I got a dose of reality today when I got my Columbia bill in the mail.

I also got a bill for phone service! You guys aren't kidding that it's expensive. They charged me for not even USING the phone! I called them up and explained how I'm not even on campus yet, and they issued me a credit. They told me that they accidentally did this with quite a few Columbia students, so if this happened to anyone else out there, you definitely should call them.
Bye, Merlin. Good luck at the big H!
