Mugged

Well. I'm sure most of you have heard by now through the grapevine that I got mugged on Friday night. I was walking home with Maricela, and as we were walking some guy came up behind us and tried to yank my purse of my arm, he struggled with me and couldn't get it and all the while I am screaming at him. Then he took out a knife and cut the straps of my purse and took off running down the street. I chased him as fast as I could but couldn't keep up so he got away. The worst part was that I was chasing him, SCREAMING at the top of my lungs and there were all these people around who just sat there and watched - doing nothing. Not even yelling at him to try to help me. Sad sad world. So he got no cash, but he got my little camera, my house keys, all my cards and ID. We got home and we started cancelling EVERYTHING, called the police and now tomorrow I have to get the locks changed because I don't feel safe at all. Anyway - there is a special spot for him in Hell but I'm sure he'll have the favor returned one day. Good news is, both of us are fine, everything is replaceable and actually usually the documentation gets returned once they realize there is no cash.

So we finished school - I did my presentation. Did I tell all this already? I have no idea - time is lost on me these days. It went okay, although there were some complaints about how the info was presented. Such is life. I know where I went wrong and will try to be better next time. Now it's just writing! After I get back from Italy with mom that is! Actually, I will work a bit while I am there. She arrives tomorrow and I'm going to pick her up.

In other news, my roomate Rafael lost his job on Friday so he is looking for a job AGAIN which is a bit stressful for the whole house really. The restaurant is closing for the summer so for 2 months at least he will be unemployed. I hope he finds something before we get back.

Annnnnnnd that's it for now! I promise I'll put up some photos soon :)
