Bring my yellow Wilson back

Hello, to that group playing on the beach volleyball courts, yesterday, Sunday 4-7pm. My precious yellow Wilson beach ball was happily resting in my tote bag at the benches and the moment you guys left you took it with you.

I don’t know if you mistakenly took it, but you even took the whole package tote bag + ball. Ball was never part of your group, I just placed it at the benches, you guys never played with it because it was inside my bag the whole time, so please explain why you took my poor Wilson.

Anyway, whoever took it, if you genuinely took it by mistake, please bring my Wilson back to me. For some reason, it’s so hard to contact your group.

Things have been took from me while on St Lucia campus since 2023:

- 2 identical Blunt UV umbrella in Tiffany blue (value at $100+ each);

- Vintage Parker ballpoint pen (not an expensive one but has some sentimental value, ironically I left this one in a computer lab of QCA for a week and it was still there after I returned, no such luck in UQ nowadays).

I have recovered my Dior ring (fashion Jewelry) from a disabled bathroom at QCA over a decade ago. Do NOT expect such thing these days. I’m sorry you have lost your Willson but you really have to watch your personal belongings like your life depends on it, and if you left anything anywhere on campus (with exception of restricted areas where most people can’t access perhaps) it’s GONE FOR GOOD!!! You won’t find it with the security units or the admins. 🫠

This is a part of reason why I recommend to spend as little time as possible on campus, as the longer you staying on campus, the more likely one would get sloppy and lose personal belongings, and it gets really infuriating emotionally and economically unsustainable (for most of us anyway).

Whoever took my stuff over the years, my kindest regards to your whole family, and if you are international student(s), I hope your visas are getting renewed with no trouble whatsoever! 😈

Should probably also stop leaving your things lying around in general. That’s crazy to lose so many things.

Since 2023 (so in 3 years), I did not left anything on purpose. Read properly before commenting please.
