He was visiting friends in NY on his way to Boston to visit some friends he'd met in Peru (his dad lived in NY when he first came here) - met at a party, I told him his name was weird (like I'm one to talk) then went our separate ways until he found me on myspace. The rest is history.

While on vacation. I became LD friends with him; but was dating someone else. I broke up with my boyfriend and started dating Jomo a few months later. The rest is history.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

I went down as a missionary and became good friends with the people in the church. Third trip down one of my JA friends introduced us. He actually went to the church that I was a missionary at. We started as just friends but it obviously grew to more over time.

I'm in grenada as a Peace Corps Volunteer. After being here 6 months I went to a Reggae show for Valentines day with friends (just the girls). It started raining and a man came over to me an my friend and sheltered us with his big umbrella. We've been together ever since.

We sorta met first in Belize City or at least that's when we noticed each other. But it wasn't until that same night that we ran into each other on Caye Caulker that we became friends. It was so much fun and just thinking about it makes me smile (L)
