Back in 8th grade (Fall 2000), I played my first FF Game. And it brought back memories
Alot of stuff happened back then; My parents divorced, crazy stuff at school, but most notable was my first g/f. She had long beautiful blonde hair, the best smile ever and a nice figure for someone who played hockey
I also remember getting my first g/f, I kinda admired her my 7th grade year and we talked a little bit, but I was extremely shy around her. Then about a week into the 8th grade school year, I was so damn shy that I ran away from her when she and I made eye contact.
Well, she wanted to know what was up by any means necessary, so she sent her friends out to do a little "observation", because whenever she approached me I just ran away..........ya know?
This went on for about a month until that night at the fall dance. I was leaning up against a wall talking to some friends when the looked over and then just left. I was wondering why the hell did they leave? Then Callan (my first g/f's name) and her friends surrounded me.
At this point, I was so nervous that I thought I was gonna pass out. Callan then said to me "So...............you wanna get a drink?" When she said that, her friends just left. So I agree and get a drink with her. We sit down at a table set up in the cafeteria, we start talking and I'm feeling so nervous talking to her but as I'm talking to her, my fears just disappeared.
After about 15 minutes of drinking and talking, we proceed to the dance floor and we ended up dancing together for the entire evening. I also got my first slow dance that evening :D
The reason why I'm telling you this is because this all happened when I was into FF VIII, and that I've decided to play it again. FF VIII brought back memories.
