"Jason and I met in 1997 in our homeroom class. He was the skater kid
who had jnco's and shoulder length hair.
I was the goodie two shoes- who also had shoulder length hair. We had
all of our classes together- even Spanish (his name was Pedro and
mine Estrella.) We continued to be friends in 7th and 8th grade. Upon
entering high school we were 2 fish in a sea of 2,000 teenagers.
Subsequently we lost touch. In the summer of 2007 our mutual
friend Nicole was about to go to Egypt for a summer course. We
both wanted to hang out with her so the three of us met and
Jason and I were reconnected. When that happened we knew we
both needed to be together more often. We started
hanging out more and six months later we were a couple."
