First of all, i live in Bolivia, and original stuff is expensive.
Ok well i have this friend. I don't like him very much becaue he always follows me around (i'm the loner in my school) and people always make jokes about us going out and whistling when they see us together.  The only solution i could come up with is just act cold towards him because I feel as if he's just follows me because he feels sorry for me and stuff.... Well, like 2 weeks ago, i borrowed 2 CDs from him, but the thing is that i lost one of them (or it got stolen  ) and i've been telling him that i forget it alot, then, i told him it got stuck in my CD player that needs electricity to eject, but now it's just a matter of time before he finds out. The good thing is that i have 3 weeks to find out what to do (because it's winter vacation here in bolivia) I WOULD buy him a new CD, but i don't have enough money to do anything. His CD was an original from the US, and here it would be like $15-20 US, but for me that's really expensive  because $1 US = 7.90 bs$ so that's anywhere between 118.5 bs$ and 158 bs$!!!Should i tell him and try to buy the original or should i buy a copy that looks like the original?? (if one even exists!!!  )

You should stage a military coup, overthrow the government, and declare communism so everyone can share their CDs.

wow. that sucks really bad. i think you should tell him the truth. but also, save up your money for as long as you can. like... ALOT!!! so you can help pay for at least some of the expense. also, i think you should really do your best to look for it. GOOD LUCK!!!

if your bro's in the US, then he could probably buy metorora for 5-10 dollars and send it over.
and tell him no matter what. he probably likes you anyways. if he's still around you, making efforts to be your friend, and you've been cold to him? |

You should tell him the truth now. It's better than having him find out the truth himself.
And about the money value... I totally feel you girl. USD1 equals to RM3.80. Prices of original CDs are crazy! But I think he should understand. You could offer to buy a new one for him when you collect enough money. |
