We met through our mutual friend at Bowdoin College who worked at the Student Activities Center. It was a Friday night and after our friend finished up her shift, we all decided to go watch a movie at her dorm. We watched How to lose a guy in 10 days and Cristina still hates that movie. We all chatted, shared stories, and then called it a night. After the movie was over, Alex walked Cristina back to her dorm through a snowstorm and the whole time Cristina complained about how much she hated the snow and the cold. Alex wondered why she would move to Maine, but didn't bother asking. Instead, Alex suggested they make snow angels and before Cristina could say no he pushed her into the closest snow pile. At this point, Cristina learned two things. One, Alex would always push her to try things that make her uncomfortable and two, he was her complete opposite. Alex learned Cristina could get mad really easily. In the end, we finished our walk and said goodnight. No goodnight kiss. That would come a year later.
