On the topic of strange occurrences
So, even before my lovely fated encounter with new friend, Ami, I had another "double-take" moment.
Oh yes, by the way, it is 2AM. I am supposed to wake up in 7 hours for Relay for Life things, as well as passing the scrapbook to the representatives for Admit Day (Zenas and Eileen!) who will carry it out to Library Walk. In the effort to not make them wait, I have started making a list of things I need to bring or do for RFL by 10AM. Considering the 24 hour relay and Anime Fest to look forward to afterwards, I doubt I'll be conscious enough to enjoy most of the two (cumulative hours of sleep since Board Retreat 6 days ago: 25. Why am I still awake..).
Start of a new quarter. Springtime! New classes, new Circle K year, new work schedule, new opportunities! First day of the quarter... 6.5 hours of work! Yuck! Mondays and Fridays are the "walls" of my week. 9AM-10PM. No. Breaks. (30 minutes I guess...). But I'm still ready to go! Looking for ways to keep myself busy, therefore make the time go by quickly. I suppose I should just get to the point.
Our newly-selected supervisors are shadowing (following an established supervisor, learning the ... practice of being a supervisor?) this time of year, and the one in particular on the clock came up to me and asked if I was doing alright at Deli. She's a third-year, but she's been working only for 2 quarters. I think, by the way she asks me questions, that she doesn't know I've been here for nearly 2 years... Anyway, she proceeded to say how she was sorry that she didn't remember my name. When I told her she looked confused and glanced to my right. She apologized because she realized she had mistaken me for a temp girl (she had to fulfill "community service hours" as the disciplinary department had to assign) because she insisted we looked so alike.
Normally, when people say you look like another person, I would think we would be extra critical and say how they don't look like us (Some inherent wish to really be unique?? One-of-a-kind? I don't know). But as I glanced at her as well, I had to do a double-take. I honestly thought she looked like me! (If I saw myself a certain way, she was how I saw myself physically. I can already see we have somewhat different personalities.) I have never thought anyone looked so much like me (except for that one girl from cosplay.com: I saw one of her cosplay pictures and thought somehow that someone took a different set of pictures of me in my Rinoa cosplay and posted them online...). I was intrigued, but a little too shy to introduce myself (but when is that ever unusual for me? haha).
I was considering linking photos
.. ... oh what the hey.
Of course now, after having time to spend looking at pictures, I no longer think I look much like them.. though I think the genetic similarity seems to be the half-Asianness.

I thought the cooking picture was appropriate since she's cooking in it too...
