Ditto, little kid.

So. Today. During my 5th period. My iPod was stolen from my desk.

I don't know who it was, but I know when it was. I stepped out to use the restroom for 2 minutes. This isn't usually a big deal because in the afternoons there is another teacher in the room.

The thief must have slipped it in his pocket while the other teacher was helping another student.

Unfortunately I don't think there's any recourse. There were abut 15 students in the room, it could have been any one of them. You can't pull them all out of class and search them. Of course if you asked any of them, they'd deny it up and down.

Ah well. it's a test of my buddhist zen like skills of letting go. Suprisingly it hasn't affected me a lot, there's nothing I can do y'know?
