Nags



Ouch. Here I am, in the new temporary apartment that we are renting, for who knows how long, holding my laptop in the air in an attempt to get a signal to a wireless connection somewhere in the distance. It has internet (albeit VERY slow) but you gotta do what you gotta do. I'm at the moment holding the laptop on my knee, which is taking a toll on my back, so I should make this quick. :P

House hunting is quite the amount of work, it's really stressing out my parents, but we continue praying and hoping God closes and opens doors as he sees fit. Hopefully we can get all this resolved quickly enough...

A little off topic, I woke up today to the sound of some birds screeching (or a child, I don't know) and a guy screaming, because he's selling stuff. There are a bunch of beggars around here and it is extremely annoying. Thing is, you can't trust anyone as my mom's friend has already given stories of how she gave money to a dude who was asking for money for a trip or something, months later, he's still there asking for the samething. There are also the ones that are just ANNOYING. A little boy, STRUTTING ok, all arrogantly in his jeans and bright red hat and shirt goes up and asks my mom for money. The heck? What for? You could see the pride oozing out of his face as he walked by, staring at his reflection on the store windows. My goodness, I wanted to whack him with the water bottle I was holding. Fortunately for him, I didn't. But people here really are so unashamed about asking for money, it sickens me.

Another thing that I've seen around here are children with the wheels on the shoe. Remember that came out a couple years ago? It seems it only started catching on in the past year, and over here I'd say more than 50% of kids in the mall have em. OMG, so many little people rolling around, doing that lean-back kick thing to glide on their heels. You just wanna trip em and be all like, "You have FEET, USE them like a normal person!" -.- Geez, they even have velcro add-on wheels for those unfortunate kids with regular shoes, who want to be all "cool" like the others. And these have LIGHTS too! >_<

Anyway, on a happier note, I beat the Super Excite mode on Excite Truck, and now unlocked Mirror mode. :P Whoopee...

Here, I leave you with these 2 pictures of a sunset...
