We first met in August 2015 at the University of South Carolina. We had just moved in to college and Conner invited Regan to a party at the Charles Edward apartments - for those who know the Chuck Ed it's a miracle she stuck around. We didn't speak much during the fall semester, but wound up in the same calculus class during the Spring - some would say it's fate that Conner failed his Fall try at Calc 122. Fast forward a few weeks and Regan takes Conner to the hospital from class, staying late through the night as doctors managed a chronic kidney issue. Grateful and smitten, Conner saw a second chance and took it, offering up a date at Columbia's finest eatery..... Old Chicago. Mediocre pizza and a mac n cheese bowl turned into getting food between classes, going out, and getting a dog (!). We had our first official date on January 28 and haven't looked back since.
