<p><strong>6. (after meeting up with mike who kindly said he would come with me) University Centre I (at the 4th floor office)<br />
</strong>&#8220;hello id like to buy a semester pass&#8221;<br />
&#8220;thats fine, do you have cash on you?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;no..&#8221;<br />
&#8220;we only accept cash here. but if you go to the store downstairs they accept everyhing&#8221;<br />
<strong>7. University Centre II</strong><br />

&#8220;yes&#8221;<br />
&#8220;i have a cheque, is that ok?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;oh.. sorry we dont accept.&#8221;<br />
<em>*team mike huddle*<br />
mike: i can pay it on my card and you can sign the check to me since it is unsigned to anyone.<br />
priya: yah! ok!<br />
</em><br />
&#8220;i&#8217;ll buy the buspass on my card&#8221;<br />

&#8220;we can go to lincoln fields and get your pass since we have a few hours to kill before the bbq&#8221;<br />
&#8220;yah ok!&#8221;<br />
<strong>8. Lincoln Fields<br />

&#8220;yah im not waiting.&#8221;<br />
&#8220;ask at the store, they might sell them?&#8221;<br />
(turns out they only sell tickets)</p>
<p><em>*team mike re-huddle*<br />

priya: left it at home<br />
mike: we can go to a scotia bank and i cancash the cheque<br />
priya: ok! there is one at the uni i think<br />

</em><br />
(team mike ventures to merivale and meadowlands where there is a scotia bank. after a bit of waiting and complaining of being tired and hungry we get the money and return to carleton)</p>
<p><strong>9. University Centre III (store)<br />

<strong>*PAYS MONEY. GETS BUSPASS. SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <em>THANK YOU!</em>*</strong></p>
