Robbed

I finally found people to hang out with today, two really nice girls 2 years older than me who are trainees at the travel company I booked. I was going to meet them tonight, riding a Xich Lo when I was robbed of my backpack by two people on a motorbike.


Anyways I don't really want to explain the situation. I just want to gather the to-dos when robbed so that I can act more adequately next time. I swear next time they won't get away that easily.

1- Scream the shit out of yourself. And I really mean it. Gain attention of bystanders, maybe there's someone who can help.
2- While chasing them robbers, try to remember as much detail as possible - most importantly their vehicle registration plate.
3- If you travel by Xich Lo, make sure the Xich Lo guy doesn't escape. Mine disappeared as fast as he could. He's most certainly the robber's accomplice.
4- Don't rely on the police.


And some things I need to take note of:

1- Don't ever let loose of your bags in Vietnam.
2- Cut down on going around all on your own, especially at night. I mean I won't stop doing it completely, I know myself too well, but I'll try to cut down on it. T_T
3- Trust no one.


I'm pissed but I know the robbers are even more pissed because my backpack has nothing of value for them. I just hate that I lost my Sherlock Holmes book. I wasn't done reading! T_T But on the bright side, there's a first for everything, and my first time being robbed is a lucky case, considering that I lost nothing important.

My cam was in the backpack at first but then I took it out and held it in my hands. Poor thing was dropped when I got robbed and the battery fell out of the main housing. I was worried that was the kill but no, even though it has now even more scars (than after my sister dropped it on the streets last time), it still works. I love my cam. T_T

Nha Trang hates me. I think now it's kind of mutual.
