annoying - He is always annoying (ele é sempre tão chato/irritante)
boring (-) (chato // tedioso)
charming (+) (encantador)
confusing (-) (confuso)
convincing (+) (convincente)
depressing (-) (deprimente)
disappointing (-) (desapontador)
embarrassing (-) (constrangedor)
exciting (-) (excitante // entusiasmante)
frightening (-) (assustador)
interesting (-) (interessante)
shocking (-) (chocante)
surprising (-) (surpreendente)
terrifying (-) (terrível/assustador)
{awful tb é terrível mas significando de ruim}
tiring (-) (cansativo)
worrying (-) (preocupante)
and so on
Exemplo: How was the trip? Como foi a viagem?
Tiring! (cansativa) Of course he/she is not satisfied.
Minha sugestão é: Quando aprender novos adjetivos, tente aplicá-los, make up sentences, contextualize, assim fica mais fáciol memorizar...
Bons estudos!

As an aside, it´s interesting that "awful" can also go either way, a contronym of sorts (a word that is their own antonym, depending on context, of course). Indeed, not the standard English way, but at times, mostly in informal or slangy English or depending of the region.
Awful - bad
extremely bad or unpleasant
He suffered awful injuries in the crash.
We had awful weather.
She's got an awful boss.

That is, large, great, big, formidable... But not exceedingly good or bad. This is what causes trouble to me. At answers.com thesaurus synonyms are referenced as very bad, not very good or very bad.
"But "awful good" might be "standard" in Afro-American Vernacular English or rural Southern US English or any of the numerous regional and national versions of English."
Maybe this is the key, formidably good, largely good, but awful should remain impermeable to a bizarre synonymization with good, because it's origin is just the opposite. Talking about synonymization, I think this word should be at Wiktionary. Scholar All articles - Recent articles Results 1 - 10 of about 10,500 for synonymization.
