Huh.

It turns out that, prior to getting a credit card a couple weeks ago, I didn't have any credit history. [This is why I got a credit card]. I suppose at my age it would be good for me to have some credit, because I may, after all, have to get a car and house at some point.

But at least no one ever has to know about the period when I was in Japan, where I thought my dad was taking care of my credit card bill, and I put round-trip overseas tickets on my credit card, and I ended up with $2000 massively overdue on my credit card.

Unless I go back to Canada.

(But then, I'm not sure how things are in Canada anyway, with credit scores and credit reports are so on.)
