I just got to yell at a couple of noisy neighbors, like two seconds ago... that was fun. They have been kinda loud and annoying since I got here, but tonight I'd had enough. I could tell they were standing in the hallway so, I leaned out of my apartment and got their attention... I said, "Oy! Keep it down, I don't want to hear you anymore!" One of the guys said, "Oh, S-s-sorry..." I probably scared the ba-gee-bees out of him... LOL probably didn't help that I have NO make-up on and I'm in my Paul Frank monkey jammies... hahahahahhahahaha fun times.
Noisy people have now left the building.... :)
Well, besides all that craziness.... I really like it here!!!
We were able to meet up with a couple that my Dad knew while he was serving his mission in Canada. When he knew them they lived in Regina and were very new members of the church. Now they have migrated west and are living in Surrey (its a suburb about 45 mins from the city). They met us outside my apartment building and then we walked to a great little restaurant down about a block from my place. Its called White Spot... its very yummy!!! After dinner, they wanted to see my apartment, so we went up and had a nice visit. They are such great people! They promised my Mom that I would be well looked after :) Sally got my number so that "she could check on me and make sure I was okay"... They are going to make the stay here so much more enjoyable!
Mom and I went to the Wal Mart Super center and stocked up in a few household items I will need, like potty tissue, paper towels, cleaning stuff, tupper ware, etc. Plus I bought new silverware and a slip cover for the gnarly couch in the living room... its okay for sitting, it just doesn't look like much. AND I want to make this place feel as much as my home as possible. I know it will be easier once I am in a routine, but I am gearing up for the homesick phase that will hit when mom goes back to California.
I am looking forward to just walking and exploring new places. Like the Cross street for my apartment is equivalent to Oxford street in London. There are great places to eat, and shop. All the big designer names are on Robson... Sally said if I ever just wanted to walk the street and shop, to call her up and she'd be there! I hope my weekends will be filled with YSA activities and great people to be with.
I am very excited to start going to my new ward. I'll post more on that later ;)
Thats it for now... nighty night
