I’m out of my mind, i don’t know where to start. But i’ll try to recap what happened to me today. I was happy this afternoon, I was with my Mom and cousin Haze went to inquire to a parlor for a hair rebond price. See, I don’t trust parlors around here…i got my hair rebonded last January 2007 in Cagayan de Oro City, sadly it turned out bad *sigh* maybe I’m just unlucky like that coz when i washed my hair after three days, it went back to my normal hair like it hasn’t been re-bonded(>.<). I thought it was a total waste of money but my cousin told me to check out this one parlor around here so i don’t have to go to CDO, plus i thought i could save more. When we got there it was cheap that I then decided to try it. My mom and Haze just went home coz it will take 6 hours to get it done. After about almost 6 hours, while the last touches was almost done I messaged my cousin using my phone through ym just to tell my mom to come over but it got done after a while that I decided not to wait and went home by myself. I  rode a trisikad…

(a three wheel bicycle, a means of transportation in most cities in the philippines aside from motorela and jeep but we dont have jeeps here coz Gingoog City is a small city) after the trisikad crossed the highway down the road to where i live, i saw a couple of guys where sitting at the first corner around the neighborhood. I was looking at them wondering from all the drum noises, i thought there was a parade or something but turned out they were only practicing for their drum and bugle corp. After that i just felt someone grabbed my phone on the side, I was caught unaware, but these two guys they were motorbike and the other guy grabbed my phone. I tried to hold on to it and pulling it back but they guy was strong, they got away fast. The only thing that was left was my phone holder. Those guys at the corner saw it too, one guy throw stones at the those evil guys on the motorbike, but too late. At first when that one guy grabbed my phone i thought it was a friend pulling a prank on me but it wasn’t. I didn’t even got a chance to see their faces or even the plate number of the motorbike. The sikad driver stopped while i was in total shock, scared and shaking from the whole ordeal. I don’t know what to think but in my mind i was screaming for my phone. Those guys in the neighborhood were asking me if i was ok and what kind of phone was it, I told them i’m ok but still in shock. Nothing i could do but told the trisikad driver to send me home and also thanked the guys in the neighborhood for their concern.

I got home all sad and told my family the news. They were shocked as well but they said good thing nothing happened bad to me. Those snatchers would kill for a single phone!

My pictures are all there since i got it from my sissy last year as a present for my birthday. All the videos of my niece’s that i haven’t uploaded on the computer, my phone applications, mp3’s *Sigh*. I would be suffering from a withdrawal syndrome over my phone, it was my mini laptop, mp3 player and my camera rolled into one. I’m usually careful with my phone when i’m out especially hearing from all those cases of stolen or snatched phones. I’ve already lost a phone before. Maybe i was overjoyed with my newly rebonded hair that the safety of my phone went out of my head :(( but I’m still thankful at least I’m alive and all OK.

Good news though, ate Seiko offered me a gift. At least my sadness was short lived. I promise i will be very very careful this time. Thank you soooo much ate Seiko and Ate Raquel for comforting me even though we’re far apart but you two are close to my heart aside from my family and relatives. I have the utmost gratitude of the kindness you have shown me.

Hmm the thought of sleeping and waking up without my phone troubles me a lot. I hope i get through this.

Bye phone,

Good night everyone. God Bless ya’ll and Be Safe always!
