4/25: mentioning

...volleyball to a student I had advised when they were a freshman (they're now a senior).  I had remembered their talking about volleyball (and how they weren't going to play it in college) in our earliest conversations, and I wanted to show that I still remembered who they were.  And then they said something like, "Well, you'll never guess...."  The student had studied in France and while there played on a professional team, even in international competition!  That was fun to hear about, and I never would have if I hadn't pulled out that little memory.
