It's a Small World

It's interesting the people you meet. Today I was a wee bit later than I would've liked getting to Mass, so I took a seat in a row near the back. A young man was sitting on the other end of the row. Apparently guys are afraid of girls at this school, because several guys came and sat in our row, making a point to go around and sit at the other side of the pew. The YM (young man) who started out on the other end of the pew wound up sitting right next to me.

Cut to brunch after Mass. As I'm sitting in the Caf with several friends, a guy walks up and asks if he can sit with us. It was - you got it - YM. Creepy? Perhaps. He's a perfect gentleman, though; another friend was walking past in high heels, slipped, and spilled copious amounts of coffee all over the floor, and YM cleaned up the whole mess while she tried to get her bearings.

And yes, I do know YM's real name. No, I'm not going to post it on cyberspace. But he's a great guy, nonetheless.

I also just got involved in the wonderful world of Twitter. (I'm behind the times, I know...I just didn't have a reason to before.) Hopefully, this will help me with an internship for the summer. My neighbor down the street back home swears by Twitter, claiming that it's the best thing that ever happened to the internet since Google. I guess I haven't been involved long enough to see what all the hype is about. And I've become (relatively) accustomed to Facebook.

Plus, in case you couldn't tell, I'm not all too big on updating things regularly. I have accumulated about ten followers, so I guess I'm off to a good start. I have some snazzy background artwork in the works, just in case I become a sudden hit or something.

This reminds me of a play FUS is putting on right now called "The Water Engine." It's about a man who creates an engine that runs on water as its only fuel (hence the title). However, he runs into problems when he goes to patent the miraculous machine. It's a very interesting story, with a good lesson: "All people are connected." It's something to remember, even in a secular mindset.


God bless,
