whoa
So I have to share this short story. Those of you cats from Kansai Gaidai-- listen up to this madness!
I had just gotten home from class and was relaxing on the couch when my roommate and his girlfriend come home with someone they met at the bar. I recognized him, but couldn't put my finger on how I knew him. I chalked it up to Alaska just being a small town. While I was in the kitchen fetching some beer, I spoke a little Japanese to myself, and he answered! I popped my head around the corner, and we held a short conversation in Japanese. We both found out we had lived and studied in Hirakata-shi, and after a few seconds, realized we had taken a class together at the same institution!
I about died. Small fucking world.
So someone I've not seen or spoken to since 2003 comes into my house at random four years later! How cool is that?
