Hmmm, where should I begin... I have over 4 months worth of annoyance to share, but I try to keep it short -Chinese people... Naaw, just kidding, maybe only the Suzhounese people. Minus few not-so-annoying numbers. -Chinese traffic, their way of driving is terrible -Chinese food, made me gain 10kg's 4 months (partially I blame the wather too, first two months it was damn too hot to do anything that wasn't mandatory) -Chinese habits (picking your nose on public and cutting in line not to mention staring and talking about the funny laowai and touching the stuff that she's bying from the store!) -Heathrow, you damn stupid place not able to function with snow! Because of you I had to change my flights in to one straight and hell a lot more expensive one since my visa was closing and I wanted to get home before 24th. -Chinese way of building houses that can't take the waether, last for longer than 10 years max, in summer keep the cool in and hot out and in the winter keep the cool out and warm in! And some new annoyances... -Myself (habits stuck, I still live in Beijing-time, and getting used to being served in finnish is quite hard, even on the plane on the way back, I spoke english even that the crew was finnish and few of them spoke finnish to me ) And the weather, why does it have to be soooo cold? I like the snow thou, but the cold...

Apparently I'm going to China this Saturday and if everything goes as planned I'll be back for yule.
Not sure if internet connections exist, work and let me do what I want on my spare time, so see you next year.

Some people in China who I haven't met (yet). Come on, I need that invitation letter asap for my visa!!!
My teacher for being so negative about my arrangements for my final on-the-job learning period and questioning whether she'll be able to get my evaluation, degree work and all that stuff in time so I'd graduate in January. (She should trust me, even if I have no clue what I'm doing, I'm still going to do my best)
My limited money situation. ARRRRGH! I so wish I'd be able to buy direct flights, but since I'm totally dependant of the schools "financial assistance for student exchanges", I have no choise but to take cheapest ones. And of course it's not free money. They are making me write a story about my "exciting and exotic exhange" to schools newspaper.
So much annoyance, so little time.

Interesting game It does allow teenagers to get pregnant, but only lets them to give birth _after_ getting married 5 years of pregnancy, what a wait! (And what if the teeagers don't get married and they break up?) (and of course I had to name that kid "Ping" and all her 4 brothers got the name "Pang", waiting time for them to arrive was shorter, though.)

So much to do and so little time... I would have wanted to know about it earlier, but nooooo, not possible. Fuck. And of course I didn't start money consuming preparations when I thought that maybe I didn't qualify to go; why waste money on ftuff that isn't necessary in safe of your own country.
How the hell I'm going to get myself vaccinated in two weeks? How long does it take to get travel insurance, visa and oh yes, the plane tickets. *dies*

Somehow I have this mental image of her being on two episodes, not sure (and too lazy to search). Oh, and thanks for sharing those, a good laughter on someone elses expence is always good fun

Annoying relatives who think they know everything when they don't have a clue and yet you can't explain them, because some things are way too personal to be told to people who definitely will not keep those things to themselves and will share them with even more annoying relatives who will misunderstand it on purpose and AAAAARGH! It just doesn't help that on top of everything my depression is creeping back. I can feel it and I'm trying to fight it all I can, but once again I'm fearing that I might lose it. And that is something that even further makes it harder to deal with certain people who I love to certain point but to who I'm not going to let know about certain things in my life. So complicated. Or maybe it's just me. Or maybe they could just start acting like adults and stop making up things and hurting the feelings of others (like questionin disabled sisters need to use wheelchair and stuff like that) and somehow control their urge to somehow control other peoples lives! /frustrated rant about relatives

Someone over there has a huge problem accepting, that their daughter is gay and has someone she loves and who loves her back as she is... rr-bb.com/showthread.php?143234-Need-help-answering-question-for-gay-daughterSome of their responses almost make me throw up, but after I remembered that it's RR we are talking about I managed to keep my lunch inside. Especially their attitude toward the OPs daughters girlfriend *insert rr's throw-up-smilie here*.

This heat is driving me crazy and as the temperature indoors is at least +27 degrees celcius all the time it is just ruining my sleep. When will it end and when I can have the chance to curse the coldness again! I really miss the cold and dark. Especially the dark! Few hours of dark just isn't enough!

I have no idea why, but that granny just makes me go "Awwwwwwm! Can I adopt her?"
I'd make her sit in the corner and then tell her how I celebrate the yearly feasts and then go "Awwwwwwww!" all over again when she tries to get all preachy. I'd never have dull moment again, ever!

Sand in my nostrils, burned skin and the fresh air poisoning.
3 day music festivals are 2 days too long for me, I feel so old.
