Some people are just great...

As you know, my computer was recently stolen from a bus while I was on my way to Tennessee. The short version of the story is that I was on my way to see my friend Sarah. It's like a 20-hour bus trip. A couple of hours before I was to arrive we stopped at a McDonald's. I got off to get some food and when I got back my computer had been taken out of my bag by one of the other passengers. Unfortunately, we were already moving by the time I realized it and he had gotten off. A couple of people actually saw him take it but they thought it was his stuff. I talked to the driver and filed a police report and everything, but there's only so much that can be done.

It's hard. Many of you understand that, as someone who's been moving around a lot, your whole life gets to be on your computer...in emails, music, addresses, and not least of all for me, school. Fortunately, I didn't lose too much school-wise, but I did lose quite a bit, so that's been a pretty big adjustment.

In spite of all of this, I've been very blessed. Sarah's parents felt awful about what happened and they actually paid a percentage of what I needed to get a new computer, and my grandmother, who has been sending me a little bit of money each month advanced me some of that so I was able to buy a new computer already. I am now the proud owner of a black MacBook. I wish that I didn't have to get it under these circumstances, but I was planning on getting one this fall anyway.

Anyway, thanks for your prayers and everything. I have an exam in my Statistics class tomorrow, and it's an open book/computer test, so I had everything I needed for that on my computer, and I'm terrified of failing it now. And I was already terrified of failing the class. So we'll see how that goes.

Yeah, so just wanted to give the update.

Oh! And give me your blog addresses because I lost all of them!
