Well, life works in strange and mysterious ways. Today there was a fantastic discovery. I'll begin at the begining.

When I was about 8 or 9 (about 10 years ago), I was in Camp By the Sea. We took a trip to Great Adventure one day. Now, I had a great friend at that camp. He name was Liz. She was hyper and funny, and we were great friends. We had our picture taken in front of an old car and in frontof a building, with a bunch of peers. After camp I never saw her again...or so I thought.

In my freshman year of high school I met a girl named Lis. She was weird, she was funny, she could get really hyper. She and I have been friends since then. We realized that we both knew Leah. Lis knew her from camp, and I knew Leah from school.

Now, 2 days from college, Lis sends me an e-mail with a picture in it. This picture had a group of 9 year old girls in front of a building...one of them was me.

I gasped. I rushed to my photo album and found the pictures from the Camp By the Sea trip. And there was Lis(z) and I, our 9 year old selves standing in front of an old car. She had changed so much, I didn't even realize it was her. I showed my Mom the picture and asked her to guess who it was. She couldn't figure it out.

Lis and I have not known each other 4 years...but 10. We just fell out of touch for 6 of them, only to be rejoined in high school. And this isn't even a movie.
