Free ride on the police car
Sometimes, i would joke with my friends when i see a police car zoom by.
If you want a free ride in the police car, pretend to be lost and hitchhike.
Well, i got one. Not because i'm lost.
But i was robbed last night. on april's fool.
YES robbed it's not a joke. It was traumatizing, really. seriously, being in a police car is NOT FUN. AT ALL.
i realised if you're in a police car, it means you are either the victim or the suspect, and neither are desirable.
I was doing my assignment, using my laptop in mcdonald's at admiralty place. suddenly, this indian man in his 30s (feel like cursing him but i shall refrain) outside mcdonald's started gesturing to me nonsensically. being too nice (which was my pitfall), i turned my head towards him and tried to figure out what he was trying to say. and that was when his accomplice striked. he snatched my handphone which was beside my laptop and on the table and scooted off.
URGH!!!!!!
I tried to run after him but i remembered, my laptop is still in mcdonald's! what if that indian guy went in to take my laptop? So i went back and borrowed a patron's hp to call the police. i was dumbfounded and just broke down into tears. i felt so helpless and weak.
i was shaken to the core. come on, it's the first crime that's committed against me, right before my eyes!
i knew the 2 of them were in cahoots cos some patrons saw them together, walking around mcdonald's, staring at me. i couldn't see them cos my back was against the crowd.
sickening.
minutes later (which felt like a million years),the police came and i managed to get sarah to come down to mcdonald's. though i was the unfortunate victim, we felt like teenage delinquints as the police officers escorted us to the car. many people were looking at us. it seems so strange.
i mean, whenever there's police officers around, people would be curious to look on, wouldnt they? so i can't blame them.
thank God my mom didn't blame me whatsoever, which made me feel a lot more better.
i am not mourning the loss of hp.
just afraid that they may use the pictures i have inside, doctor them and post it online in some disgusting websites. really must pray hard! well, bless those people who stole my hp. let them have it but please, don't do anything to the pictures!
anyway, i am now officially contact-less. so please, do message me if you see this blog entry and give me your numbers. don't try to call me too cos i'm not getting my sim card back until wednesday.
my comfort for today: a B+ for my screwed-up presentation (the class average was B-/B). hmm not bad, considering it was the presentation where my tongue tripped :P
What to expect from here
