Freshman Year:
Darius and I began to study everyday to try to get this college thing right. Darius was the one more keen on studying and getting to know the people on campus.
I was in the library and got approached by this guy. I think his name was Elliot or was that his last name? Not sure but after a while it was clear he wanted to find out if I was available. As soon as I mentioned my boyfriend the conversation was over.
Darius met a guy, his name is Alexander Davis and apparently they have hit it off. I am glad that my brother met someone and that this guy seems nice.
Prof. Calderon came over to discuss Darius' Grades. He honestly hurt Darius' feelings when he told him that either Darius' gets it together or he will not make it past Freshman year.
Darius was concerned and voiced his fears to Alexander who told him to just take it easy and get to studying. In the end we both finished the semester, Darius got a C with a scholarship of $400. I got an A with a scholarship of $1,200.
Sophmore Year:
Alexander and my brother are officially a couple. I hate to admit that i'm a little jealous that my brother has his boyfriend here while mine is so far away. In the end I am just glad that Darius is happy.
Being that I got an A last year I am taking it a little easier. At least I can breathe a little easier this time. I kind of like this video game more than my biology this year.
Where did the time go? All of a sudden Darius reminded me that finals were coming up. I hate to admit that I have been slacking a little this year. It's been hard with all of the social activies and let alone the offer to study one Master's class. I may want to go for my Master's so why not take advantage.
I guess Darius was too in love and I too into my social campus life. We both were placed on Academic probation with less than two weeks to make our classes up. Darius looked just as disappointed as I am.
Darius told me that Alexander was disappointed and promised to help him study.
Finally Kompol had saved enough to come and see me. I was so excited that I just jumped into his arms. I still could not believe that he was here in the flesh. We talked about so many things including making a life for ourselves.
Our visit was cut short since one of my classmates told me that there was a man looking for my brother or me outside. It turned out to be my uncle Austin Miguel. I was shocked to see him on campus. He had actually come to talk to my brother and myself.
We settled into the living room of our dorm. I was a little worried that one of our parents were sick or worse. It turns out that our uncle was coming to tell us that we were officially being pulled out of college. Both of our jaws dropped. I questioned why but he told us that our moms saw no need for having us here if the school was ready to drop us. What else could we do? We were officially being requested to leave school. Our uncle at least told us we still had the option of going to school at home. Needless to say that I was devastated.
Kampol made his entrance at that time and shocked all of us by saying that if I was leaving school then I could move in with him. I agreed but my uncle said that the discussion would have to be with my parents and not him. He was only to come and tell us that college dorm life was over for us.
Darius accepted his fate a little better than I did. I must admit that I was sad when I realized that he and Alexander would have to live apart. I guess the are going to keep their relationship and see where they are going to move to once Alex graduates. So for now either we move in with Kampol or rent an apartment ourselves or Darius moves back in with our parents. Hopefully our return to Viramontes willl not be that bad.
