Six degrees of separation
Do you believe in six degrees of separation? I do. Six degrees of separation basically means that we are all only 6 persons away from each other. I remember watching a TV programme on the BBC some years ago about a journalist who was trying to find someone through six degrees of separation. If I remember correctly, in the end she succeeded. It's a bit like Friendster, where you can meet friends of a friend up to three degrees.The reason why I suddenly think about six degrees of separation is because I'll be meeting my primary classmates this Sunday - one who used to be in the same p.m. class as me (I haven't seen her since I left Hong Kong and moved to the UK back in 1987), the other is a friend (from a.m. class) of my p.m. classmates. It's going to be my fourth time meeting primary classmates in London. It kinds of feel weird meeting old classmates in London and not in Hong Kong. I found out today my old classmate attended the same University as me and she knows some of my friends, this lead me to think about six degrees of separation.
The world is very small indeed.
