It all started in Optometry School when I first laid eyes on her. Yes, she was beautifully intimidating to approach at first, but I knew in my heart it was her. After a long week of studying I happened to run into her downtown and we danced to a T.I. song (shout out T.I.), we exchanged a few words and numbers (couldn’t hear at all, but I’m sure it went well) and parted ways. Let me tell you, man, she could dance! And just like that it all began. A few days went by and I couldn’t get her out of my mind. I was falling for someone that I hardly knew at the time. She decided to take a big step and drove up to Tampa on New Years to meet my family and friends. I could tell she fit right in, which meant the world to me. And just like that, it all began and our love story continues to grow. Yes, I truly believe there’s one person out there for everyone and I thank God everyday he put the perfect woman for me in my life.

Once upon a time there lived a prince and a princess who were both enjoying life and happened to go to the same Optometry School. The prince was boldly intelligent, had a massive brain, and was strikingly strong and handsome. He was so bright he didn’t even have to go to class. Ever. The princess was quite opposite - never missed a lecture. She was the fairest in all the land. They did not know of each other’s existence - their paths, although one in the same, had never crossed. Naturally, after a long week of classes, labs, working out and studying, it was time for a weekend break. Call it fate if you will, but both decided to go to the same extravaganza one evening. The gala was packed with people having a grand ole time: drinking, laughing, dancing, conversing. Ski shots were the main event and both of their worlds collided when they were asked to do a ski shot together. The prince and the princess locked eyes for the first time over a shared pour. It was magical! That night was the beginning of their happily ever after.
