Question

I met Billy the last summer before college. He was handsome and his irreverence(玩世不恭) was1to me. We liked each other the first instant we met.2, I was a straight A student and my parents had high hopes for me to3an Ivy League (常春藤聯(lián)盟) school. Billy did not concentrate all his attention4 his study and school life. However, we were in love --- so5 teenager love. I still remember we had a plan for prom(舞會(huì)). It was understood that we had6 about where we would dance and drink and party together.
This meant one thing to my parents---panic. And it grew as the7letters began to roll in. Of the eleven schools I applied to, nine accepted me. And one of them was Brown University---the Ivy League8in 1770 in historic Providence, Rhode Island.
There was no9 that I was drawn to Brown, but Billy (who had joined the army) was10down south and I had offers11 for me there, too. I was torn between my love for him and my family12.
One week13 the start of school, my mother had a talk with me. She said I was eighteen years old and I had a14to make--- one that went15 beyond the choice of16to attend university.
In August, I17 and drove north to Providence. It took several months to18that my life was moving on in a way that was completely different from Billy’s. Brown changed my life, opening doors and giving me the19I now use to think, to learn and to write. Life is always about20it seems, and the older I get, the more I understand this. Still, there are times when I think of Billy because he taught me about love.
