You know those people who you've met only by proxy, once or twice or seven times, who you just have to meet for real? The people who simply ooze hip and chill, who seem to have all of the friends that you wish you had and do all of the things you're not brave enough to try?
Not many of those people exist in everyday life, but I have had the pleasure of meeting several of them, one of whom is a lovely woman named Molly Schlieff. When we met, for real, in high school marching band two years ago, I realized that Molly wasn't all about hip and chill, that she had passions for art, community, and life in all its forms. Coolness comes in trends, but life is the longest thing you ever do (thank you, Dwight Schrute).
Now as we enthusiastically begin our college careers on opposite ends of the planet-- I, Connor, in the farthest place I know from home, Abu Dhabi, UAE; and Molly back in the Motherland of Minnesota, USA-- I believe we find ourselves closer than ever before, and so have decided to share our experiences in this blog about anything. Life will be dangerous and life will be hot.
