Nikon D3100 w/ 18-55 lens autofocus issues?

Hello!

I bought my girlfriend a Nikon D3100 kit with 18-55mm lens. I opened to play around with it.
I am happy with the camera but the autofocus is weird sometime, I know its probably due to my inexperience with DSLRs.
I read the manual and learned about all the modes but I still not getting if its normal what it does.
So I try to focus on the lamp at the end of the room zoomed all the way in, I press the shutter half way and the camera starts to focus.At first its blurry, the motor focuses and it passes the crisp image and goes back to blurriness from where it started. When I zoom out a bit and focus its fine.
Would getting a different lens change anything? My simple pocket camera can focus on it no prob.

Any tips on setting that thing up would be appreciated.

Thank you,
