It's strange how I end up getting so many friends. I must just look like a friendly induvidual because people will just walk up to me some times and introduce themselves. It's just so funny how that sort of thing always happens to me.
I was just out taking a walk and this girl whom I am constantly seeing but never knew rode past me on her bike and then we just ended up talking. I just made a new accointance right there.
Weather I'm at the park, or the beach, or the water park or whatever people seem to come to me and want to be friends.
What's really strange though is when some one comes up and know who you are but you've never met them in your life! Now that is just weird. That happened to me this summer as well.
I came to the home schooler's Ultimate Frisbee night for the first time and as soon as I walk on to the field where we play, this guy walks up to me and says "Hi Sarah, glad you could make it!". Then I'm just standing there staring at the guy thinking, "Ok, I've never met you. How the heck do you know my name!?" So then as I'm trying to figure out if I knew him from some where and just forgot, he realizes that the two of us have never actually met and explains to me that he saw me in presentation night (the home school talent show). And well, we've been friends ever since.
Really, it can be pretty fun. Well, unless the person you meet turns out to be a real pain once you get to know them. That's happened before too. But most of the time the people I meet turn out to be a lot of fun...
Could this be considered a talent or something? Haha, I don't know! lol. But I like it.

Thats really neat. People tend to do that with me too, although they like to pour out there life story on me. And most of the time they don't even introduce themselves! I stand there looking at them "Um. . ." what do you say to that? I realized after a while that it is a good opportunity to witness to people and now I'm going to take every advantage of that.
Well, I do see how people just want to be friends with you. I felt that way when I first met you. :) You can use it to witness to people too! Take advantage of that!
lol. for me, friends just happen to me. we never can remember how we become friends or anything like that. it's just kind of like a landslide, I think.
like, at music camp this year somehow I never realized I'd made a really good friend until we're sitting there talking and laughing and being dorky and her sister comes and sits and watches us for a while and then asks:
"did you two know each other before camp?"
we were very puzzled but realized we hadn't.
also I always end up with people related to be in one shape or another. it's odd.
Sarah, you're smiley and friendly. I know the only reason I really know you is because you volunteered to make race cars with me even though it was about the dorkiest thing in the world. now wonder people want to be your friend!
rotfl this is about the loveliest conversation I've run into ever! "friends just happen to me" HAHAHAHAHA Anna I could barely breath when I read that!! that is the perfect way to describe relationships, they just "happen" to us. lol that was marvelous Anna. pure genius. ;)
Sarah, that's just plane cool! I think that's happened to me before, but they're mostly guys so I have to *cough* show them the door... or find it myself. lol anyways! that had nothing to do with what we're talking about. ugh I hate getting side tracked. except when I'm cleaning... hehe
I love your blog Sarah cause you're not JUST posting a poem or two, or writing strangeness (like me) you're writing your journal for all to see! I think that's a pretty awesome thing. I wish I could do that. I'm afraid mine wouldn't be nearly as interesting though. :) ;) :D
Well, thank you for the lovely comments, people =)
I agree, Anna, they just kind of...Happen! It's funny how it all works out, but oh so wonderful.
And I didn't realize my life was so interesting...I guess it just doesn't seem that way because until some one points it out it's just...life. Just what it's like. But I must agree now that I think of it, because I think you're right! Ah, yes, my extreme optimism's coming out again ;)
And you have a very good point there, Lucy. It is a great witnessing opertunity...I'm just not very good at it. I'm used to all my friends I already have being Christian and so I never think of the fact until everything's all said and done and I'm heading back home. I need to think of some ways that I can do it and be good at it and get people to think. Hm. Something more that I really should remember.
