ok. the universe works in mysterious ways. i had this friend in preschool. preschool. she was my best friend at the time, Suzanne. we had sleepovers, hung out at school, etc.. after preschool, i lost touch with her. that was how many years ago? [seriously, i can't count. but that was preschool and now i'm 20, so a long time ago.] cut to today. i get off the bus and walk across the street to my dorm. there are two people walking ahead of me, heading to the same dorm. i'm slightly annoyed because i'm crampy and when i'm crampy, i hate everyone for being on the same planet as me. the first girl opens the door and we walk inside, except her keys got stuck in the door and they fly outside. i might be crampy, but i can't act mean so i get them for her. i hand them to her and as we walk inside the dorm, she asks, "Are you Jessica?" i say "Yeah." and then she asks me if i went to Laurel Hill Preschool. i'm going 'how the hell can someone remember someone else from preschool?!' but she looked familiar. when she told me her name, i was shocked to say the least. it was Suzanne. apparently she had moved to the East Bay when she was in first grade. she said my name on the door sounded familiar. i'm still in shock. the odds of me ever seeing her at all were practically impossible. what are the odds that she wouldn't just go to my college, but that she was in the same dorm, on the same floor?! if i hadn't gotten on that bus [which was a very real possibility because it was packed], if i hadn't switched my section times [i would be in class right now], etc... i just. wow. sometimes the universe can surprise you in a good way. =)

I had a moment like that when I had my driving lesson. (Well, I'm in the middle of them, but the first one.) I pull up to the second stop and I see my former friend from elementary school. We hadn't talked in years and then she was suddenly there!

Fun stuff.
