This is how we met...

I read somewhere that as a blogger, one should not tell a chronological story because it assumes that everyone is going to read all of your blogs but that is not the reality of it. Since this blog is a personal outlet for me, I am going to do just that. I'm going to tell the story, chronologically. I'm going to make an entry whenever the idea comes to my head. This is where I will start...

I met Chris when I was only fifteen years old. He was twenty. My first impression of him was that he was way smart and innocent. He had big glasses and he parted his hair on the side. He wore polo shirts and dress pants. He came off socially awkward to me which was fine because I was also. He was too smart to hold a conversation with us normal people. I had different reasons for my social problems. I just didn't enjoy the company of others. He was attending Cal State San Bernardino studying physics. I had no idea when I met him that he would have the slightest bit of interest in me.

Chris's brother and my sister were set up on a blind date. Thankfully, they hit it off and nine months later, he proposed to my sister. My sister thought that it would be a fun idea to introduce me to Chris. How cool would it be for sisters to marry brothers? Sure, maybe I was too young to be thinking about marriage at that point but it was a nice idea. Our siblings decided to partner Chris and myself up to create invitations and handouts for their wedding. This was our first project together and it was a success.

If you were to tell me that just a few months later, at sixteen I was going to be completely and totally smitten by the man that I was going to spend the rest of my life with, I would tell you that you're crazy. But, that is exactly what happened.
