We met at Stanford University. It was a fleeting yet lively summer from the day I saw her park her bike in front of the dorms to the day she got in that car headed to SFO international.
I always thought that long distance couldn’t properly work especially one with a 16 hour time difference, SF to Tokyo. I always thought that life was too big of a distraction and to be apart from her would be unbearable. What I’ve come to quickly realize was that giving up because of sound logic is irony to what love is.
I’m seventeen, and naturally I have as strong a grasp on the meaning of love as I do on long-term equity anticipation securities, yet soon I’ll understand them both.
I’m not sure how to quantify my feelings for her, but it’s 5:31am, I’m staring at this cute girl across Skype and I have a satisfaction unlike most.
Her name is Nanami, the seven seas when translated from Japanese. It’s seven days till our anniversary.
