iPod. iMiss you.

So the other day on my to Mindo I think my iPod got stolen. When I got on the bus, some guys (that appeared to be working for the bus) took my backpack and put it overhead. I didn't think too much of it because it was only two seats behind me overhead. If someone wanted to get into it, I would surely hear them, right? So I sat down in my seat with an open ear...

After about 30 minutes I started thinking, "I remember Mari Paz or Augusto telling me that sometimes people on the bus act like workers and take people's bags. Then when they aren't looking or thinking, they steal their stuff." So I decided it would best to put my bag at my feet. So I did. With my backpack and 2 more hours to go to Mindo, I decided I wanted to listen to some good Reggaeton songs I had downloaded from the computer.

Songs like this one:

However when I reached into my backpack, my iPod was gone. And I know I had it in my bag, the night before. I turned to see if those "bus helpers" were looking at my suspiciously or even using my iPod. However, they were no longer on the bus. They had gotten off on a previous stop. It made me sad to think I could no longer listen to my music or practice my reggaeton sing-a-long.

If you have seen my iPod, it looks like this...


Yes, its light blue. Don't make fun of it. Your iPod would be light blue too if you got it for free. Pastor Erik once made fun of me for it "Is that your sister's iPod?!" And I replied "Well... sort of." My original iPod was my sister's old iPod she never used. It was worse than light blue.
It was this...

Yes, hot pink... She never used it, and I refuse to buy something new if I can get it used. So I decided I would use her pink one... just never in public. After about a month of using it, a friend of mine said she would switch her light blue one for my hot pink one. I figured light blue is a little bit closer to Manly than hot pink on the Color Spectrum of Masculinity. And that's how I came to own my iPod.

Now its gone... and I guess I need to buy (actually buy) a more manly iPod.
