Summary

How do you break up with a calendar year? Start by listening to tales of teenagers that do their damndest to move on from heartbreak. One, a story of a teenager during the Vietnam War era who tries to get over her ex before he comes back from being stationed overseas. And the other, a story of an exchange student who makes a long, awkward goodbye to her first boyfriend.
