Day 38: Wednesday, February 24, 2011

I wanted to make this a separate post because I didn't want to spoil such an awesome journal entry!  On the way back from the fashion shows, I caught someone stealing my wallet out of my purse IN THE ACT!  It was a super crowded metro and I was wearing my long, black crossbody purse.  As I was getting off, I felt a tug on my purse.  I immediately turned around and grabbed it, checked inside, and sure enough...my wallet was gone.  I looked up and saw this man right next to me, looking off into the distance, like he was trying to avoid eye contact.  I screamed at him and he started to walk off.  He was wearing a crossbody bag too, so I yanked it from behind and started yelling at him to give it back.  He started yelling back, so I just opened his bag and started searching for it.  After a couple seconds, a woman pointed to my wallet on the ground a few feet beside the man.  I guess when I started chasing him he threw it aside.  I know for a fact he took it though, because the wallet was 10 feet in front of where I was when I realized it was gone, so there was so way it fell out of my buttoned purse.  I was so happy I found it.  It had everything in it!  Both my credit cards, 50E in cash, my school ID, my metro pass, my license!  That would have been such a s bummer.  But I got back it back and that pick-pocketer failed for the day!
