Car theft!

Nov 17, 2006 12:11

8:30am. My cell phone rang. I was having a good nightmare, so I ignored it and went back to sleep.

8:40am. Someone knocking at the door. The apartment manager. She began by apologizing for the bad news, then said something about 3 cars that have been (insert the verb here) at the garage. I'm still learning English, and I didn't understand that verb ( Read more... )

You're still learning English? How long have you been in the country? Just wondering...

5 years.

Your written English is better than mine and I was an English teacher in Japan. LOL!
I'm glad they only got your jacket!

Many thanks for the compliment! :-)

Wow, teaching in Japan sounds like a big adventure! How did you like it there?

Oh my. Thats awful. I do hope they catch whoever did this to you, if only for karma's sake.

I never realized that English wasn't your primary language. You write it so well. What is your native language?

I highly doubt that they'll catch the person. It's not like the police officer went out of his way to collect evidence... just the basic stuff. But karma always catches up, sooner or later.

Thank you! It's so good to hear that my English isn't so bad as I sometimes think it is. :-) My native language is Portuguese.
