My Serendipity

Serendipity - the effect by which one accidentally stumbles upon something fortunate, especially while looking for something entirely unrelated.

I was on a semi-blind date. While waiting, I went to Dave n Busters and played the dancing game there. That's where I met her. I was only there for about 30 minutes before leaving. About 3 weeks later, I ran into her again in the same place.

My July 4th Story

July 4th has no meaning to me. I know that it's independence day, but I don't really relate to it because my independence day is June 12th in the Philippines. However, I understand why this day is important. It's the day the US was born and became a unified country. Knowing it's importance is good enough for me. My 4th of July story has nothing to do with the holiday, though.

There was an open invitation for the 4th of July cookout in Centennial Park from 9AM to 7PM. I initially planned to go. After hearing sad news from relatives in the Philippines, I hesitated and thought I shouldn't go. I don't know what made me change my mind a few hours later. I decided to go.
