Holy Cow! I just lost my beloved Nokia 6300 on our way home from the supermarket last night. It was picked from my pocket while we were riding a jeep.

Actually, the phone was attached to a lanyard which in turn was tied to my belt buckle (yes I’m careful with that phone). But when we got off the jeep, I noticed the lanyard hanging from my pants with the other end frayed. Arrrgh!

I really love that phone!! It has good speakers, microSD slot, USB connection, nice screen resolution, slim form and sturdy build. It was the perfect phone for me!!

I’m just so unlucky with phones. Wanna know the bad history between mobile phones and me?

Bosch 607

First phone back in college which my father bought me. Fell off from my pocket and left in a taxi.

Nokia 6310i

I replaced my Bosch with this one which I bought with my own money. Left it again in a taxi going to gf’s place (my wife now).

Nokia 6610

The following day, I went to Globe and got this phone discounted from loyalty rewards. Eventually, I Iost it inside a bus where it was picked from my pocket.

Nokia 6610i

Got the same model but with camera from Bidshot. It was picked from my pocket again in broad daylight while riding a jeep. However, I confronted the group and got a chipped tooth, black eye and a bruised ego in return. Nice!

6300

This is the most recent casualty which is a gift from my wife I even attached it to my belt buckle to avoid having it picked. I’m sure gonna miss this phone and I hope whoever gets it will take good care of it.

Grrr. I hate building up my contact list again. I also have to call NTC and report my IMEI number to have it blocked.

Next time I may need to carry a purse to store my phone. Hahaha.

Oh well, time to exercise positive thinking. So what should I be thankful for?

• It’s not my wallet that got stolen
• We didn’t get hurt in the process
• My pants was not damaged
• I was able to post something interesting today
• Wife gets to have an idea on what to get me for birthday

Hmmm, how about an iPhone next time or maybe an Omnia? Hehehe.
