uuggh...annoying!!

This week annoying things keep happening or i myself am annoyed at something.
The week started off good, and everything was just like normal.
Then on Wednesday and Thursday Pip stayed home from work, witch is fine but is just a little bit awkward. Either telling her kids what todo in front of her, or like on Wed  i was just hanging out Skyping with people (while girls were at school) and she was just there. Just a little awkward but i guess ill get used to it. Then on that Wed afternoon when i went to get the girls from school it was just dumping rain..and i had to walk in it :(  not fun!  So that was annoying.
 Then on Fri night i got invited to 2 different things but earlier in the week Adam and Pip asked if i could babysit while they go to a movie, and i told them it would be fine. Then when i got those invites i was all annoyed cause i wanted to get out of the house and do something.  Adam kept saying how i should invite my friends over and watch a movie and that he would put some bubbly in the fridge for us. But everyone already had plans, also its hard for me to want to invite them because if i was them i would rather hang out at my house then some random peoples. lol 
Anyway so then Sat i went out in service and this was the first Sat of doing the Convention tract work, so i got to do that, and when i thought about it it had been my 4th time doing it. (1st) Pheonix (2nd) Whenatchee's(3rd) Omak's (4th) Australia.
But i like doing it so it makes going out in service way easier and fun! Here though, if the person is not home then you just put it in their mail box. If there mail box says "No Junk Mail"  then you get an envelope and put there address on it and away you go. So we did that until noon and i had nothing else to do or anyone to go with so i  was gonna go out in the afternoon but they don't meet up til 1 so the bro and his family i was working with insisted i come home with them and eat, witch was really nice. And then i stayed out until 3--3:30ish.
 After that i got dropped of with Rachael and we were gonna meet up with some people to go to the movies. It was the first time i had been to the movies here and its pretty much the same thing except....everything at the concessions is self served...and there is assigned seating.
We went and saw Captain America..witch was good except I was sitting in between Pradeep and his sister Prea....who were talking the whole time all loud. So annoying and the guy in front of me kept turning around and he was just as annoying.  But other then that good movie, then we saw the trailer for "The Avengers"  so then everyone went back to one of the girls house and we watched Iron Man.
Then Sunday morning i got to sleep in, witch was nice. I slept inn til about 9:30 and it was funny when i woke up Adam was like, "Your gonna be late for church!" lol   i was like ehh no I'm gonna go to the 1:30 one and he was all oh ok. But then i had all this time to do nothing, and they said they were having some people over for lunch so then i felt all awkward because i didn't want to be lingering around when they had friends over, so i got dressed and started to walk to The Towers. Thought i would get a coffee or just wander around the mall for awhile. By the time i got there my flats had giving me a blister the size of a quarter on my baby toe and the back of my foot was bleeding...sooo annoying!!  So then i was in pain and couldn't just walk around, so i went to the closest store and got some band-aids. They helped a little but it still hurt. By this time it was getting close to meeting so i walked to Sean and Elise's (special pioneers in our hall) who live like 2 blocks from The Towers, they were taking me to meeting this week.
 Meeting was good,i am still meeting Bro and Sis i haven't met before and I try to pay close attention to who is commenting because i don't remember half of any ones names. 
After meeting i went home with Rachel and helped her cook dinner for some friends that were coming over later. I think by the time i leave here..I'm gonna be a total Wine-o...everyone drinks wine like its beer here. So then we ate and watched a movie and then i got dropped off at home! :) 
Then today was good..except i go online and find out that my bank acct has been hacked or that someone took like $300 from me...that right there annoys me, then i cant get ahold of my bank through the international number..that's annoying. Then i try to call my mommy to help and she doesn't get back to me all day so i have to Skype Hannah....who then calls my parents...where my dad is completely confused and can barely hear me as i am yelling to the computer so he can hear me on the phone, and Hannah is just cracking up. So then finally like an hour later my mom gets online, before i tell her anything is like, "Some guy from your bank called this morning and said something about fraud, did you tell them your going to Australia??" Then I was a little annoyed just because i have been trying to get ahold of her all day and then she thinks this guys is calling cause i was dumb and didn't call my bank. But anyway she called and got it all figured out and they have to close my account and issue me a new card and i get my moolah back so everything is good..its just annoying all the hassle. 
So that's whats been going on this week, few other things that have been annoying;
  • That my microphone was on the wrong setting so when i was skyping with people they couldn't really hear me, but i fixed that so that's better. 
  • They don't have the same kind of candy.
  • Hulu and Netflix doesn't work here.
  • How freezing cold it is inside the house. 
  • How i have absolutely nothing todo after work, during the week.
  • How early the malls close.
  • How i wish i had ALL my clothes with me.
  • How i wish i had smaller feet so i could buy some new shoes, for walking.
  • That i haven't figured out how to do international calls on my cell phone, even though i should be able to.
  • I am annoyed at myself that i haven't been taking pictures.
The biggest thing of all that is gonna annoy me probably the whole time unless i do something about it...that i dont have a car!! :(  I hate it...absolutely hate it.  I dont think there is anything worse then that. If anything down here, that is gonna be the death of me!!  Just talking about it makes me upset.
For someone like me who has had a car since the day Ive gotten my licence, for someone who drives EVERYWHERE, who just this year has driven across country 3 times , to all the sudden be useless..have no freedom, have no say in where i want to go or what i want to see is the most horrible feeling.  Then on top of that have to depend on everyone else..make everyone go out of their way to help me, makes me not want to do anything, makes me just sit home and do nothing all week. It is sooo freaking annoying. 
Anyway enough of me venting..my Aussie words for the week:
  • Knickers = Underwear
  • Rubbish = Garbage
  • Pram = Stroller
  • Lolly = Candy
  • Biscuit = Cracker
  • Crisp = Chip
  • Petrol Station = Gas station
  • Plaster = Band Aid
  • Zed = Z
Lets hope next week will be better!
