Reconnecting

I am reconnecting with people. 

The process is arduous. And not simple. 

How do you begin a new relationship with an old friend? 

My friendship with Ian is being rekindled slowly. 

He was the Syaoran to my Sakura in middle school. We had such a cute crush on each other. 

I remember he transferred to my school from New Zealand in 7th grade, and we instantly connected over our love of fantasy and the fact that we had almost all of our classes together. We were almost inseparable for that year, and remained close through 8th and 9th grade. 

We each liked different people during those times, yet our mutual crush on each other remained, hidden away in the background. 

Now he is graduating from Oregon State with a degree in Engineering, and thinking of Med School. 

It's interesting to see what has become of him. We are no longer the people we were. But back then, we were cute.
