Vlad the goldfish? Somehow, he doesn't sound quite as fearsome as his namesake, but I could be wrong ;)

I feel happy and sad for you at the same time. Happy, first of all, that you've met someone that you care for and admire so much. I can definitely remember the feeling, even though it's only happened to me a few times, and the best way I can describe it is like stepping into heaven, just for a weekend.

It's really unfortunate that he's run into trouble with the school and might not come back. I don't know how strict the administration is going to be, but if he's talented I'm sure that there's something that could be worked out. Have you stayed in contact with him through other means?

I'm doing well, life goes on with its usual ups and downs. I'd love to hear from you again =)
