Stolen Laundry

Well kids, be sure to obey the sign in the laundry area warning you not to leave your laundry unattended. I was sadly once a naïve optimist. I thought no one would ever actually take your laundry, especially if you are only gone for ten minutes. I had successfully done my laundry on the second floor multiple times without it being swiped away, but unfortunately the second floor was all taken up, so I had to use the laundry room on the third floor. This turned out to be one of the worst decisions I have made during my time at Texas State thus far. My laundry was stolen by some pathetic lowlife, but fortunately she didn't take it all. She had the decency to leave all of the free oversized Texas State T-shirts I had, but ran off with all of my active compression pants, all of my jogging shorts, all of my khaki shorts, my favorite Run DMC shirt, one of my bras, and a pair of panties. I honestly don't understand how people could be so awful. I understand that people can't always afford to buy nice clothing for themselves, but to take it from an individual that worked hard, earned money and purchased their own is just shameful. I'm am not fortunate enough to just be able to call mommy and daddy and say hey please send me more money for clothes. No, I have to work for everything I have and for it to just be taken from me is infuriating. I hope my clothing made this person happy and she gets good use out of it. What I got out of this situation is learning the lesson that you just cannot trust people these days.

  1. That's so horrible! My roommate keeps coming back up to the room while she's waiting for her laundry and I keep warning her that somebody might steal it but she doesn't think anyone will.
