Back my younger days, I was put at a person put on me. I lived in an enchanted castle. Here's the thing everybody.

Me there was also cursed and turned into the items like candlesticks wardrobes clock anyway. First wasn't going to be lifted until you know true, love came along and, ultimately that that happened. She showed up at my castle unfortunate.

D

Thing is when I was first cursed. The witch put.

I

This hex on me that caused me to be really grotesque and deformed that part hasn't fixed yet, but the candlestick turned back into a person, so that's cool I like to plus she did she likes singing out in the courtyard for all them. People we've.

F

Been together for 32 years, 31 of them married when.

E

We were sophomores in college, we met at a party for about five minutes and then we never saw each other again for two years and two years later, when more seniors, we met again at a Mexican food. Restaurant called Julio's, which is now hustles pizza.

F

Buy anything because she's got me, he's gift enough and I'm gift enough right when.

H

It falls on the weekdays yeah.

D

I

Really don't you know why.

D

Cannot pop, he doesn't like to celebrate Valentine's Day because he feels like it's just trying to cram all the love that he has for me and one day and that's just not enough fun. So he tries to do it every day, because we.

E

Do every Valentine's, Day I get a dozen red roses and he cooks me steamed. Lobster dinner.

C

It's really not that big a deal. We don't really see each other. All that often eat lunch together. That's about it! It's.

C

I

C

Here I'm gonna say.

J

This and I'm gonna.

I

Be serious for once honestly, she worked about 20 yards down the hall from me and I feel like I'm, the luckiest guy in the world that she is right there all day, if you're thinking about getting married or you're with somebody that you're thinking about marrying, if you think man I couldn't work down the hall from him, I'd need my time away.

I

You're marrying the wrong person. It's.

F

We really don't see each other very much I hear stories about what I've done, because we're in the same building, but mostly we don't see each other until the end of the day. Happy.

C

Valentine's Day sweetheart, the gifts.

A

It makes you look at our teachers a little bit differently on the hill last.

B

Week many of our football players took took part in National Signing Day here on the hill National.

A

Signing Day is a day we're senior athletes on their letters of commitment to specific college or university to continue their athletic and academic work at the college level. If.

B

You weren't able to make it our team was there. Let's take a look.

K

Academic info beaucoup at the universe.

K

I'm excited about been gaining new experiences and uh leaving.

K

My teammates, the most people I play with in the coaches.

E

K

Think it would be like they're, not work. They'll have to do and.

G

The competition for college is that just the games in the atmosphere, that's gonna, bring compared to Huntington high, because there's gonna be a lot more fans. Gonna be a lot more excitement going into it. That's gonna, be the most different for college as compared to high school. Is that it's gonna be a lot more businesslike and I'd like to devote a lot more time to college and because I'm not to have a lot more time to practice. I have a lot more time left I, don't have to do a lot more.

G

The thing I'll miss most is being able to play with the people. I grew up with since, like Youth, League and stuff, like that. So it's going to be a lot of different playing with new people and building new relationships. What.

J

I'm most excited about is just the opportunity to be there to be able to play, because most people don't get that opportunity to make it to the next level or anything is gonna be most different. It is college is a business. You know it's its work every day and classroom out of classroom. You know it's gonna, be a lot harder than high school for sure. I'm, probably miss playing my brothers on Friday Night Lights, you know, gets Christian as always, there's nothing like high school ball.

J

That's not gonna miss playing my guys, I played for the last four years. I'm excited.

H

To play against people that are bigger, stronger and faster than me, and that competition would be better. The biggest thing is is that everybody lifts and everybody's working hard to get to that next level. So it's just gonna be harder, I, guess the most I'm gonna miss about playing for Huntington High, who had to be playing with my teammates and even though I've only been here for two years. It's been a really good experience playing with everybody, I'm gonna I'm gonna miss that the most.

L

To get better competition, better competition, the atmosphere playing for your school with the best mates, speed with him people faster stronger burden, is.

A

Congratulations to all of those athletes that song last week, we can't wait to see what you guys accomplished in the near future. Sure.

B

Is an exciting time to be a Highlander? Isn't it it.

A
