I did my bachelors in the US. I had that person that I had one class with in my freshman year, but never really talked to. Our interaction was limited to awkwardly white man smiling at each other when we walked by each other occasionally.
I graduate, move to London for my master’s. My new uni is pretty elitist, top college usually reserved for a very narrow range of professionals, I have no idea how I got there. It was pure randomness.
As I leave my first day orientation, I walk by that same f***ing guy in the hallway. And all we do is white people awkward smile at each other.
