One of my happiest moments in my life so far is reconnecting an acquaintance from high school (who I had a crush on).
Back in those days we were both extremely shy but, my brother's friend helped me out. He got her cell phone number for me. When she did call she said she wanted to talk through email since her parents were overprotective of her. We had a few exchanges then all of a sudden she stopped writing me. It was quite disheartening realizing she didn't write back and she has recurred in my thoughts and dreams from time to time.
However, this year I vowed to change whatever made me unhappy. Then, I had a dream about re-meeting her. The next morning I said, "you know what I am tired of this just being a dream and I want it to actually happen so found her on Facebook and sent her a message. She did replied and that made my day.
From that point on we started emailing each other and viewing each other's art at Deviant Art. We became friends with these exchanges something I would have never would have imagined that would happen. We have yet to meet in person, considering she is still somewhat shy and so am I.
However, my drive to see her again helps me stand up to my social fears a little.
