Do you remember Oscar the Grouch from Sesame Street? The green creature that lived in a trash can and who grouched about everything? Living among rubbish can’t be a good experience and it was no wonder he was always grumbling!
I felt exactly like Oscar this week! Things didn’t go smooth for me all week! You have heard about my iPhone woes…believe it or not, I have not finished restoring my apps and data since Wednesday! Added to this, I had a run-in with my internet! It was full of speed bumps that made access excessively slow. Then the washing machines turned bonkers!
The last straw was I vented my anger at my service apartment’s leasing agent whose customer service fell way below par! And even as I write, I still think my outburst was justified! As a long time, good paying tenant, one who seldom complains, sometimes I am made to wonder who is the customer and who is the service staff! Geez!
All in all, I have been a grouch! My world has been bleak all week …except for that one bright spark!
Park Sihoo-ssi! Looking at his sunny smiles in his photos, he perks me up! He is definitely a sight for sore eyes…even for grouchy me!
Can’t wait for this week to be over! I have lots to look forward to next week! Counting down! 8 more sleeps to Miyazaki!
Grouch! Scram!
牢骚!
还记得儿童电视节目芝麻街里的牢骚奥斯卡吗?绿色的生物,生活在个垃圾桶里,不断的对世界发唠叨?在垃圾堆中生活一定不容易忍受的事,也难怪他不断的发牢骚!
这星期,我感觉自己就像奥斯卡!很多事情进行得不顺利!大家都听到我为iPhone发唠叨….从周三到现在,应用程序和数据还没完全恢复,看来还要一两天时间!再加上家里的互联网突然变得特别慢,网页可以兜啊兜,就是下载不了!然后,洗衣机也疯狂了!
在无可忍耐之下,我把愤怒都发泄在我住的酒店式公寓租赁代理客服身上!现在,在冷静情况下,在写这篇文章时,仍然认为我的爆发是有道理的!一直以来,我是个良好的长期客户,按期付租,很少抱怨。以她的经常不理不睬的态度来处理事情,有时真的不知道谁是客户,谁是服务员!真烦!
是的,这周,我真的是个牢骚,坏银!我的世界看起来太黯淡…唯有一个耀眼的火花!
施厚君!看他那阳光灿烂的笑容,重新振作了我!他绝对可以让人感到心旷神怡……即使是个爱发唠叨的牢骚!
期待这不顺利的一周快快结束,把一切不好的都给带走!非常期待下周!倒计时!再多睡8晚就是日本宫崎活动啦!
牢骚!快滚开!

You may not believe me but I’m in a moment harder in my life I started looking for something new to me arouse interest to forget the difficult times, so I started to “fly into another world,” says a contemporary of me, and studying this beautiful part of the world have given and Korean series. Few actors caught my attention, one was PSH because the light that emanates from specific look and his smile. Then I watched anxiously all his series, we reviewed the most and when I did not know anything about him, I have found you “sisters” because of his activity Nance and I enjoyed very much. My concern with you the fate of the beloved actor, I occupy free time, than who have, to enjoy with you, to suffer with you, to find out and know good news with you. I enjoy the most of your presence.
Though you’ve had a hectic week , the essential skills are :thinking quickly and adapting without grumbling. And always remember that you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think! I know that you are bold enough to live life on your terms and laugh in the face of adversity. But most of all enjoy every moment of the journey and appreciate when you are at this moment. There is nothing more beautiful for you than going out of your way to make life beautiful for others. I’m one of them! Thank you!
All things, good and bad, come in three, Nance! You experienced the three bad ones past week and battled them. No doubt, the three good ones will arrive as well. Miyazaki and Odaiba are already a given of which the first one real soon! Give your iPhone the time it needs for full restore of the backup and relax Nance! 🙂 You always have a good feel for inserting the matching PSH photos with your posts! 😀
