Wednesday. The day I last blogged. I went to work. I got the most terrible migraine that I have had yet. It was so bad that I had to actually call my boyfriend to come to work and drive me back to campus, because I couldn't drive. It was pretty awful. Well, on to the more exciting happenings.
I got up the next morning, feeling pretty damn amazing (i slept for...like...9 hours) and went to lab. After lab I was supposed to meet with my academic advisor in order to finalize my schedule for this coming up semester. Well, while I was waiting to meet from her, I get a call from a restricted number on my cellular device.
..."Is this Amanda?"
"Yes?"
"This is so-and-so from the Berea Police Department. We found a purse and an apron with some stuff from Lone Star in it?"
"Yes...That is my stuff. I must have kicked it out of my car last...."
"No, ma'am. I think someone went through your car. We found these items on Beech St. (about a half a block away from where my car was parked).
This is where my heart literally skipped a beat. I found my advisor and told her what had happened and she said she would take care of my academic issues.
I went to go meet with the officer. Turns out, my car had been left unlocked (my wonderful boyfriend left it unlocked the night before. He was so worried about me because I was crying from the pain of my migraine)
Whoever entered my car took a bunch of stuff: my cd case, my winter coat, my 35mm camera, my phone charger, my work apron, an empty purse, my Garmin...
However, once on Beech, they decided that everything except the phone charger and the Garmin wasn't worth keeping and just ditched it.
(I am very insulted that my CD collection isn't worth stealing)
Even though I was upset that someone invaded my privacy, I was more than thankful that more damage wasn't done. Everything that the thief took is replaceable. And that is what matters.
And I am more than thankful that my boyfriend took care of me Wednesday night. I honestly dont know what I would have done without him.
Anyway, Thursday night, after all of this, someone was robbed at gunpoint very near where this happened with my car. I chose this college because of its small town, community atmosphere. I didn't think I would have to deal with crime so much.
My faith in humanity has been significantly lowered.
