice Me!

Hello!

I’ve been itching to post my super-cliché story here on my blog because (for me) it is super fun and (relatable). LOL. I am always trying to post stories or ideas that makes my brain work and think more but it’s nice to write stories that are pleasant to do once in a while, right?

Anyway, this is inspired by the phone app, Notice me Senpai! (it is like Neko Atsume, but you collect guys instead of cats hahahaha). I’m totally addicted to that game so I decided to make a story derived from that one! Hehe

Title: Notice Me, Please?

Format: Short Film

Language: English, Filipino, a bit of Hangul and Nihonggo

Story:

Jenna is a 2^nd year college student who loves watching J-drama and K-dramas. Because of this, she is the typical fan girl who gushes about Oppas (Korean term for older guy/brother/also endearment for a guy someone finds an interest with) and Senpais (the Japanese counterpart of Oppa). It was the start of new semester when she was enrolled in a class with 2 international students---one is a cute and baby faced Korean guy with round reading glasses named Se Han and the other one is a charming Japanese guy with curly mop head hair and cute smile named Takahiro.

The teacher was assigning the seats when Jenna was tasked to seat between the Se Han and Takahiro. Being a shy girl, Jenna is too stiff and awkward around the guys. Since she is too shy to start a conversation, the two boys are quiet around her as well. Her expectation is for her to exchange jokes and be close with the guys, just like what she sees from watching J and K dramas. But in reality, the semester went by with no progress between Jenna and the guys---she was so passive that she wasn’t able to make friends with them.

When the next semester arrived, Jenna was in regret for not being friendly to the two guys. Although she finds them cute and much like the idols she adores in drama shows, Jenna seems too powerless that she literally runs or quickly avoids the guys the moment she notices them. To the eyes of Se Han and Takahiro, Jenna looks like the traumatized kid who got a bad experience from being their seat mate when in reality, Jenna wants to know them more.

It was only 6 months away before graduation and Jenna resolved that she wanted to be friends with Se Han and Takahiro before they graduate. With limited time and a late realization, Jenna will try the most subtle and even the most obvious actions and methods just for them to notice her. And if they notice her, who will she pick among the two? Is it the cute and child-like Se Han or the mature and free spirited Takahiro?

^So let me explain for this one. I know that it doesn’t really sound good that girls chase after boys with such measures. But this is inspired by romantic Asian films wherein girls do the moves for the boys. I am not degrading any sexes here. This is just a work of fiction that wants to depict a cute, teen-ish, puppy love type of romantic story.

Anyway, here are some Oppa and Senpai memes I would like to share. hehehehehe.
