One of my many: Randomly staying at the same hostel at the same time with someone I graduated high school with--in Athens, Greece. The shock when I ran into her was astounding.<br><br>And kudos to you for having a highway dance party?!?! That's freakin awesome. haha LOVE these small world moments.

My friends even joke constantly here claiming I "know everyone," which obviously isn't true, but somehow I always seem to find myself connected to people in the strangest of ways. Like, I found you because I tweeted about going to Chicago and @doughamlin's all "You should check out @SydneyOwen," and I was all like "SWEET." And Doug's connected to an exbf of mine from college because they used to work together. That's just one example, but I'm always finding the weirdest connections either via Facebook or just in finding out where someone's from and that they know someone I know.<br><br>It is indeed a very small world. And I think our Internets make it even smaller. You would not believe the number of times stuff like that happens to me.

It is indeed a very small world. And I think our Internets make it even smaller.

Just last week I discovered a guy who works in the warehouse here is somewhat a cousin of mine. Now he's doing the old "Hey Cuz" thing every time I see him and now I want to punch him.
