Transferring to a new college was scary. The first day of my World Literature course I couldn't help but to notice this girl sitting in the very back.

If you've ever had a puppy, you know they're just like a baby. She was a handful and I soon realized I had bitten off more than I could chew. I figured that someone out there could dedicate more time to her and give her the life she deserved. I do miss her dearly and think about her almost every day and I pray that she went to a loving family. I severely regretted having to give her up an...
