Champs!
9:20 AM August 05, 2007

Woohoo! The seniors won! We're the Over-all Bacbacan champs! XD Not only does that mean glory for a couple of bright shining moments, as well as eliminating the possible shame of failing to be the only batch not to win overall champion in their senior year, it also means PLUS THIRTY points in my Accounting class!! Yeah~ And that's a lot of points. One of our teachers was so shocked at the 30 points, but she said she assumes it's cause we had a small chance at winning. Bah!

Plus, sometime during lunchtime, I received notice that my STOLEN WALLET was FOUND!! Thanks to the little innovation called: "writing a few cell numbers on scratch paper" - XD - Ate Nelia, the BA guard, was able to notify me and tell me to get the said wallet. Soo let's see, a Harry Potter book, 3 affidavits of loss complete with notary, a community tax certificate, and a couple of bucks later, I was able to retrieve my driver's license and all other important stuff in thought I lost forever. *tears of joy*

Learnings:
1. I'm ditching the big fat wallets for the meantime
2. keeping cellphone numbers in your wallet is apparently useful. XD
3. it's good to notify the people in authority asap
4. it's very costly to replace a missing driver's license, etc.
5. Keeping loved pictures in a wallet is not worth it
6. prayer works! XD

Well, as some of you might already know, I notified Ate Nelia (CBA guard) about the wallet within the hour it was stolen, and she was able to arrange a little network of searchers. ^_^; She notified the janitors to keep an eye out for a missing wallet, cause apparently, thieves ditch the wallet after grabbing the money, usually by throwing it in the trash. I almost had a heart attack, imagining the thief disposing of my wallet in obscure trash bins around the University. X_x But anyway, it took time, but the janitors eventually found the wallet in the 3rd flr men's C.R. Aha! So a guy stole the wallet. >_< style="font-style: italic;">veryone (even the UPCAT bldg administrator) knew that a girl named ******** lost her wallet. ^^ So when I got there, the bouncer lady said: "Ah! Ikaw si E******o!"

Not surprisingly, all the money was gone, but at least the wallet found it's way back to me. For those few wondering where Ate Nelia got your number, as I said, I had a scratch paper with the cell numbers of some of you in my wallet. I know it's risky to keep such numbers, since the thief could have texted my parents for more cash. fortunately, I didn't write "mom" and "dad" and instead wrote their names as it is saved in my phone. (initials nila. XD) I know it's a bit weird, but this has a back story to it that I think I might have mentioned 2-3 years ago. :p Nothing sinister, just more laziness and convenience. :P

And at least I didn't have to pay for a new license. I already did all the preparations (looked up replacement prices, wrote a letter to LTO, got a notarized affidavit of loss, etc.), but on the bright side, at least I know how to do such things now. :)
