500 Days of Sammy - Day 06
A Stranger: You meet a new person everyday. Whether it's while checking out at the grocery store, going to a party, or even just seeing an attractive person walking by, you notice someone new each day. One stranger that I will probably never forget is Martin from Knotts Berry Farm. For my friend Mallory's sweet sixteen we spent a day there, and met the friendliest people. All the workers were welcoming and helpful. We met Martin when I decided it would be fun to try his game booth and make him guess my weight. Lucky for me, I look like I weigh a lot less than I actually do, so I got a Patrick Star stuffed animal. All Martin knows about me is how much I weight, that I swim, and I am strangely obsessed with Spongebob, and we were able to talk for 4 hours. It's amazing what unique connections people can have while making small talk. Martin is no stranger anymore; he's 20, hoping to be engaged soon, and lives on Mulberry Avenue. It's hard to believe how big your first impression of a stranger can be.
