Identity Theft...

Ok so a couple things have happened since my last entry, but not too much..

First, I received a package from the Teeple's =) That was very exciting, although I went through a lot to get it. On Monday night Randall gave me the slip to go and pick it up so on Wednesday I asked my 'team leader' (aka boss) if I could leave a few minutes early to go and pick it up because the post office closes at 5:30 and I get off work at 5 and by the time I walked down stairs and on the other side of the mall and then to the bus stop I wouldn't make it in time. So anyway he let me leave 10 minute early. Well I got downstairs and when I left the mall it was pouring down rain and of course I never remember my umbrella even though it rains almost every day...so I walked to the bus stop- its probably a good two or three blocks away and I just barely missed the signal to cross the road so I had to wait- in the rain. So while I was waiting I saw my bus drive by and then it stopped in traffic. So I was getting really anxious to cross and then the light changed, just as the bus started moving. So I started running (in high heel wedge sandals that lace around my ankles) to catch the bus. So I wave him down and he stops and the I have to run along side the bus in the little drainoff area, full of water- it was so gross. Well I got on and made it to the post office ok, got the package and walked outside only to see one of my buses pulling away (normally id wait for the next one, but not in the rain) So I wave him down while holding on to the box from the Teeple's and then run and jump on the bus. Well he wasn't about to wait for me to sit down so I'm standing there trying to dig out my money and I couldn't hold on to anything cause I had the box in one hand and the other hand in my pocket, so I was getting tossed all over the place and almost fell twice- I can only imagine what all the other people on the bus were thinking...anyway, so I got home and opened it and it was tons of gum, twizzlers and oreos! yayThe only thing that couldve been better is if the Oreos were double stuf, but you know what, I like the regular one alot too...So thank you Teeple family- and thank you Amanda for the Costa Rican stationary...

Heres a picture of the goods:

So Thursday I went to a store on my lunch break to buy some stuff and when I went to pay for it my card didn't work. So I asked the man to try again because I knew there was money on it. He did it again and it didn't work. I went directly to the ATM but my card didn't work there either. So I just forgot about it. When I got home I had two text messages from my mom saying I had suspicious activity on my card and then one saying someone had stolen my information and been using it. So I went online to check my statement and it said I had -$500 available (it was only at $300 some when my mom looked a couple hours before) So I talked to my mom who was talking to the bank and we've worked it out, the card is invalid now- which kindof sucks because that means I can't use it for anything and I have to rely on my last paycheck to last me until I get the new card. But that may end up being difficult because I have a PO Box and no physical address. So we'll see how that all goes, I'll send in the affidavit of fraud, and after that just wait I guess.





This is me being sad about my card. This is also me with my hair down (something I haven't done in a couple weeks)

Monday starts the next bimestre for UNELA (woo hoo) I'll be teaching from the green book again, the more advanced students. I just hope this time they've been placed in the right level so we can actually cover the material and they don't all fail. My Saturday class from last bimestre was so good! Almost everyone ended with an A, I was so proud.

Last night I finally saw Pirates of the Caribbean. I did like it, it was long, but good. I think the reason it seemed so long was because we went to the 10:40 showing. So is there gonna be a fourth one?

PS Amber has a new cell phone the number is 001-506-395-7969...her phone is just as cool as mine.
