Down in the dumps
That pretty much says it all.
I guess my luck's in a rut right now.
I thought losing my wallet was already bad.
Turns out my grades got pushed in the dumpster as well.
Lemme start from when my wallet got lost.
I lost it at the market.
I remember CLEARLY that I placed it really deep in my bag.
And then when I was paying at a shop, it was gone already.
The scary part?
I found a razor blade instead.
But there wasn't any slashed parts on my bag.
Okay, it's true I use razor blades a lot for making my assignments; mostly for cutting carton boards.
But if I carry one, the blade would always be in a handle, not naked or loose like how I found the one in my bag.
I'm not upset at losing the money in the wallet.
It's the cards I'm frustrated about.
That wallet of mine had my nationality ID card, student ID card, and ATM card. (Hope you're happy ya @^##@&^$^&@^*$^&@$^!!!!!!!!!!)
I'm working on replacing all of those now.
What makes it a hassle is that my nationality ID and ATM cards were made in another province.
And....I can't make a permanent replacement since I'm in a different island altogether...
The bank just made it more complicated.
I can't shut my account without a nationality ID, even after I showed them a 'lost item report letter' I made at the police station.
And seeing that my family resides in another island, I can't make a normal nationality ID that lasts 5 years.
I can only make one that's not only more expensive, it expires after just a year (but still legal).
To do that, I had to start with my student ID card.
I just returned the forms to the university's office, they said that it'll be done in a month.
I heard making the other ID takes about two weeks, if the documents get through quickly.
So for the next month and a half...looks like I'll be living without an identity =P
I'm planning to make a normal ID card when I go home in June (that's about the only time I get to see my family, apart from Eid vacation).
Naturally, not having my wallet got me in a bit of a debt problem.
No worries, though...I'm working on paying them back.
Luckily someone else at my board has an account in the same bank, so that's where my parents will transfer the money to for the time being.
BUT...during the time when my wallet got stolen (I'm positive it was, since I haven't taken out that wallet out of my bag ever since I placed it in there again) I was preparing for my studio exam, which was worth a lot of credit. (5 actually, for an individual subject it's big. Minors are usually 2-3 credits, and general courses are usually 1).
My exam consisted of making a display and presenting it.
I'm not blaming my bad grade on the lack of budget, but I was thinking that if I still had my wallet at that time I'm sure it would have turned out better...at least with the display props.
Nobody's to blame here really, but me.
I'm sewing a pouch in all my bags to carry those cards once they're done.
At least...the next time my wallet's gone, there's a lesser chance of losing the cards.
I'm trying to cheer myself up, instead of being all emo (pathetic as it may sound).
Having mood swings haven't really helped...neither does knowing that even if I share this with someone they'll tell me it's my fault.
I KNOW it's my fault. I KNOW I can be really careless at times.
Having people tell me that only makes it worse, since I'm working on getting rid of that habit and it's like getting dirt shoved at my face.
I just hope this is the last time I have to deal with this kind of problem.
YOU CAN DO IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!
