Welcome to my life, new friend!

I'm not going to do this too often but what happened to me yesterday deserves that I talk about someone other than myself. It's not that I'm so conceited that the only person I will talk about is myself; it's that I don't have anyone's permission to refer to them and I am not trying to step on any toes. Anyway! I was hanging out by the pool yesterday with a friend from school. There were a couple other people there that I did not know, but there were so few of us that we were all talking to each other. One of the dudes there heard my accent and asked where I was from. After telling him I was from Trinidad and 20 minutes of questions from him, (in which he carefull masked his accent) he revealed that he too was from Trinidad!! He went to Baylor undergrad and just finished grad school. Crazy right?! Also, one of his friends from Trinidad was supposed to come visit him yesterday but his plans fell thru. Turns out I met his friend 5 years ago before I started college. He was interning for my dad and we met for lunch to talk about the SATs and schools I should apply to. I thought Trinidad was small but apparently Texas is even smaller! Well needless to say, I just made a new friend. Yay me!
