hey! America!

So, I was standing out in front of tap ex last night with Rebecca, and I realized I only had $3 with me.  I casually asked Rebecca if she had a dollar on her, and some random girl was like "oh I do, here you go!," like some cavaliering do-gooder, and handed me a nice crisp one dollar bill.  In astonishment, I responded "um, are you sure?" as though her good intentions were to be questioned, but she remained adamant and said "yeah totally!" 

Though this had never happened before, (I mean, Americans are generally known as being nice, but not to the point where strangers randomly give you money every time you need it,) I thought this was fate poking me in the face and saying "hey, this place is a nice place to live too!"
