A Successful Party and Delicious Tea

"Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries.
Without them humanity cannot survive. "
-Dalai Lama

Last night my formal dinner party went over extremely well. There were a total of seven people who ended up attending the party, all were 06 graduates from LBJ with the exception of myself and Jill who is dating Josh, an 06 graduate. Everyone was enamored with my cooking, and as my mother said, "All the girls looked so lovely in their dresses"; Megan was especially beautiful in her spring dress.
Hmm, Megan now that is a complicated sector of my life. During her senior year and my junior year we were practically inseparable as friends. For the first few months of junior year I definitely had a very large and obvious crush on her. Unfortunately a very close mutual friend of ours told me she did not like me, and that even asking her to Homecoming would be a mistake. So I totally gave in and moved on to date the most similar girl to Megan I could find, Kristin. That relationship was brief and strained because we both obvious liked other people: she liked Jesse an asshole who ended up breaking her heart, and I still liked Megan.
During the end of my relationship though she became romantically involved with my best male friend at the time David Price. She ended up crushing him, not on purpose, but because she also liked someone else. Unfortunately that "else" was me, but I did not know that so I reignited an old relationship with Corinna, who I have dated on and off since seventh grade.
I have never really thought about those first few months of my relationship with Corinna. They were extremely painful. She was cold and purposefully detached; which really set the pace for the relationship. In fact for quite a while our relationship was a joke for a lot of my friends, between her cold actions and my easy going nature and jokes we would have made a great sitcom.
Of course her cold outward appearance is juxtaposed with her strong feelings of affection towards me. For so long she treated me like crap that for a long while she just drove me closer to my friends, specifically Megan. But then summer came and my senior year so Megan's freshmen year at UT. So I drifted further apart from Megan and I just sat in my own despair. Well not really I just swam a lot and took on whatever I could to keep my mind off my comically black relationship. Now though are relationship is now normal as she has finally shed her cold exterior and our relationship is great.
In 2 months I have to move into my dorm at USC, where my life will change radically which is why I started this blog in order to document this change. Well in two months I will leave Corinna for Los Angeles while she is heading for the East Coast. She wishes to remain together and well that is where is conflict lies. I am not opposed to staying together our relationship has been very fun, but for so long the relationship was less than enjoyable for me that I am reluctant to continue past the summer.
Well enough of the epic for now. More for later.
