How did you meet Erick?	We met during freshman orientation week. The school took us bowling. I liked to bowl and had gotten pretty good over the years. Erick showed up at our lane and we became friends. I taught him how to spin the ball--he got it right away and ended up beating me the rest of the night. Typical Erick.
Favorite Memory with Erick	In the fall of 2007, we started our first year of architecture at AU. About a week into the semester, he randomly started going to the dorm just to hangout at the pool table. The pool table was right in front of my room, so one of those first nights that he was there, we played pool all night. No ordinary pool games--we ended up making our own games, learning to properly jump, spin and who knows what else. Around 5:30 a.m., we decided we had to sleep cuz we had class by 8:30 a.m. He ended up sleeping in my room on the floor, though by the time I woke up at 7:30 a.m., he was gone. Saw him in class like nothing had happened. There are definitely other memories that will remain silent to maintain both our reputations and our cover.
Any Advice?	I don’t know how constructive my advice is in regards to marriage but besides the usual, stay close to God and be a good communicator. I’d say, stay creative. If there’s one thing that sets you apart, it’s the extent that you’re willing to go to be original and innovative. Keep surprising Lindsey and reminding her how special she is and how lucky you were to find her.
