It's a love story, baby, just said, "Yes!"

I had just joined Beta Alpha Psi at UCLA and attended a mentorship gathering hosted by Edward, Alice, and Nahi. Luigi wasn't part of my mentorship group, but my friend Jenny and I crashed his party the following week. All I took away from that meeting was that Luigi was a dancer and a skateboarder. I had asked him to dance for me and he said no. I also asked him to help me pick out a skateboard, which never happened. Anyway, that was the start of attending weekly Thursday night hang outs at Luigi's apartment for the rest of the school year with a close group of friends. We were good friends for a few months until we started dating.

It was the first week of class during Spring quarter of 2017. I was sitting by the door when I saw a familiar face appear. "Hey Amy," I said. But without a word, she turned around and started going in the opposite direction in the hallway. I got up off my seat and ran after her. "Wait a minute, where are you going?" I said. "I thought this wasn't the right class because you're here," she said. I don't know why but I knew she was in the right class and must've been startled to see me. Since the class ended right around lunch time and I was an upperclassman no longer living in the dorms, I jokingly threw out that she should swipe her card to get me into the dining hall. She was surprisingly receptive and said sure. One lunch led to the next and eventually to going on dates, and the rest is history.
