Coincidence, random or fate.

In my final year as an undergraduate student at the University of East Anglia, I built up good relationships with many of my lecturers. After meeting an economics lecturer for the first time during her office opening hours outside of seminars, I decided to thank her the next day by personally giving her a book she’d be interested in. She then decided to recommend me to use the website ‘reddit’ making a specific reference to the Pokemon page she has under her favourites (which I deemed quite peculiar for a 26 year old lecturer talking to an undergraduate). Little did she know that a friend and I were throwing a Pokemon themed party four days later which had been arranged many weeks in advance. I then continued the conversation asking her half-heartedly if she wanted to come. She never did. This was also the same person whose car needed fixing at the same time as mine - discovered during a phone call whilst sitting in her office; to which she paid using the same cooperative current account as I, and whom I saw pulling out of a side road in-front of me, whilst driving a different way to normal to the centre of Norwich after choosing not to email her that morning.
