HER: Where to begin, Oh yeah... Who would of known... having a crush on someone I saw at a four way stop a while back... to actually daring myself to introduce myself with shy eyes, 4 months later, with no intention of any matter but simply to find out his name, later on we would become friends and a bit later I would offer him my heart. Not only my heart but I can honestly say he has become my dearest and most precious best friend.
17 months, 3 weeks and 3 days today has passed with many smiles, laughs, making fantastic memories, with much love and support we have overcome obstacles together and you have help me face my own, the difference was that you were there... With a smile on my face I can comfortably say I am so happy to have someone like you to call "friend" and proud that you are still standing beside me today!
With no other feeling but pure gratefulness... THANK YOU!, thank you so much for pushing me to become the best of me, for sharing my believes and respecting my ways, for putting up with me and helping me raise Sebastian, for the love and the acceptance and all the patience and effort you put towards everything.
My heart, the early possession you obtained, and the absolute power you have obtained over it, leaves not the smallest space unoccupied. I look back to the beginning while in Salem, the early days of our friendship as the days of love, and, with an indescribable pleasure, I have seen our affection heightened and improved by time, from my mind the image of you, your smiley face, my dear untitled crush to whom I gave my heart.

Law School: Year One Completed!
HIM: Good day friend and welcome back to the Four Way Stop!
So, it's been a few months since we last posted to blogspot... I apologize with appropriate vigour. However, there have been sufficient obstacles to updating during the weeks since. Namely, law school papers, classes, finals, and weekend trips, movies, dinners, and the usual mundanity. After the dust has settled, it appears that Vanessa, Sebastian, and I have all survived the spring!
Vanessa's job with Bistro Aix is going very well. As the saute whiz ("chef"), she is performing miracles in the kitchen and working hard in that way that makes us all proud to know her. =) Last night, we had a little get together with Wes, Meaghan, and Jason, and she churned out an amazing lasagna dish in only 20 minutes. We enjoyed some pisco sour that she whipped up from a drink her mom brought a few weeks back. It was a good evening.
As well, Sebastian has been visiting his grandparents in Peru for some weeks this summer. He is enjoying attending an academy there that makes our pre-schools seem like the oar decks of a summertime, cross-Atlantic galley voyage... Every classroom has a patio and playground, and they have numerous activities (like karate and music) that the kids can learn and train in. If only more parents believed in educating their children, instead of just dumping them into someone else's care, we'd have better schools/families/parents/kids here too. Oh, well.
Speaking more on education... While I won't name the individuals, we appear to have lost a number of classmates to the "C" curve cut-off at Florida Coastal. It's a brutal curve and appears only somewhat fairly applied. Class curves at aren't uniformly distributed from one class to the next and it "weeds out" the lower eschelons of that curve. Anyone caught with a competitive (between classmates) cumulative gpa below 2.0 ("C") is instantly booted from classes after the 2nd semester. On FCSL's behalf, however, any university that wants to maintain a high level of quality and justify charging enormous tuition amounts may do what they want (I guess). And the facilities really are top-notch. It's just a shame that we won't be able to see some of our friends anymore. That's life, I suppose... Hopefully, they won't disappear forever!
I am taking Professional Responsibility, Business Associations, and Interviewing and Counseling this summer, so I haven't had much time to avail myself of the fruits of June yet. Cramming 4 months of classes into 2 months means 2x the reading and classes and half the fun of a social life. Luckily, Vanessa and I have had a little time to ourselves the last few weeks and should have some more as the summer goes on.
