It's been some time since I have felt this horrid. It's hideous. So much so that it feels like it's just a prank; and that one day, my stolen-on-day-one-iphone will be returned to me at my doorstep.

But who the fuck am I kidding right. If a good Samaritan actually is holding on to my phone right now, good Samaritan wouldn't have ended all incoming calls to the phone. Wouldn't have taken out the SIM card and whatnot.

I do not have the money to just pop into an Apple store to get another iphone w/o contract. Now I'm freaking stuck with an expensive plan; which I cannot make full use of cos my old phone is on the verge of death.

So how exactly am I dealing with this?

I'm praying hard that my old phone still croaks through till when I finally start work.
Meanwhile, I'm trying my very best to forget this whole traumatic matter. When I think about this incident, I will just end up crying. :/

It's just a phone, you say. But that phone translates to quiet a sum of money and that phone was something that I happened to really need at the moment.

I am glad that my family took it well. I was expecting an earful from my mum and brothers. But no. My mum rubbed my tummy to soothe me instead when I just cried in front of her in the kitchen. My brothers gave me kind looks cos I think they realised what it took for me to finally get the phone. And to lose it on day one... it's a little cruel. And my sister and her bf got me a tub of Haagen Dazs Melon ice cream just so I wouldn't feel too sad.

And my friends, were damn awesome too. They tried their best to look for the phone once we realised it was not in my bag anymore. Even though they were all so tired from a full day of work and school. They even accompanied me to Starhub when I went there to suspend my line. And then online (cos I was then uncontactable otherwise) , I received so much love. It was touching, really. Huggs every single one of you! <3

Best thing was that I didn't have to wish for karma to befall the pickpocket. For my friends, brother and sister have already wished horrible, horrible fates for him/her. It's quite morbid and painful, if you ask me, and I think I can't put it up here. HAHAHA.

On hindsight, maybe I am not destined to be an Apple user. Cos if you remember, 5 years ago, my pink ipod mini died a tragic death only when it was 6 months old. And it wasn't even my fault. Sigh.

But I tell myself, heads up!
All is not lost. And money can always be earned.

With that, I shall try to stop guilt-tripping myself, and I shall stop with the what-ifs.

Tomorrow shall be a good day! And tomorrow, I shall give an awesome presentation in class! 8D

These honeys are cheering me on from somewhere under the sun, so I'll be fine! ^^
