A combo of coincidences

Hi everyone,

Last summer my friend invited me to go to New York in the end of October. A few weeks later my other friend said that if I ever go there I can stay at his place.
I few days ago I got another offer to go there, also in the end of October, for this show and to meet some people in the music industry. Three in one sounded to good to deny. Then I realized my passport just expired and that I had to get some new pictures for the new one.
Last weekend when I was at the grand opening for Cime Beauty House (great place btw), I had a good conversation with Martina, who reminded me that I should send in a song for the Eurovision. I had completely forgotten about it.
I realized I didn't have any ready songs I could pull out of the sleeve and thought how great it would be if I would happen to find someone who had a song but no artist.
So today when I went take my passport pictures I happened to bump into a songwriter I met a couple of years ago.
The first thing he said when he saw me was:  "I've been thinking about you the last two days, I'm writing a song for the Eurovision but I don't have an artist". The other funny coincidence is that the songwriting session takes place in Vaasa 4 hours away by train which is where I'm going next weekend for a conference. What a great combo!

Cheers,

Jessica
