It’s been almost a month since I last posted here; I’ve been busy with work and life. At work I’ve been trained as a projectionist which means that for 2 or 3 shifts a week I don’t have to shovel popcorn. I also applied at BSK Laboratories as a lab technician, I baked them a cake when I dropped off my resume and surprise surprise I got an interview and a new part time job. I will be working in the organics department 2 days a week cleaning glassware and prepping water samples, BSK tests drinking water for most of the central valley. I have school this spring on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 8am till 3pm, and Tuesday Thursday from 8am to 10am.
Tarra and I are doing great, over the past couple of months we’ve really grown a lot together, it’s scary sometimes because we’ll be thinking the same thing. I got her family gifts for Christmas, which they all seamed to enjoy.
I got fucked today by Wells Fargo, the computer said I had $200 to go shopping with, then after I spent $120 on gifts I had Negative $107.09, I was so mad and frustrated with the bank I called them up to complain and ask for my over draft fees back, they told me no. So I went into the bank branch and asked for my overdraft fees back or I was going to close my account, I showed them the computer print out showing my account as having money in it on the 24th then negative money on the 26th. The manager told me that it was my fault and that my print out meant nothing, so I closed my account of 15 years. Interesting side note 3 other people we’re there today closing their accounts as well, all 4 of us got fucked by Wells Fargo and were not happy about it, only more proof that I’m not crazy and that Wells Fargo is really just a horrible evil baby killing bank These changes are new at Wells Fargo, this happened to me in 2005 when their computers failed to update my spending, back then they refunded me without question, fast forward to 2007 and their policy has changed and as a result I no longer will bank with them.
I’m planning out my next 3 years of college, I’m looking to transfer to UC Berkley or UC Davis in a couple of years, once I find out what it is that I really want to do. I’m leaning towards Biology or Chemistry. I’ll see how well I do with the Bio and Chem classes at city. When I took Human Biology at city last semester I did really well, if I did the homework I would have gotten a B+. One thing I’m thinking about is how I might fare at a private school like University of San Francisco or something. I really want to go to a school where I can do undergrad research, that kind of thing really appeals to me. But also on the other hand I would like to go to a Catholic school, I think I would find a lot there. USF is one of the better schools in the country (Better then Fresno State or any other CSU school that’s for sure) but UC Berkley is the 6th best school in the country and as a native Californian I’m entitled to priority transfer and discount-tastic tuition. It’s something that’s a long ways away for me but I would like to have a vague idea where I’m going to I can plan myself accordingly.

I got fucked by them the same way, except it's actually is your fault for not better balancing your check book. I had made purchases that hadn't gone through yet, so when I checked, it said I had money, then I took it and the charges went through. for a $20 charge, I was out almost $200 in fees for overdraft and for having a negetive balance for like 3-4 days. Those fuckers didn't even call me.
Now I'm at EECU, they took the time to add this little thing that let's you know what's AVAILABLE, so you don't accidentally take too much. If I go over, I get a phone call, and email, and a letter in the mail.
