randomness making my day

Sometimes, a small random gesture or action can really make your day. Today, I got 2.

The first one was chatting with an old friend. Not any old friend, but a friend who I use to be close with. We kinda did not keep in touch for quite a while, perhaps slightly more than 2 years. Or was it 3? I forget, but you get the picture on when was the last time we traded gossips. It took facebook to reconnect us, when we could easily go over to each other's house, or call up. What we will not do, in life, keeps on surprising me.
We chatted online for most part of the high afternoon, until both of us had to go for lunch. It felt like old times, trading updates and sharing gossips. After all, it was so long since we spoke and so much had transpired in our lives in between. That brief session was certainly not enough, and I'm pretty sure that a meeting will be in the lineup very soon. Once she gets back here and while i'm still back in my hometown. Happily looking forward to it, and to re-start the friendship anew. Thanks for looking me up, ?.().|.3.N.3.

The second happened just now. Getting a respond to my email, when I least expect so, from none other than my most efficient lecturer. Perhaps, I should use the insert the word former in between of efficient and lecturer, since I now only have to concentrate on finishing up the assignments. Seeing her name in the new mails list was really a surprise. I didn't think that she answer my queries, since of course, I could just get them from her notes. She's really one of those lecturers whom you would be thankful to get.
Just two days ago, I submitted an assignment for her checking in the afternoon. I had expected to get back the checked assignment after the Raya, since she is a muslim. But no. She had checked and mail it to me by late evening! It was really a motivating moment for me, for I'm still waiting for the response to another assignment submitted to another lecturer more than a month earlier. So, getting the respond to this latest submission just hours after slogging over it, was really, really a motivating thing. It made my day, that day. And getting the respond from her today, was really a good feeling. She really is one heck of a responsible and efficient lady. Way to go, N.^.N.!.3!!

I'm not going to wait for the third. Right now, just want to stay happy and motivated.
