What Just Happened...

Do you ever have those days where everything is just great? The sun is shining, it is positively beautiful outside, and you have not a care in the world, and nothing could change that. You trip, fall, and get knocked down, but you persevere and get right back up. For me today was one of those days. Until something extremely peculiar happened in one of my lecture classes. 

 Being in a good mood always makes me friendlier, and act more positively towards others. Usually I am the quietest person in the room and tend to keep to myself, but when I am feeling good, I like to meet new people and just have a good time. So, my friend and I started introducing ourselves to the people around us, and started to have casual conversations (about music, favorite shows, etc;). At this point we had been talking to this guy (who we will just call "C"), and brought up the subject of our favorite songs. At this point things started to get really weird. "C" told us his favorite song was "O. Lover", by Jason Mraz. When we told him that we had never heard the song before, he proceeded to sing it out loud...and started to dance. In my opinion, that is not something that one does if they are trying to have a casual conversation with people they have just met. It was quite frankly the strangest thing that has ever happened, until...

 Later in the class, we heard our names being whispered (quite loudly) from across the room. When we turned to find out where the whispers were coming from, and found "C". He was standing right behind our chairs, got really close, and asked in a really quite voice, "Would you like some lotion?". He then proceeded to pull out a bottle of lotion from his pocket. WHAT! WHO CARRIES AROUND A BOTTLE OF LOTION AND OFFERS IT TO PEOPLE THAT THEY JUST MET. If the singing and dancing wasn't bad enough, he had to add this incident to the list of strangest things that have happened to me. What are some peculiar things that have happened to you?

Hey There!

Hello world! I thought since I was starting a blog, I thought the perfect post to start it off, would be to introduce myself to you! My name is Christine, and I am an enthusiastic nerd and admirer of all things cute. I live, and was born and raised in the good ol' state of Texas. I have a HUGE family, whom I love very much, and a crazy, stick-legged chihuahua. I love the rain, reading a good book, and listening to music. I am afraid of falling, but eager to jump right in.
