Life is full of surprises
16.11.12
Yes,it is. Sometimes it is the good one,sometimes the bad one. Yesterday I got a very bad surprise. I lost my camera. It was stolen by some guys when I was taking pictures with my friends on the street and the thiefs ran away with motorcycle. I was shocked for a while and didn't know what to do. I was after them though but still couldn't get them caught or at least get my camera back.
When I got back home and told my parents about what happened, they were so angry. Of course they're angry,right? I'm not from a super wealthy family where camera is something that we could get easily like buying chips or popcorns. It needs money in quite a big amount. And I've lost my parents' trust too. I feel super extremely guilty until now. Still can't believe that my camera,our Hee Jun,is gone. Yes,we named it Hee Jun because we adore Han Hee Jun from American Idol last season so much. Silly,I know. But that's the way we feel the connection with the camera.
Well,for me now it seems like blogging will not be as easy as it used to be anymore. But hey...I won't give up! No! Blogging is just getting more challenging and all I need to do is doing some tricks so that this blog will keep growing up. I'll keep posting,of course,but I think my posts will not be as frequent as usual until I got a new camera. And I realize that I don't have any rights right now to ask for anything to my parents. Even for Christmas or birthday present *sigh* So yeah,I'm planning to work my ass off as hard as I can and wish I'll be lucky enough to get a new camera with my own effort.
After all,what's the point of all these?
1. Respect and preserve everything you've already have even if it's not from your own hard work.
2. Don't take pictures at a quiet street.
3. Always hang up the camera strap around your neck everytime you use your camera.
4. Be sensitive with the circumstances you're in. Don't be lulled with the ease you already feel.
5. You will not always be in your comfort zone. Bad guys do exist so you got to be careful wherever you are.
So that's all I can say to you. Thank you so much for giving your time to read this post and also for your understanding. I hope this post is telling enough about my situation right now and how hard it is for me too. Really need your support to make me going through this,guys. I do. And I believe something good is about to happen right now :)

Oh my goodness that's terrible...I'm really lucky that here in New York, if someone tries to steal something from you, someone always catches them within a few minutes. But that's really good advice. If I go out with my camera, I try my best to protect it. Tourists especially need to pay attention to this advice when they go to big cities, because they tend to get really careless.
ReplyDeleteHopefully you get it back, or have someone get a new one for you because yes they are very expensive unfortunately =(
DeleteI feel so sorry for you! I also got my camera stolen when I was travelling between Ecuador and Peru. I fell asleep on a bus and someone took it out of my bag... when I noticed it in the hostel, I felt so stupid and angry about myself... but worse than the camera in that moment was that I didn't have any photos from that trip.
ReplyDeleteSo... another tip: take out memory card when you're not using the camera and wear it somewhere close to your body.
I hope you'll be able to buy a new camera soon! I'll definitely miss your photos :)

yes i understand your feeling very well, i've been in your situation before, but the difference is i lost my phone. the phone i bought with my own money. it happened when i was in year 10. i cried for days eventhough my parent didn't get angry, but i just cried because i felt so irrespondsible. all thieves could go to hell, i guess hahahaha
ReplyDeleteAaaaw I feel so sorry you lost your camera. :( But I love your fighting spirit!
