I’m feeling a lot better today - Yesterday was just a really down day for me. Partly because my brother, who told me he’d come and visit me, changed his mind, claiming he didn’t want to waste his Birthday money. Fair enough, but still, he shouldn’t have gotten my hopes up :( I’m much better now though - I managed to sleep the emo-ness off.

Overall, though, this weekend has been an absolute crock of shit. The weather has been terrible both days, and whenever I’ve gone to do something, my plans have fallen through. James said that we could see a movie on Saturday evening, but he seemed to have forgotten and somewhat ignored me when I suggested that we go and see one. I spent most of Saturday night in James’s room, alone, because he was too busy on his computer with his brother and brother’s friend down the other end of the house. I didn’t even get a chance to see Vicki in her ball dress when she got back from her ball, because I fell asleep before hand. :(

Then, more dramas today - I had work, and so needed to get back from James’s place. James dropped me at the train station, only for me to find that the trains had been replaced by busses for half of the trip - and because I don’t know the area the bus was going to stop at, I freaked out and begged James to drive me back home. James wasn’t in the least happy, and was quiet throughout the trip. It rained terribly the entire trip, and at times was so torrential that I was petrified we were going to have an accident. Of course, James is used to driving in the rain - It scares the shit out of me though, because It hasn’t rained in Sydney like that for a long time, and i’ve never driven (personally) in heavy rain. Hopefully I get used to it, because it rains a lot in the winter here in Auckland.

James has since told me that he was okay driving me into town today because he knew that I’d freak out at the unknown area and get all paranoid. So that makes me feel better.

Work was pretty quiet in the end. Hiroshi, a guy I work with on Sundays, and I spent most of the evening looking up Chuck Norris jokes. It kept us entertained, considering we had maybe a total of 10 customers. Psh, boring!

I’m off to Sydney tomorrow to visit my family and friends. Should be good. I miss them heaps, but at the same time, I love it so much here in Auckland, and I really don’t want to leave, even for a minute.

anyway, off to bed for me. :)

PS: Check out my new flickr photos :):)

I’m having a really down day.

The worst part is that nobody around me seems to care. I’m so lonely, and no matter how many hints I drop, he just doesn’t get it.

It never ceases to amaze me how quickly that rain starts and stops here in Auckland. A minute ago, I kid you not, there was blue sky outside my windows. Right now, it’s positively bucketting down, eerilly dark and grey. Chances are, the rain will stop in about five minutes. This weather makes me sad, really. I was looking foward to going and taking some pictures today.

On another note, my house is all lovely and clean! Everything is spotless; I did about four loads of laundry yesterday, changed the bedsheets, vaccuumed, mopped…! All I need to do now is get a mop and a window cleaner for the balcony, and everything will be nice and sexy.

Oh, look at that. The rain stopped.

Yep, cleaning my apartment. Finally. i’ve vaccuumed and mopped my hardwood and done some general tidy up - as soon as my floor is dry (OMFG HURRY UP PLEASE.) I’ll be doing some more tidying, wiping down surfaces, cleaning the bathroom… Ew. The toilet. Oh well, it needs to be done, and it’s not like I could convince James to do any of it. I mean, asking him to take the recycling down to the recycling bins is a habit. I store the bottles under the cupboard, and yet, when I ask him to take them down, he only takes the bottles on the TOP of the bench, ignoring the ones down the bottom. Psf.

Ugh, I wish my floor would hurry up and dry. I need to put more washing on, and finish cleaning, and do some ironing… and shower.. and I REALLY NEED TO PEE, but my floor is being a bitch and won’t dry quick enough.

(This was a sponsored pointless post.)

Just got back from work. I really do enjoy working - the people are just a heap of fun and nothing feels like a chore. It sure is tiring though: I get quite sore standing up for four or five hours at a time: my feet ache by the end of the night - it’s never too bad - it’s all fixed by the morning. I probably made hmm… $50ish tonight in the four hours that I did work. :)

The weather has been absolutely shit-box today. It’s been chillingly cold, raining, grey and windier than it’s been in a long time. Overall, it wasn’t really a day that I wanted to be out and about, but I didn’t really have a choice when it came to travelling home from James’ (where I spent the last few days.) I don’t mind catching the train - the trip is quite relaxing, however, the chill I got every time the doors opened wasn’t the nicest feeling ever. Oh well, not to worry, I’m all snuggly and warm at home now.

Ew, it dawned on me this afternoon just how long it’s been since I gave my apartment a thorough cleaning. Exams and study completely threw me about, and as a result I haven’t had a chance to do any mopping or vaccuuming since this time last month! Eeeewww… I’ll certainly be doing a decent clean tomorrow, because I just feel so icky in this dirty apartment. I might also go for a walk and take some photos if the weather’s cleaned up a bit.

It’s James’s Sister’s formal/prom/ball on Saturday night :D I get to do all her make up for her. Hoorayyy i am le-excited! She’s also going to be my photo-bitch and I’m going to take lots of pretty photos. Should be fun.
