*cries tears of happiness* (TT____TT)  
Yesterday I bought my McGill University textbooks for two classes with totaled to an amount of 300$

I had my last class from 4:35PM to 5:55PM (my day consisted 11:35AM to 5:55PM) so it would be understandable to be really tired for the last class. Since it was the first day back from winter vacation and by the time I left school it was cold and all dark outside...

As I was drawing nearer to my house... I slowly realized and it dawned on me that I left my textbooks that were worth 300$ at McGill... And this wasn't in my locker, but outside of my classroom (Leacock 132)... A place where any student could have taken them and re-sold them or could have used them for themselves (since Leacock 132 classroom can fit something like 600+ students) causing me to have to re-purchase my expensive textbooks.

So I was completely depressed last night and was angry at how stupid I was for forgetting my books... I frantically left a message for that classroom's message board hoping that someone would reply with good news (but I wasn't expecting much since people are not really altruistic people...)

But NO! There was a reply!! Someone was nice enough (from my classroom too!) to have put the books at the lost and found!! (TT____TT) She could have sold the books and made at least 180$ profit, or saved herself 300$ by using my books instead of buying them...

So now, I have to do some extremely nice deed to someone in order to return the favor (yaay for karma!!) And I have placed my textbooks in my school bag where I can't lose them since I always lug around a school bag (I don't use shopping bags since if I hold something in my hand, I'm bound to lose them... Like I did with my books)

*cries tears of happiness and joy* I too shall try to be like Kanzaki Nao (from the Japanese drama, Liar Game)

You're so lucky! And that person is really really nice. Congratulations on your luckiness and should say thanks hundreds of times to her XDDD If you are like Kanzaki Nao, everyone will love you ^.^

I did!! Many times at that too!!

Perhaps it's a good thing that I don't meet the altruistic person in person... It would consist of me tackle glomping the poor girl in the snow (yaay for winter!). If not that, I'd probably be thanking her so much to the point where she may become annoyed with me and never help anyone ever again. But the truth of the matter is, I'm ecstatic!! >W<

If I was Kanzaki Nao, it would be a love-hate relationship with the world! But yes, I'd like to adopt her attitude, but only to a certain degree <3
