Ironically my prom theme was Don't You Forget About Me and I don't care if most of those people have forgotten about me. BUT...you cannot!! I am hitting the 3 week wall and wanting to come home now! My list of frustrations and complaints about this place is growing rapidly so I will share a few so I can vent.
1. Still no internet
It takes forever for the Belgacon to set this up because we are in a brand new building. So...I can't piggy back on any of my non-existent neighbors connections and have limited time to respond to each of your wonderful personal e-mails. So sorry! And I basically can't translate Addy's homework and forms etc. from school every day.
2. Still no phone
Although the iPhone 5 has been released none of the stores have them and therefore the 4's still haven't been reduced. They are saying could be another 3 weeks. UGH!
3. Still no wardrobes in my house
I have clothes and coats and whatever still all over the floor-total chaos
4. Still no pots and pans
I don't know why we can't seem to get this stuff done but we can't
5. Still no friends
This is the worst! Laid on my bed and cried my eyes out 2 days ago because I feel alone and I have not had that instant connection with anyone I have met...you are all totally irreplaceable!
6. Still no washer or dryer
We have filled 2 huge IKEA bags overflowing with dirty clothes! Finally I almost broke my back dragging one of the bags on a hunt for a laundromat because remember I can't look up anything...and spent like 10 euro to do 3 loads. AND then had to drag home wet laundry because I didn't have enough for it to fully dry. And thank God for this English speaking woman there who helped me navigate the laundry token system-nightmare. Hopefully the washer dryer combo we bought last week will be delivered today between 3 and 4...so they say...nothing is reliable!
7. I am COLD!
It is like 50 degrees here and they think that is perfect weather for a picnic?! What the what is wrong with this culture?! I am sick of my entire day being outside commuting place to place to get nothing ever accomplished all the while being cold. I can't buy anything warm because I have no where to put it!
8. Bad news on shipping
Everyone is saying that if you ship me something I will have to pay a tax for it to be released. This girl Jodi who works with The Well just paid 90 euro to get makeup that her mom sent. WHAT?! And Amazon is proving to be worthless as well.
So there it is...
Seriously, I remind myself like all day that I have people who love me but they just aren't here. It gets me through the day. Thank you for your prayers and for not forgetting about me!
Forget about you? Are you kidding me? I'm coming to get you...tonight! Lol, I wish it were that easy right? You are SO missed everyday and I'm praying for you constantly BFF;) My heart breaks for you...I know you just want something to work out and to go "right"... I have to believe it will. Just wish it was sooner than later for my selfish sake as well! Haha...I love you and will send an email tomorrow and talk more there. Big ol hugs to you and that sweet girl if yours...we miss y'all to the moon and back.
