Peplum top: J.Crew • Pencil skirt: Urban Outfitters • Boots: Footwork • Tights: Veritas • Earrings: H&M
The strangest thing happened today. When I was in high school my friends had a friend, a boy that was in their class but that I never met before our graduation year. When I got to know him better in our final year, he had already made plans to go abroad for a year (Bolivia) and I was preparing for college. I went to his goodbye-party and he came to my birthday drink and that’s basically all I remember. Our ways separated as soon as they had crossed.
And then this morning, I was sitting in the hallway waiting for my morning class to start, when out of the blue he was standing in front of me with a face probably almost as startled as my own. Disney learned us that it’s a small world (♫ after all ♪), but this my friends, was one of those moments that just kind of shakes your world a little bit. How coincidental can things be? Seeing an old friend again after 4 years felt really good! It was so nice to finally be able to talk to someone who had common friends and a (however short) common history. You might remember my posts from late September, when I just started at this new university? I was pretty upset about not having anyone to talk to and laugh with, and while I have managed to make friends quite well in the last two months, it was a very pleasant surprise to find out an old friend had actually enrolled in the same class I had! He barely attended the previous lectures and that’s how it’s taken so long for us to meet again, but after todays class we went to the cafeteria together and chatted about many mainly non-important things such as our travels, mutual friends and classes. He also promised me to help me out with an assignment I’m currently working on and that is taking up all of my spare time, so us meeting is already causing me many benefits, haha.
Okay. I have a really big analytic assignment that requires my attention for the rest of today, so I better get working on it again so I can hopefully finish my analytic coding today and can start my actual theory-constructing tomorrow (that’s the fun part!). I hope you guys had a lovely weekend, and that you didn’t go too much overboard with the Black Friday spending.
That is a crazy story. What is even crazier is that something similar happened to me over the weekend!
I love that lace top on you. It's so delicate and pretty!

Heel leuk truitje! ^^
Don't talk about assignments, it reminds me that I'm reading blogs instead of working on my presentation 🙁

En je was ook al de hele namiddag Glee aan het kijken!
Stop reading, stop tweeting and get studying! 😀
(Maar ik ken het fenomeen…)
Don’t confront me… (maar de presentatie is bijna af, wohoow!)
Hoera! Veel succes met presenteren! 😉 (als ik nog op tijd ben…)
Ooh altijd leuk om iemand na lange tijd terug te zien! 🙂 Succes met de taak!

Hooray for old friends!! I love that you are getting to talk with someone who has a common past (however short it may be). It is always nice to know someone when it seems you are all alone!
Those earrings are so perfect with your cute top! And yay for old friends that you actually want to run into! 🙂

I LOVE this outfit.
I LOVE this outfit.
This is so simple yet classy.
Also, what a fabulous coincidence to be able to run into an old friend like that!
Adorable! I love lace with a mix of tough black.

I love when thins like that happen! And of course, loving your outfit as well!
It really is a small word! I was halfway across the world in Israel when I ran into someone from high school! I've had two friends meet in Paris even though neither knew the other one was going to be there! It's crazy how life works! I'm glad you have a friend in your class now! Love the top!

ooh wat goed dat je iemand hebt voor in de les! ik weet hoe stom het kan zijn daar alleen te zitten (wij zijn allemaal niet de beste studenten als het naar de les gaan betreft, en dan zit er al eens gauw iemand alleen :p)
That is such a beautiful top! It looks great on you! 🙂 I'm glad you shared it on the blog 🙂
Awesome that you met your old friend too! And even better he can help with the assignment – so good when things work out like that 🙂

Oh, isn't it funny how we run into people from our past? I love when those little incidents happen, reminding us just how small this world really is! You are looking fabulous as always, I love that top. Good luck with your assignment 🙂

Leuke klassieke en simpele outfit. Heel elegant. Ook leuk om weer een oude vriend tegen te komen. Dat had ik ook ooit met een meisje bij wie ik in groep 3 zat.. en toen opeens zo'n 15-20 jaar later weer zag in de schoolbanken van onze opleiding toentertijd.

Making new friend's is great, but it's always better when you have someone around to talk about old times with. I've never really been a fan of the peplum, but this one is really cute! Love how you styled it 🙂
