I miss my NIKON D3000

It's been two days since the incident and I thought I had gotten over the whole thing yesterday when I found out that home insurance is useless. I was merely disgusted by the fact that someone would have the thought of stealing from a bunch of poor students who are working their asses off day and night. That is so low, it is disgusting! Their is stealing from a store or bank and then there is from innocent victims. At least stores and banks are covered under insurance, they really have nothing to lose, WE LOST EVERYTHING. I was more upset about society than about my camera.

As I went through my empty drawers today, I felt quite emotional and upset about the incident. I found it hard to concentrate and started asking why question rhetorically. Why me? I just got the camera! It is still on its first ever charge though I've taken more than 600 images. Why are others luckier than I am? What did I do wrong to deserve this has gone through my head a few times. Is it my fault? Why didn't I bring it home for the weekend since I knew I wasn't going to go in Saturday? Why did I put BOTH my lenses in the same bag? I've tried checking on Ebay, UsedWinnipeg, UsedRegina, and Kijiji without luck though I knew the chances were slim from the beginning. Every time I think about taking a picture, I am reminded of the incident. Every time I open my empty drawer I am reminded about the incident. Every time I walk near my desk, images of strangers snipping off my hasp and finding a camera bag full of goodies flash in my head. I can see their grin.

I don't want to keep bringing up the incident and I don't want to sound annoying to anyone or seem like I just want attention. I am just really upset. I had thought about waiting for the next model or at least until school starts again before buying a new one. Now, I think I will get one as soon as I get a summer job. I may not get the other lens until a sale, FS has the 55-200 VR lens for $220 @ $80 off this week so it should come again. At least I can forget about losing my money and all after a few months but life without my DSLR I cannot take... Andrew practically lost his first MacBook Pro and he bought a new one. He doesn't bring up the fact that it is his second one and I buying a new one asap will be the only way to feel better. It's not like it is going to reappear if I wait long enough or I no longer have the need. I got into Master's, once you get an DSLR, there is not going back to crappy point and shoots.
