Spectacular Weddings
W
hen I decided to transfer to Kansas State University, I looked forward to experiencing something new, but was not thrilled about leaving Texas. I had
also prepared myself to wait until I got back to Dallas to meet that special someone. The last thing I thought possible was that I would meet the love of my life in the middle of Kansas. I decided to live in the dorms for a while to meet people, but unfortunately I was a little older than all of the other first-year students. I was sharing my frustrations with a guy who lived in the dorms as well, when he told me there was someone my age that lived across the hall from him. Just then, the guy he was speaking of walked in the front door. He had obviously just been running. We were introduced and talked about how we both love to run and work out. He told me he would like to have a running partner and promised to come get me the next time he was going. Sure enough, a week or so later, he came to my room and asked if I would like to go work out with him. We ran to the gym, worked out, and got to know a bit about each other. Afterwards, he asked if I would like to have dinner with him. We had a wonderful time, and many other dates followed. Two years later, he followed me back home to Texas so that we could spend the rest of our lives together.
