lost and found

today, i lost my handphone in RP's library. It was stolen. Then, i got it back again.

what happened was, me and darren, we were reading comics at the comics section, i took out my phone because i received an sms. then, darren said we should move into the xbox room to book seat. so we moved our belogings there, and i sat down to read my comic in the xbox room. a couple of pages later, i felt for my phone, but realised it was missing, so i ran back to my previous seat, which was less than 10 metres away. just a couple of minutes had passed (you know how fast i read), but my handphone was gone.

I immediatly borrowed my friend's phone to call my phone, but my number was unavailable. it could either mean the people who picked up my phone turned it off or removed my sim card. i was bloody furious. darren and i rushed down to the fcc to get the security to watch the tapes of the cameras, but the guy was like, "wait... fill in form first". i was saying frantically "EH, JUST LESS THAN 5 MINS AGO, CAN CHECK OR NOT??" and he went "wait.... fill in your form... see, student ID here..." so i was like, fine, i filled your bloody form, and then he took the form and nothing happened.

i went back to the xbox room depressed and furious at the same time. i was actually thinking about the different ways i could lay out my divine punishment to the assholes that take other's belongings.

fast forward to when i was going home. I called my dad and asked him to cut the line, cos handphone was stolen. he sounded bloody angry. then i was thinking of making a police report, so i went back to the fcc to check whether there was any news before i went to make my report.

suprisingly, there are actually people who care in our school. i went there, and they actually found the phone and returned it to me. i called my dad to ask him not to cancel the line but it was too late. but still can reactivate. then i asked the security guards where they found it, and they were like saying "A few boys founf it. they were actually trying to contact you..." and i was like "please. i know they tried to steal it. else why would they turn off my handphone. who are they?" and the security guard said "You don't need to know who they are. just know that disciplinary action would be taken." oh well, if they told me i would have snapped their heads off anyway, and i dont want to get into trouble.

The thing is, if you want to steal someone's handphone, at least make the effort to get out of the crime scene. why stay around the area? the security guard saw the video, then when looking for the boys, and apparently they weren't far off. Well, at least we know why they need to steal. cos they certainly can't depend on their brains for a livelihood.
