A Grand Coincidence

We begin with Social Dance 1, last quarter. I have to say, it was a really fun class and it turns out that I really like dancing. Anyways, my point of being there wasn’t, in fact, to meet ladies but rather to learn to dance. It was fun, though, meeting ladies, and on the last day I got to dance with a particularly exuberant young lady. It was pretty exciting. I got her first name, but that was it. Before I could talk to her any longer she was gone and I figured since it was the last class, chances were I’d never see her again.

So come the third day of classes this quarter and I’m on my way to Japanese class. Now this course alternates between the second floor of one building and the third floor of another. I went to the right building, but started looking for the classroom on the second floor (even though it was on the third). Finally, I check and find that it is indeed on the third floor, so start heading to the stairs.

My path is obstructed, however, by a class that’s just getting out. And who else appears but this person I had given up all hopes of ever finding again. Not willing to squander this miraculous coincidence, I grab her attention and find out that she’s going to a salsa dancing thing Saturday. I will attend, and hopefully see her there.
