NOT a good day

Mondays always suck. Nothing you can do about that. I have early class on Mondays which makes it suck even more. But to day is especially bad.

I go out to start my car this morning, and someone during the night had broken into my car and stolen my bag. The bag is a leather laptop bag, but I dont have a laptop, so I just use it to carry around my schoolwork. Some stupid kid thought it would be fun to take ALL my school work and my disks containing all my major projects that are due this week. Now I have no books, no notes, and no projects. The bag was pretty nice too, entirely made of leather and only about a month old. STUPID kids thinking its fun to break into peoples cars and take their stuff.

ARG MONDAYS!!


(thanks for letting me rant)

That really bites... I know all too well how crappy it is to get up for an early class on a Monday morning, but to find your car broken into and your "schoolbag" stolen sucks rocks. I can't imagine having to replace my bag if it got lost or stolen with all my work in it, I would be fuming!!!

I think a good punishment for teens would be an enforced extra year in school, that would make them think twice about pulling a stupid stunt!

Good luck getting your schoolwork and books back together, I feel for you...

its things like this , little petty things, that make me lose even more faith in the human race. I'm very sorry. The main reason this monday sucks for me is because well we are expected to get a good 16 inches of snow today with 40 + mph winds. atleast I stocked up on Sterno and bought some water bottles . good luck. over and out.

Thanks all. I'm posting a reward note at the local grocery store around the corner form me. If I do get my stuff back I'll gladly give the whoever stole it in the first place a piece of my mind, and their reward will be that they did a good thing by returning it. No way I'm giving them money for stealing my stuff though, but the thought if a reward may lure them in, seeing as they have a bunch of notes on how type was developed during the 1500s.

On a brigher note my little baby cornsnake had her first good shed since I got her! She's been having troubles eating and shedding since I got her in November, and it finally looks like shes coming around

My (mom's) car got broken into the SAME night my cat was run over They took all of my favourite cd's, which were in the car because we were going on a drive the next day.....

Crap! that blows... my Dad's car was broken into while he went for a 1/2 hour walk with the dog at the park (Cuthbert Holmes, or something...) In 30minutes, they broke in a window, smashed his dashboard all up, and took his new $350 stereo system thing he had installed like a month ago... They also broke into another car... same thing. IDIOTS!

P.S. How do you know it was kids who did that? And Pixie, you do mean after they pulled a stunt, that they should get that punishment, don't you?

Sorry, I am 14, and I hate even REMOTELY ageist statements, even if it usually is "Kids"... Too biased!

Pretty sure it was kids. It was between 6 and 7 this morning, the time kids around here are going to school or waiting for buses etc. We're in a pretty well off area, so any adults who would want a laptop could buy 4 of them pretty easily, lol. That and they didnt take anything out of my garage thats worth anything to people, brand new lawn mower, snow blower, power washer, plus 2 cars. Had they been looking to make some money they could have done it easily, but kids seem to think more along the lines of electronics for stuff to steal, and since my bag looked like it had a laptop in it (i dont know who would leave a laptop in a car though) they thought it would be a quick way to make money.

Im getting up early to scope out the people who walk by my house tomorrow, see if any of them are carrying my benjamin moore's leather bag heh

You scope away and I REALLY hope that you find it!
*hugs* People are really inconsiderate...

Nouserpif (Dan): I hate ageist comments too! People can be mean to us kiddles (I'm 16) But you and me both know how mean all those OTHER kids can be! :P
