Ok, the world is small. Even the Pe-world. As a lot know, both me and skam live in norway. And norway isn’t that big, but big enough. She lives in the far north, I live in the far south. And today, we found out we was childhood friends!
Story goes like this:
I met skam on blink (norwegian chat-community) for about one and a half year. We talked some on msn, and she tried to convince me to play pe. As my economy didn’t allow it back then, I didn’t and we lost contact.
Then I started playing pe. And Skams hamster died, so I visited her profile on blink, and saw a familiar face. We talked about it, and she did actually have me on msn still. Coincident I thought.
Present day:
During the VU release, I throw a joke at skam for her being a same (ethnic norwegian people). She say no, she’s from tofte. I fastly reply “Hey, that’s me”. Then I remember, I’ve never mentioned it to her. so I start asking some questions. And yes, we both lived in the same place. The place, Tofte, has about 2000 inhabitants, so I thought maybe I knew some of her family.
It looked dark. I could familiarize any of her relatives. So I got hold of my mom, who still lives there. And she had stories to tell! Skam’s mom (or stepmom, not quite sure of the correct people yet) used to babysit me when I was young, and skam was still a baby
And skams dad was a good friend of my stepfather. My stepfather even drove skam to the airport when she moved away.
Now skam has just found out that her mom has pictures of some of our old dogs. I’m so lucking forward to her looking through the photoalbums and see what she finds.
Yes, the world is small. Two people, from a population of 2000 meets 20 years later. it’s a mad world.
