The short story is that Mr. Pony and I met, began dating, and got engaged during law school. That story would suffice, but that would not fit with my loquacious personality, so you get to hear the whole thing.

I will set the scene for you.

It’s my first semester of grad school. I am stressed and overwhelmed by the all the changes occurring in my life. I meet about 400 people in the first week, including Mr. Pony. Despite the whirlwind of the first few weeks of school, I can still vividly remember my first memories of Mr. Pony, including:

• Mr. Pony getting called on at the practice class in front of our whole first-year class at orientation
• Mr. Pony being called on first in our very first class of the semester
• Seeing Mr. Pony hanging out at the bar celebrating surviving our first week of school
• Mr. Pony campaigning to be the class representative
• That sweet Pony smile

Then one night, Mr. Pony and I both attended a pre-gaming party before heading to an ’80s night at the bar. At the party we bonded over our matching cameras, being beer-pong partners, and his recent campaign victory. Our group then headed out to the bar and had a great time dancing and drinking to the hits of the ’80s.

Some proof of the fun:

Our very first (rockin’) picture together!

Mr. Pony had a good time.

After this epic night, Mr. Pony and I continued to be friends by hanging out between classes (Did I mention we had every class together?) and starting a study group.

There was just one catch. Mr. Pony had a girlfriend. (cue ominous music)
