cut the grass

last time, i received a huge water bill, this is not the end, today, the toilet in my house is broken. the only toilet. really bad luck. so far, it has not been fixed. i will contact the agent later.
about the grass, i was very disappointed with the agent- Ray White. when i signed the lease with this agent, the manager told me that, i would not worried about the grass, because some one will take care it. i was very happy then. but few months passed, the grass was long, no body came to take care it. then i called the agent, later, the owner came here to cut the grass. and he came here several times to do that. but some days ago, i suddenly received a call from Ray White, the woman told me that i need to cut the grass. i told her the owner take care it. but she replied, and said, not any more. she also said the i claimed the owner should take care of the grass is not truth, becuase this rule was not on the lease. well i said i trusted you, so that one was not on the lease. bala bala. any way, she said i must cut the grass by myself beacuse on evidence showed that the owner should take care the grass. well, i do not know what to say, but i won't rent a house from Ray White again. but Ray White is really a big agent, i do not know why they did this.
anyway, i found a worker to cut the grass, but he asked for 200 dollar for that, that's too much, i just pay him 60 for the front yard, and i planned cut the grass on the backyard by myself. i bought some weed-killer in coles, but it really did not work well. so a mower is needed. this is not easy, i was trying to buy a mower on ebay, but that was too expensvie for me. and i heard that i can rent a mower on the oil station, such as 7-11.
there is a 7-11 near my house, just 10 minites by walk. i went there, and there are two mowers. it is not dear for rent, just 25 for 3 hours, and 37 for a whole day, but you need to fill the fuel, but just extra 1 or 2 dollar. after rent the mower, i started to work. this was the first time using the mower. i asked for help from my neighbour, he told me how to use it. not very hard to use. but cutting the grass was really a hard work for me, there are about 100 ms grass on the backyard, some of them are 50cm height, i am not kiding. after 1.5 hours i finished it, really very tired.
let pass pass, another thing, iPad is comming to Australia on 28th May, the loest price is 649 AUD, it is much higher that it sold in US, maybe because of the GST and tariff. i like the design of the Apple product. and i own an Ipod, but the first generation, i am not listening too much music now, so not need to change it. anyway, who likes iPad, be hurry, buy an Ipad, :)
it is very cold recently, winter is coming?
