My Spring Break was a complete and utter waste. So instead of depressingly reflecting back on that sad time, I will instead choose to reflect on Spring Break 2 years ago, when my family and I visited China. It was the complete package, filled of excitement, despair, drama, and plain happy memories. It all started when we left Calgary for Vancouver. It was a perfectly smooth flight and journey until we landed in B.C. That's when things started to get chaotic. When we landed, we could not find our gate for our connection to Hong Kong, and if that was bad, things were about to get way worse. After the hard struggle to find our gate, we finally sat there for the next hour and a half until the plane was ready for boarding. Finally we were ready to board. Then, panic ensued. I had just realized that my phone was missing. Trying to remain calm (which failed miserably), I started ripping through my hand-carry and triple-checking my pockets to find where my phone was. I had just broken my phone's screen a month back, and losing it now would give my parents the impression that I shouldn't have one. What was more concerning to me, was what had happened to my phone, who has it, and what would they plan on doing with it (for example, stealing personal information). Arriving in Hong Kong, I was quick to send in a lost-items report to the Vancouver Airport Authority which proved unsuccessful. What made matters worse, is that my parents and sister believed that I had lost my phone as opposed to someone stealing it from my possession, and they thought I may have dropped it in the last flight and it may have been thrown away by accident. That is until we got back from our vacation, and I received an awkward notification from Facebook regarding a sign-in attempt to my account from an address in Surrey, B.C. Personally, I wanted to report it to the police, as Facebook provided me with the exact address and location of where the sign-in was attempted from, but after already getting the new iPhone 5- of which I currently have, I decided it was better to avoid all the trouble and to let it go. And that capped off how my Spring Break started and ended.
