I’ve behaved myself all week. And by that, I mean I’ve eaten well and put my head down and got some writing done. This morning was reward time, I caught up with a few girlfriends for a coffee.
We sat around and talked about our first world problems. Traffic was high on on the list, followed by whether to have a small or a large latte and going to the movies and the movie not playing. Oh and the real drama was when we realized the spinach thingy had been taken off the menu.
Okay, so it wasn’t that vacuous. There had been some bad news from family, someone was worried about a friend. There was concern about a job and what might be happening in the future. It was the usual day to day stuff. But for the most part, it was first world.
I found this video the other day and smirked my way through it, but the full cup moment had me giggling out loud.
Enjoy.
Got any first world problems?
Clever…a bit of perspective in there!
Thank you, Kirsty, you gave my problems a bit of a perspective today. But I did give full credit to you on the blog 🙂
I love this, it is a great reminder how small our problems are. My worst hardship this week? We had a lot of traffic on our way to school and made us late by 10 minutes. I was cross. And now I’m embarrassed by how cross I was. How stupid we must look.
Got a belly laugh from this one. Should watch it every day so I can call that doing my abdominal exercises. 🙂
Me. me- I called the person I am trying to make into my new friend the wrong name for two days and then made her child vomit all night after she stole the ANZAC biccies I baked for them and hid in the cupboard and gorged on them. I feel like I am way behind on my friend quotient here and it made me sad for a little while. Then I remembered all the friends in my computer – 😉
Two first world problems today. My daughters school needs 3 more pupils so that they keep 3 straight classes instead of 2 composites – its a tiny infants school. The other problem – trying to work out how to consolidate my Super. Definitely FWPs! Thank you for putting it into perspective!
I love that you called someone the wrong name for 2 days because it makes me feel so much better about doing exactly the same thing! xx
I’m home (in the UK) after a month in Laos – and my first world problem is which alternative to rice I shall eat today …
