I met Clara at San Juan College almost two years ago. It was the first day of class and I was completely lost trying to find my American Lit class. She was the first person I saw, and I knew I wanted to ask her for directions. She was absolutly clueless as to where my class was, in fact she was more lost than myself, but she dropped everything to help me find my way. From that day forward, I knew she was right for me.
Since then we have been through a lot. We spent a lot of time together in Farmington. Oddly enough, her parents even liked me. She transferred to UNM at the beginning of the year. She wanted to go to a bigger school where she could expand her horizons. When she left I was completely devastated. I lost all of my ambitions and locked myself in my room. It took a while for me to realize I just had to deal with it.
We talk every day and see each other on most weekends. She is coming to Durango this weekend and I am extremely excited. We are going to check out Game Space, a new game hangout in town. I will report back soon!
