We met during Allen Hall's Freshman Orientation in 2007 at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. It was a movie night in a mutual friend's dorm room, and we were both seated on the bottom bunk. While we were getting acquainted, a stray (full) bottle of Coke rolled off the top bunk and hit me right in the back of the head. I remember trying to play it cool in front of the group even though it really hurt! Sean, ever the protector, made sure I was actually okay. It was very sweet. That group remained close (to this day!), and Sean and I were dating by second semester. The rest is history!
