Dear Girl,
I feel that the time has come for me to have a girlfriend. I know you're out there somewhere. Don't worry, I'll find you.
And when I do, I hope that you will love me because I'm Derek, not because I'm Mike's younger brother. I hope you won't be embarrassed when my clothes don't match, or be annoyed when I want to watch the Lakers on ESPN, instead of Party of Five.
I hope that you will remember I play soccer, not football, and that I play midfield, not defense, and that every weekend I live with my dad.
I pray that you'll love me despite my tendency to forget birthdays, and if your parents invite me to dinner, please write their names really small on my hand so I can use it for reference.
