day two. first love.

I'm not actually quite sure that I've ever been in love.
Or maybe I have.. and I don't quite know what love is.

I don't really know.

So I'm going to tell you about my first crush, because truly, I don't know the first thing about love. 

First Grade.

His name was Sean, and he sat in front of me in Mrs. Larsen's class. We talked, we laughed, we played. It was wonderful. One day, he even stood up in class and announced that he was going to draw a picture of me because he thought I was cute. Of course, after hearing this, my entire year was made.

I even found a Journal dated back from those days. Hidden deep inside a pooh bear diary, under lock and key was a whole page devoted to Sean. It read as follows:

"I lik Sean"

I think that meant I liked him.. although I can't be positive. Maybe I licked him. It's possible... I was a weird child.

It was great! Until a rumor spread around the first grade like a nasty cold. Kelly liked Sean, and he (Gasp) liked her back. And... Even worse. They held hands once. First grade scandal of the year.

My elementary school hopes and dreams were crushed. I've spent the rest of my life trying to get over cute little Sean.

Not really. I'm pretty sure I spotted an empty swing right after and dashed across the playground to claim it.

And that was the end of that.
