Murphy's Law
So, here I have decided to write more frequently, and I even had several days of posts planned on my comp at home (don't want to do too much in one day) and I set it up so you could get emails about my new posts and.... since Sunday when I was skyping my parents my internet connection at home has been broken :( I haven't had a lot of absences at work so I haven't asked a manager to call the internet company yet... but today after 9AM they said they would. Well, I have new pictures and stories that go with them... sigh...

Anyway... I was wondering... for the people who subscribe to the email, right now it only shows a short blurb of what I posted... I noticed I can send out the whole post. If you have any opinion on whats better: log or short post, then let me know.

Also, I thought I would point out something interesting I just learned about. Well... in Korea you can rent exercise equipment. I'm not sure if you can do this in America too, but it seems popular here. http://www.healthway.co.kr/ is a site I was looking at. In my constant quest to become Xena Warrior Princess I really like exercising :)

The new gym John and I joined is totally ghetto! The treadmills are missing pieces, it smells worse than my farts, its super hot in there and extremely crowded (even at 10PM!) However, on the up side, its only $30 a month (which is really cheap in this area of Seoul, they provide you with clean shorts and t-shirt each time you come and its open 24 hrs except on weekends. Its ok... but I really miss CaliforniaWOW... that was the gym I belonged to that went bankrupt and the owner ran away and left the country :( Yeah, I lost money, but more important that that, I lost a gym I loved, filled with really awesome people... sigh. Well they are building a new gym in that same location, who knows, maybe it will rock too. Its called Muscle Factory, so I'm a little leary of it.

AND.... happily enough there is a new hot yoga place just across the street from where I work, and John even said he would go there and try it out! :) Hot yoga is so much fun, and such an awesome way to become Xenaeqsue (I love making up words, and I love Lucy Lawless!)

So, perhaps soon I will be able to upload more pictures. Oh, and I am considering buying a new camera. I haven't decided if I should get a compact one or DSLR, but right now all I have is a cell phone camera, so I think I need something better. Any ideas?

I like a teaser email ...that way it's easier to look through the old posts.
