Update:
My goodness it’s finally friday. This quiet Reading week is over :D I’m officially a graduate of Introductory AutoCAD! I want a diploma, dammit! I wanna learn FormZ now. Anyways, I have no idea when I’ll get to apply my knowledge— that’s is if I rememeber what I’ve learned. The instructor was pretty good, very patient with us. Though I did rant to my Academic Advisor / Boss the “Architectural” nature and bias of his classes and the next day, she addressed the complaint (annonymously). She’s a pretty cool lady: she’s like my mom. (Aww, I miss my mom.) They *do* care about their students. :D
Nothing else to report. It’s been pleasantly quiet. I like indeed. I’ve been a lot happier the past few days. The weather has been so good. The warmness makes me really happy— soon, just soon, we will be wearing t-shirts and tanks again! woo! skin makes me happy. lol

Here we go,
So yes, banks are retarded. When I was ten, my dad decided to open a bank account for me at TD so I can learn the value of money through my ‘red pockets’. Anyways, there was no more than like $100 in that account, and I remember lending like $70 to my sister for her (ugly) prom dress. Anyways, I later then worked at McDicks, and they forced all employees to get a CIBC account which brought me here to date.
Anyways, I get a notice from TD saying that I have a “dormant account” and you will be charged. The balance in my account was $4.26. If I do my math correctly: ($100 - 70 - 4.26 = @ $25.74) they charge me about 25 bucks (How many lottery tickets is that?).
What the hell? First of all, I’m giving you money (for quite a long period), and you’re charging me? What the fuck? I’m sure you’ve been wisely using my miniscule amount money into investments. To put it into perspective: I am PAYING for them to keep my money for them to invest and make more money. Perhaps I’m a retarded planner, but this doesn’t make sense to me. I need to get my hands on starting a new bank and jump on the bandwagon to charge customers for having banks keep money. Hmmm. LeeBank, I like, I like. Who wants in?
I ended up closing that account and of course with the TD-Canada Trust merger, my TD branch at Brimley/Steeles have closed and I had to trek all the way to Pacific Mall to do it. Argh. I get there, and they say that they can’t find my file, and then they explain to me that the merging of branch locations has caused a lot of confusion. I’m like, you’re a bank, there better not be confusion. Besides, I don’t care— who decided to close my branch? Geez!
So yes, banks are officially on my evil list. DIE DIE!
i'm tired, hungover, and i have a headache
