This Troper has been hit by positive LaserGuidedKarma twice. First, as a pretty shy and awkward person she had trouble making friends, and after several months of trying and failing to socialize with others, she eventually decided to give up trying to make friends and accept the fact she was a loner. That evening she went out to eat at her favorite diner by herself and ran into a group of people she knew, who promptly invited her to sit at their table. Needless to say, she had a great time, and it was a nice sign that
she was not as alone as she thought she was. The second time was at the end of a stressful day, when she was worried about her dreams of becoming a filmmaker and wrote a lengthy diatribe in her journal about how she just wanted some validation of her talent and to know she could be a good writer.
Literally the second she finished writing that, she got an email congratulating her, saying her script had been accepted by a production class and would be turned into a short film.
