A Story of Fate

So just when everything was going wrong and I thought I had to give up moving away everything turned around.

The first thing that happened was My car broke down forcing me to do the only thing I could which is to get another one. I now have to make a large payment each month for the following four years.  This really cut into my budget and completely erased the $300 a month I had planned to save in order to move in November. 

Then I could not find anybody who seriously wanted to move with me.  The cost of living is higher where I plan to move so it is essential that I have a roommate in order to keep costs within my budget.  Plus I don't want to move 4 states away all alone.

A week before school started up I decided to go.  so I quickly re enrolled.  My employer pays tuition to me if I pass the class.  So  I am going to save that money towards moving which will be around $3,000.  Then since I am not moving until February I will also have my tax money which should be around $2,000.  That solves the financial aspect of it.

Now here is where the real fate comes into play.  I posted an ad on Craigslist in the city and state I am planning on moving to.  I wrote how I was from out of state (didn't list which state) told a little about my self, my ideal living situation, and what I was looking for.  Well I received a few responses from people who lived in the area who were looking to rent rooms.  But I didn't reply to any since they were not what I was really looking for.  Well a few weeks went by and I figured I would try again at a later date closer to move time.  But then I get an email from a girl who says she has been trying to move there for a year but none of her friends will go with her and she does not want to go alone.  she tells me about herself. and I am drawn in from the very start.  We are the same age, we both have a pet, we like similar things......and get THIS.....  It turns out she lives less then an hour away from me.  How crazy is that???????
