Many of you have probably heard how we met at our school climbing wall, and that it was actually Cameron’s brother Wesley who made things happen, but if you want to know the full story, now’s your chance.

Christina and Cameron first met on February 22nd 2020. That’s a whole lot of two’s. Now if you’re superstitious (like us) a quick google search will tell you that all those two’s mean something like true love is coming or that a soulmate is near. It can also be a confirmation about current choices Seems like a coincidence? Believe it or not there’s more.

This is a part of our story that a lot of you might not have heard yet. Why? Partly because it’s a little embarrassing, partly because its very personal, and mostly because you wouldn’t believe us if we told you.

Let us set the scene for you: going back about two (!!) weeks before we met, it’s just before Valentine’s Day. Christina is halfway through her second year at CSU and Cameron his first. Christina had been feeling particularly dejected lately and one night (after a few glasses of wine) had a heart to heart with “The Universe.” During this conversation, if you can even call it that, she expressed how bored and stagnant her life had become, and as a 19 year old girl might, she asked the universe to send her something or more particularly someone to “shake things up” we’ll say. Although there’s no physical proof of this “conversation,” I can promise you all she would not be broadcasting this deeply embarrassing personal low to EVERYONE SHE KNOWS if it wasn’t true.

Meanwhile, all the way on the other side of campus, Cameron is experiencing his own companionship crisis. Tired of only spending time with his roommates, Cameron wrote his own letter to God, asking for someone to come into his life to go on adventures with and share a connection (this one we do have physical proof of – see it at the wedding!).

Fast forward to the 22nd and Christina and Cameron both ended up at the CSU climbing wall on a Saturday morning. Cameron went with his brother Wesley, who had been visiting for the week, and a couple of his dorm mates, and Christina had gone by herself to clear her head after a crazy couple of days of the universe spicing up her life. Cameron noticed Christina climbing, and immediately knew. He turned to his brother and said “That girl’s got a great ass.” How romantic!

The romance continues with their first date. The date started at the place it all began, the CSU rock wall. Things were going well, conversation was flowing. Cameron being the smooth guy the he was suggested that they continue the date during dinner. Christina mentioned that she loves Chinese food and recommended her favorite place in Fort Collins. It’s an understatement to say that Cameron was broke. With $20 to his name and a silent prayer, they arrived and the esteemed “College Café”, a true staple of the CSU experience.
