The Singing Stranger

First he was in the Science block, then he was outside a theatre in Arts, then he was in the Student Centre, and then back on the concourse outside Arts again. And it’s not even 6:30pm.

Except it wasn’t him at all.

I often find that no matter how topsy-turvy a day in my life might be, there’s always a single theme that binds around the day - the fact that I see people who look like someone else in my life, everywhere, throughout the day.

Today I saw someone who looks like a girl I used to work on Belfield FM with, five times. Yesterday I “saw” a former President of UCDSU four times. And it happens to me every day - people with their image just floating about, everywhere, on any one day.

I don’t know what to make of this unusual phenomenon; nor do I even know what to call it, but “Persistent lookalike-bumping-into” will probably be staying persistent enough in my life for a little while yet.
