My parents told me we were moving to Cincinnati, Ohio. My heart sank because all my friends were there and all my memories. But, one day my parents told me to go to the grocery store and try to meet new friends in my new neighborhood. I thought it was a terrible idea but, when I got to the checkout with all my food, there was a great guy bagging my items. My heart told me I was in love with him the moment he dropped my mayonnaise and the container hit the tile, and the green cap opened and the smelly liquid came out of the jar all over the freshly cleaned floor.

My senior year was when everything clicked into place and I knew what I want to do with my life, and that was flying.…
