Story
I walked onto TCU's campus for my first night of b-school. I was going to meet a lot of people this evening and was more than a little nervous. After a short cocktail hour we were ushered into a larger room with circular tables. The tables had placards with our names on them – between four and six at each. These names were to be the members of my first team and a team I would come to spend a lot of time with over the first semester. The first person that sat down was John. He was slightly goofy but a nice guy and we started talking. Shortly after we were joined by Sagar. He was a quiet student from India, but he also quickly fit into our conversation. Most people had taken their seats by now, but we were still missing one member.
Out of what seemed like thin air appeared a young blonde. She walked up, saw her name, and attempted to break our existing conversation. She had a smile and a demeanor that immediately drew attention to her presence. I was fixated – but had no idea that this was the first time I had seen and would be talking to the love of my life. She introduced herself – Carrie Davis.
