Letter Twelve

Hey Spencer,

The past few days few days have been uneventful. My rowing class is going well I am even going early tomorrow to watch the high school team practice. The guy who teaches my class is the coach of the high school team. I have just been missing you more and more each day. I went to UCLA to work out and got a 25 dollar parking ticket because I forgot to renew my decal, so that really sucked. I just have been thinking of you lately. Do you remember when we first met?

A friend hooked us up and you were going to take me riding for the first time. I met you outside of UCLA because you had rowing practice that morning. We trailered out to your favorite trail and were on the horses by 10am. I remember being anxious to meet you all week and you had kept calling to change the times first it was at noon, then eleven, and finely you called the day before and wanted to meet at nine. I remember all my friends kept telling me it was a date but I thought it was just a friendly meeting; little did I know things would turn out to be so much more. We had so much fun riding around the trail and then you spotted a hole in the fences and we went to go explore the other side. Do you remember us getting lost? We didn't make it back to the trailer till 4 that afternoon, I couldn't sit down for a week! We had so much fun talking. We discovered we both like to read the last chapter of a book before we start to get into it so that we know we would like how it ends. We had almost everything in common except you didn't like salad or anything green except peas, which were my favorite. I remember we went to go eat at steak-n-shake and then hung out at your house. You showed me all your old photos and we talked about horses and school, I didn't leave your house till 11:30 and I knew that I had met my soul mate. There isn't anything that I wouldn't give up to be able to go back to that day and relive it. Meeting you was one of the happiest days of my life because it was the first day I fell in love with you.

I wish we could go riding for my birthday later this year,
