As for more adventure, I got pick-pockted yesterday and lost my entire wallet! I was in a store with my roommate, Jill, then we went to the supermarket, where I realized I didn't have my wallet! We ended up going back to the first store we were in because I had remembered having my wallet in that store. We didn't find it anywhere there, and the cashier said that no one had turned anything in. Then when I thought about if there had been anyone around me while we were in line. I remembered that there had been two women behind me that had been acting like they wanted to get in front of me in line, so I moved next to Jill because I wasn't actually in line to buy anything. Then one of the women was on my said and the other one was right behind me, and I mean right next to my back, and was short enough that she was the perfect height to grab something out of my purse. I thought the woman behind me was trying to see things on the counter because she kept poking her head right between Jill and me, and was kind of bumping into me at the same time. I would have moved out of her way, but the woman next to me was close enough that I would have stepped on her feet if I had stepped back or over at all. Anyway, once I remembered all of that I realized that the woman behind must have reached into my purse and taken my wallet out. it was really frustration just because thinking back, the two women were obviously working together, and that was obviously what was happening, but I didn't think too much of it at the time. Needless to say, it was yet another experience that I've learned from.
I also got shut in a subway door the other day when it too full to get on. My friend and I were trying to get on the subway, of course it was rush hour, and there was hardly any room. I figured that if the doors hit me when they were closing they would pop back open, but of course they didn't, and my arm and leg were squeezed in between the two doors trying to shut, while my friend was still on the platform not knowing what to do. Luckily someone behind me got the doors open and my friend and I both got on.
It's just on thing after another here, but I'm loving it! I'm also excited to come home, and it's only three weeks away! I can't wait to hopefully see most of you when I come home, and I hope the fall is going well for everyone.
