Raj & Ellie first met in the ceramics studio at the University of North Florida. Ellie was in an intro class and Raj was always in the studio working on his advanced projects. Outside of class Raj would help Ellie with her assignments, as she was not very good at using the pottery wheel. Christmas break came and Ellie was leaving for Germany when Raj demanded that she bring him a souvenir or he would throw water balloons at her. She didn't believe his threats, but she bought him something anyway. When she got back she invited him to her moving out party and presented him with a German das boot. And as they say, the rest is history.
