Another Downer

When I came home from school today, I went to make myself a late lunch (steamed spinage and chocolate milk). Only two of my other housemates were home, and they left for class while I was just finishing up in the kitchen and on my way upstairs to my room. We think the robbers somehow came in as they were leaving. While I was upstairs in the shower, two or more men broke into our house and went into the two downstairs bedrooms that were unlocked. They got four laptops, four cameras (two DSLRs), a ton of rand, and a hair straightener. I can't believe how lucky I am that they didn't come upstairs/I didn't go downstairs. I keep thinking, what if? what if? The police said how lucky I am, that many people who were in identical situations did not fare so well. It really shook me up. I miss home.

  1. I'm glad that you're safe! I hope the police gets the stuff back to you guys. My friend who left her stuff in an apartment in New Haven came back to find that someone had stolen most of her things and also probably lived in her house for a while before taking off with her stuff and a $2000 check. But, the cops caught him and got their stuff back, which she didn't expect...now because of the ordeal, the Dean put her and her suite mates up in a pretty nice mansion on campus.
