The most annoying day ever.

Having the house and car to myself has been pretty sweet for the past week, with my parents in Europe and my sister in the Caribbean. However, things have been unexpectedly popping up to annoy the crap out of me.

1. The endless amount of laundry. I did three loads this week and there's still a basketfull. My grandma was a sweetheart and came over to help me iron, and finally I think I have most of my clothes ready and packed up to move to school.

2. An emergency dental visit. I discovered a giant hole in one of my front teeth that seemed to appear overnight. This was particularly bad because I maxed out my coverage under my dad's dental plan when I got two teeth removed last month. Thankfully I remembered that I was covered under the school's plan... there's no opting out this year I guess. I was able to squeeze in an appointment and I got it fixed up. And the retainer that I had made last week came in the same day, so I didn't have to come back to pick it up another day. It all ended up costing so much that I wonder if I should've gone into dentistry instead.

3. My inability to get keys to my new apartment. I wanted to start moving my stuff in today, but apparently I need to fill in paperwork to be approved for my new building before I can get keys. I had them fax me the forms so I have to fill them in and fax them back to the office by tomorrow in order to hopefully (fingers crossed!) get keys by Sunday! Or else I'll just have to hope my roommate can get keys and let me in... The other pickle is that I need a guarantor but all my immediately family is out of the country.

4. My OSAP documents are still not processed. I need money.

To balance out the crappiness, here are some good things that have happened:
1. Having my school dental plan.
2. My tuition payment going through on time. (I did that at the very last minute too...)
3. Going camping and treetop trekking on the long weekend to make the most of the gorgeous weather we've had.
4. Gorgeous weather.
5. Rooftop patio lunch and delicious ice cream with friends.
6. Having been in an ice cream shop where Bryan McCabe has been.
7. Catching up with my cousin over dinner.
8. Filling up at 125.9.
9. More fun weekend plans with friends to look forward to.
