The Story of How we Met...

Brenna and I met on a twist of fate.  It was totally by luck.  We met in an Anatomy class during the summer semester of 2010.  It was luck because Brenna as a Human Development major does not need and should not have even been in an anatomy class.   But yet there she was sitting with her back to me as I walked into room on the first day of class.   It wasn't until later that I found out that the only reason she took the class was because she had decided to plan her future as if she were single, no longer 'assuming' that marriage was definitely in the future.  She was going to become a nurse and possibly join the Navy...just to have a stable job and so that she could adopt a child in the future.   If she would have never gone down that path than we would have never met and I would be without the love of my life...which is a scary thought.  Anyways back to the story, so I walk into class...notice my future soul mate...and naturally sit in an open seat...at a different table lol.  The pace of the class was very fast and I didn't have time or the opportunity to talk to her until the following week.  There we were, both heading to our cars in the same parking lot at the same time...this was my chance.  I quickly think of a line that will initiate a nice little conversation, "So, are you ready for the test next week?"  This would for sure get her to reply and maybe we could even study for the test together...or so I thought.  Brenna replied, "Yeah, I think so. I'll be studying all weekend though."  "Me too." I replied. There was a slight pause and then she said, "Well, good luck with that." aaaaand walked away to her car.  Great...so my perfect conversation starter didn't work out as perfectly as it had in my mind.  We didn't talk again till the next week when I got up the courage to ask her, "So how'd you do on that test?"  Hahaha no I'm just kidding, I wasn't going down that route again.  No, we had an open lab where we could stay after class and get some help with the homework.  Everyone at my table had left, and everyone at Brenna's table was still there so I rolled my chair over there and said hello.  Next thing I know Brenna and I are the last ones at the table, talking having a good time, learning a lot.  Then when the teacher was about to leave we went to the library and studied/talked some more, then we got hungry and went out to eat.  Aaaaand there ya have it...ten months later we're happier than we've ever been...we're deeply in love...we're engaged...and you're reading about it in our blog.
