And it's never seemed more golden and wonderful.

You see, 26 hours ago, I'd just seen a fireworks show and was drinking with a friend, talking about all the things I'll miss about Spain. 

Then today...my purse was snatched. My wallet, keys, phone...gone. 

I still have my passport, thank God, so I'll be able to board the plane on Thursday to go back to America. But I basically had to spend the afternoon shutting down my phone, my cards, freezing my bank accounts, and having my brother wire me money via western union. It's a complete shit-show, but on the bright side, they didn't nick my computer or passport - both of which are hella important - and neither my friend nor I were physically harmed. But it still feels so violating and scummy and I can't remember feeling this helpless and vulnerable since my dad died seven years ago. On the bright side, I have insurance on my phone, so I'll be getting a new one on Friday. I'll also be changing all my bank accounts and getting ready to move into a sweet apartment. So good things are on the horizon. This is just a shitty end to my year abroad. :(

Yeah...I'll be humming America the Beautiful when the plane lands in Chicago on Thursday afternoon.
