un-random musing *

i believe in no coincidence for the things that happen. i met a lady in her mid thirties on my way to the women equip conference this year. she asked for a direction to the darling harbour convention hall. so i asked if she perhaps was attending the conference, to which she said yes.

i meet her again several times now as i sometimes travel by bus to work. and so we mostly talk as the bus is travelling. she is an indo, has two kids, lives in eastwood, works in IT field in st. leonards, enjoy photography and soya-candles making, goes to ccc in milson pt.

there have been a few occasions where i bumped into a person whom i've never known properly at the first place, but somehow i get to know them because i keep meeting them at places. there have also been some things mentioned about (or things that occur, keywords that come out) to which i find them to be strange yet no coincidence as they happen in such repetitive manner.

any terms to describe this?

ps. at times, i feel there are certain type of people with whom i can talk with easily (click) because they are attentive at the first place. i find it rather frustrating that some conversations are just floating on the surface, without any proper subjects being raised or discussed, a little laughter here and there, and then things just puff up (and off course i don't mean that every convo has to be deep and meaningful, there are places for this as well, provided that you've known the person for a while). i enjoy talking in a small group though i myself am not very good at initiating one. i appreciate people who can talk 'properly' and with respect. i think a lot of this is due to the way we women relate by communicating ideas or issues as compared to men relate by doing something together.
