Cal and I met my freshman year at UGA while he was a sophomore. We worked together at UGA's rec center both as lifeguards. While we were considered work friends, we really didn't start hanging out until my junior and his senior year. Junior year, UGA played Texas in the Sugar Bowl down in New Orleans, and because of a mutual friend, we ultimately ran into each other in the student section. After the embarrassing loss to the Longhorns, Cal texted me after the game to talk about how awful it was. To that I replied, "who is this?" Even though we had texted prior to the game a few times about work events and scheduling, I am notorious for not saving phone numbers, but alas, finally saved his contact. When we returned to UGA after Christmas break, we continued to talk and found ourselves in the same Microbiology class. A couple weeks after watching Game of Thrones together and writing a Microbio paper, I asked him on a date night for philanthropy I was involved in. And I guess after that you could say the rest is history. 5 years together has brought us countless memories of date nights, football games (including 2 national championships), trips with friends and family and so much more. We are so excited to celebrate with everyone and can't wait to see y'all in June!
