On Thursday , 22nd August this year I journaled in my diary that I felt down and wished I’d gone to a certain school which happened to be 150 miles away from where I grew up - different city in a completely different UK region. My own school was terrible. I wrote in my diary that I was bitter about my background and if I’d gone to the school 150 miles away - I’d met someone on holiday who went there - I feel I’d have been much happier in life. I named the school SPECIFICALLY on my diary - it’s the first time in my life I wrote down that I wished I’d gone to a specific school.
3 days later - Sunday, August 25th - I’m on holiday at a B & B and I completely randomly meet someone who went to the school I wanted to go to. We had a convo and this info unfolded during the course of the convo. The B & B was 300 miles away from my ‘dream’ school - a COMPLETELY different region of the UK.
At no point did I give the person a ‘heads up’ that I ever wanted to go to the school or knew anyone who’d been there and I was on my own having a convo with them so no ‘friend’ could’ve leaked it.
so in a nutshell -
I write in my diary I wanted go to a specific school - first time in my life I’ve done this - and 3 days later I completely randomly meet someone who went to said school 300 miles away from said school..
I mean of ALL the schools literally in the UK!! And given we’re the same age we would’ve been at the school at the same time.
AIBU to think it’s freaky ?
thanks for reading if you’ve made it this far
