July 25, 1995
I have now officially graduated from high school. At the ripe age of 18, the world is mine for the taking, and I have no idea what i'm going to do with it. Jennifer just tuned 13 a few months ago, and is just as beautiful as ever. It just sucks that she couldn't be a couple years older.

It was Tuesday evening, that church was in the middle of their VBS (Vacation Bible School) program. Jenny and I had both volunteered to help out. Turns out that we both got put in classes right next door to each other.

Now let me tell you something about Jennifer's best friend Jennifer. She was a B-R-A-T, brat. She was loud, rude, obnoxious, a trouble maker, bad influence, a thief....need I go on. Jennifer and Jennifer where like polar opposites. I just don't know how they ever got along, but they did. Jennifer (the ugly one) and I just did could not even stand to look at each other. Which made it very difficult for Jennifer (the cute one) and I to hang out at the church youth functions.

Anyway, back to the story....

Second day of VBS. Jennifer (the ugly), who also volunteered to help, came running into my class, just minutes before we where supposed to get started, and asked if I liked Jennifer (the cute one). Well of course I did, that was no secret, and that's exactly what I told her. Just as quickly she ran out of the classroom, only to return a minute later. She then asked me If I wanted to go out with her. Well of course, but she was too young, and that was my reply again. Again, she darted out of the room, again, to return a moment later. She said the two of us are now going out and then left.

Dazed and confused, I went next door to talk to Jennifer (the cute one) to find out what was going on. She told me that Jennifer (the ugly one) thought it was a good idea. Now I can't stand her (the ugly one) and I knew she the feeling was mutual, so I knew something was up. But, I was finally with the woman of my dreams, so I wasn't going to complain.

To celebrate our new (secret, but because her mom would kill both of us if she found out) relationship, we went to go hang out at Wal-mart. They had some plush sports balls. I bought the football, which represented her (tall and skinny), and the soccer ball, which represented me (short, and not quite so skinny). She took home the soccer ball, and I took home the football.

I knew that this was the beginning of what I knew would become a beautiful relationship.

To be continued......
