Almost everyone will meet, or has met someone in college that has significantly changed their lives. For me, it didn't take long at all for me to meet that person. I met her on our second day of college of our first semester, basically my second day of my entire college career. I didn't realize it right away, but over time I noticed that she was really changing my life. I would have never met this person in high school because first of all she lives in a different town, but even if we did live in the same town, or even went to the same high school, I still would have never known her because I didn't really branch out and make a lot of friends back then. I always hung out with the nerds, and my teammates from the baseball team, and she hung out with a completely different crowd that I wasn't associated in during high school. It wasn't a bad crowd, I just didn't branch out and try new things very much. It’s hard to explain the connection her and I have. We are very similar in many aspects, but really different in others. She has a different family background than me, she has three older sisters, and she is the youngest. I too am the youngest, but I only have an older brother and an older sister, so we grew up in different family environment. Another significant factor is that she grew up with just her mom, and when I found this out I couldn't imagine what it would be like to grow up and live without my dad. This really made me rethink my relationship with my dad, and made me so much more grateful that I was able to grow up with both parents.

I’ve never been a huge religious person, so I rarely went to church, let alone a Spanish mass. I don't know very much Spanish besides what I learned in high school, so I didn't understand much, but it exposed

Before I met her I was never really happy, and I went through my days feeling without a purpose. I looked forward to the day ending more than I looked forward to trying to make the day fun. I never met anyone with a personality like her’s before. I only hung out with my fellow nerds in high school, so we all pretty much had the same nerdy personality. She was not like this at all. She’s a very caring person. She’s full of sarcasm and jokes all the time, and is rarely ever serious, except when need be of course. But this easygoing, fun personality in someone is exactly what I needed in my life. She’s one of those types of people whose word is golden, and if she promises something to you, she will not break it. Out of all the people that I’ve met over the years that said they’d be there for me when I need them, she was the only one to prove it to me. She was the exact stability that I needed in my life that made me happy, and I actually started to have a positive outlook on
