Sorry I haven't been posting in awhile, busy busy with midterms and all, had my Japanese Midterms Monday and Tuesday, a verb conjugation quiz on wednesday, and a Kanji quiz today. Overwhelming? Yes, yes it is, but believe me, this is a cake walk compared to what's to come.
My dad called me earlier, and somehow, we have an $8000+ phone bill! Somehow in the past two weeks (since sept 14) I've use 3000 hours of phone time! I really don't understand how that's possible. On top of that some calls have been made/received while I've been in class! You might be asking 1 of 2 things:
1. "WTF? why is he calling people in class?!"
2. "Something isn't right here!"
If you're thinking 1, then you're terribly mistaken, I don't call or answer my phone in class, in fact most of the time it either doesn't ring or is on silent, some times even off!
If you're leaning toward 2 or some other random though along the lines of it, then you're right, something IS wrong, terribly wrong! Some calls have been made/received from places I didn't even know people from, and others, as I said, were made/recieved at times when I just wouldn't be doing it. Another possibility might be someone using my cell phone, which my dad was sure to yell at me about, but guess what, I go to a rich school where most people have cars worth more then my entire collection of worldly possesions, so they have their fancy-smancy cell phones! I don't let anyone use mine, and sure as heck haven't since I got here. I have hardly EVER left my cell phone in my dorm either, and I'm pretty sure that the couple (as in yes probably only around 2 occasions) the door has been locked, or my roomate has been here, and I'm pretty sure he would notice someone using my cel phone for an hour and a half that wasn't me! On top of that, I would've come back to class and caught the person of god's sake.
Some of these calls just make no sense, and, along with that, I think the cell phone company is doing something wierd. Since I got to D.C., my plan has been switched to not have roaming charges, well, that was about halfway through the billing period, and I lost all my roll-over minutes! Well, at the time before the plan was changed, I had a HUGE amount of rolled over minutes, as I hardly ever used my cell phone back at home. My guess is they are charging us as if I never had those minutes, and over used my minutes as if I was running off the standard amount.
I know this was really long but it's a really big issue, and my dad is on the phone with the cell phone company trying to convince them that there HAS to be something wrong here!
