What time?

Hey! I'm sorry because I know this is illigal here because I'm not searching for a fic but I really need to know something.

I'm writing one fic and I need some information to it. Can somebody tell me what time of the year (month would be nice because I know we don't know the exact dates) these happened:

- B and J met
- J left his home and moved to Deb
- Prom
- J met Ian
- episode 308

FOUND: Thank you so much for the info! You guys were fast!

I've always figured it was before the first anniversary of the prom, but then again that's just guess work.

That's one everyone is free to imagine...

Early in season 3, in the scene where Justin goes to see Craig trying to get some help with his tuition, he tells him something like, "...now that I've finished my first year..." of college.

So that must have been early summer, and if it had been a few weeks since he left Brian, he left around the anniversary of the Prom, but it could have been before or after.

Just pick a date. Nobody is really going to question it. :)

I've literally been trying to come up with a timeline for years, but it still hasn't worked.

I experimented with two different alternate theories once to force the timeline to work out. I tried to ignore what is commonly accepted about B/J meeting in early fall and tried to do a timeline with them meeting in January 2001.

I also did one where I ignored the fact the show premiered in the fall of 2000, and I moved everything up to have them meet in fall of 2001. Neither idea really worked; they ended up throwing other major events off.
