For me the last week of summer always seems to go at warp speed. I have figured out it is because I try to jam pack a half years’ worth of errands into one week so that I do not have to do them myself once I move away from home. This opens the way for an extremely busy and non-relaxing week, which was true to the extreme this year.
Well this year to make my week before school ten times harder than normal I was not allowed to take allergy meds. This meant, that most of the week, I had such a bad head ache and was so zoned out that you were basically wasting your time talking to me. Having this state of mind while having to be functional and make decisions does not work out well. Somehow I managed to function enough to get through them all. Though, I barely made it through Wednesday due to having a stupid sinus headache the night before. At the end of the errands I came out with some interesting stuff. I found out some of the things that I am allergic too. Turns out I am not allergic to nature (at least according to their tests) but I am allergic to mosquitoes, which is not a great allergy to have in Alberta. I also got a new laptop to replace my semi-broken one. But the best thing I received from the errands was a new pair of glasses and a pair of prescription sunglasses. I can now see so much better when driving. It is so cool! Then by Friday morning I was all finished, and very exhausted, and ready to go to Edmonton. However, before leaving for Edmonton I made a pit stop at my aunt's house and played with my little cousins!
So finally I drove up to Edmonton with a car full of stuff. Now, driving three hours is hard for me as the motion of car rides makes me want to fall asleep. So in order to prevent me from sleeping at the wheel(which would be bad) I filled myself up with pop and candy which had very negative consequences later in the day. So, anyway after finally making to Edmonton umm...i had to unload my car which um took me forever as I took the time to set up my internet between each load. Once I got everything up to my apartment I set forth to find ways to avoid unpacking, which I was and still am very talented at finding. Who really wants to unpack?
Then on Saturday I decided i needed food which I found out was easier said than done. I thought I would do the smart thing and follow my gps to a walmart supercentre since they basically have everything I need in one spot! The GPs lead me to some random street but luckily from there I was able to find my way to Walmart because i had been in that area once before.
Then, later that same day, my hard drive crashed again so i decided that i am going to return it to the nearest Best Buy. Well my GPS took me to a Best Buy location that did not exist and it took twenty minutes to get there. Then when I finally did get to an actual Best Buy location, after getting lost at least twice more, I found out that I could not return it because the receipt I had was for my brothers ds and not for my external hard drive. So after driving around Edmonton for an hour I still was no closer to accomplishing my goal! And I really have no idea where the actual receipt is and my other hard drive is still in another city!!!!!!! GRR...i am really having no luck because on top of my hard dive issues the baking pan I bought is too big for the oven...like seriously i can’t even try and make a meal without something going awry. I guess it was just one of those days. So i decided to positively end the day by watching Two Weeks Notice( Yay Hugh Grant!) I really had forgotten how much i enjoyed that movie.
So all I have left before school starts is to find the floor in my apartment. This is a way harder task than it seems especially with my short attention span and so many fun distractions, like wii, around my place.
