So, I am currently in Seattle, taking a quick break from looking over topics to write and relax before calling it a night and getting a solid sleep in before tomorrow.
Author's Note: I am in LOVE with Seattle. Like, I don't love the city. I am head over heels for the city. It's always everything I want it to be.
Back on topic.
My flights are generally either Mrs. Herr sitting by me making it interesting, or a 1-7+ hour ride of silence and watching as many movies as I can to kill the time.
Plot Twist
This flight I happened to sit down next to a complete stranger who was fun and nice to talk to and she made the initial moments of awkwardness cease to exist.
Enter party number 3, and you've got me sandwiched between two people who aren't afraid to be social. Which is good, because I can play off of that, even if I'm not the most social.
So, she mentions she's going home, and asks about us.
"Uh, I'm going to interview with Amazon."
"Really? Same! Friday afternoon?"
"Friday morning, Interviewing to be a recruiter."
"Awesome, I'm going for SWE."
Like, this couldn't have been scripted better.
Another fun fact, we both started the current jobs at the same time.
The conversation continued well past take off, and then we all settled in. I opted to study, and watch X-Men Apocalypse, even if it had moments it skipped (probably rating stuff), and that's a story for another day. <3 p="">
Once we got close to landing, we chatted more. And even came up with some inside jokes, such as IKEA branching out into every business. Hiking Gear, Cars, you name it.
It was a solid time, and one of the best plane rides I've had. Let's hope that it's a good omen.
Also, the lady who lives in Seattle, thought I was crazy for how much I loved Seattle with my limited experiences here. Haha.
Till next time. =D
