Wait.....Times They Could Be A-Changin..

Immediately after that final comment about wanting an app, I visited the app store. Downloaded Blogger+. $1.99. I remember back in the day when all apps and songs were 88 cents (this was slightly after we overcame waking to school uphill both ways).

When I was in high school, iPods didn't exist. We just got cd burning technology, but it was still okay to make a mix tape. Only a few people had cell phones, and those had really limited ranges - as in it cost more if you used it outside of your region, or called long distance.

So we'll see how this goes. For now, look at this statue that a group of ajummas violated, much to our entertainment!

An Update!!!

The bad part about having a blog is the personal responsibility you feel about updating it. So much happens, and you're like, "Oh man, I can't wait to write about this!!" But then even more happens and that excitement turns into dread because you now have so much to write about, and that'll be such a long entry, and when will you find the time and how will you organize your thoughts and it'll just end up being so long that everyone will look at it and go, "tl;dr" (clearly, I still have time to keep up with the gossip blog slang ;p)

So here it is in what will hopefully be a short paragraph: I've been knitting _a lot_.

Actually, I can end it with that and we'd be all caught up :p

No, really. It's become a hobby I've stuck with, and something I'm really good at. But, since this is my living overseas bog, and not my knitting blog, I'm going to tryyyyy to spare my already too long entries and not post stuff about "omg I keep forgetting to cast on those extra stitches for the picot edge and I keep having to re-turn my work!!!" (an actual complaint in another girl's blog - for those who knit, you understand what a dumb complaint it is to have to turn your work....not undo stitches, just turn :p)

I got an iPhone. I know there are people who totally hate being connected 24/7, but I've found that this thing has really liberated me. I was always afraid of getting lost (as we have blog entries documenting how well I've handled that). The google map function has made me much more adventurous, and I've found so many new ways to get around Seoul. For so long I was taking a way to Myeongdong that took 90 mins - now I can get there in 45~

Before getting into a phone contract in Korea, you do need to know that they will charge you for the duration of the 2 years, even if you leave after just a year. If this is something you can't handle, get a prepaid phone. Korean iPhones will work in America - you have to request that KT unlock your phone before you leave (which will probably cost $$ and probably means you can't use it on a Korean network anymore). It's much more expensive and complicated to get your foreign phone on a Korean network - I've heard, at least.

I need an app for updating my blog that let's me post photos x.x. I'm sure that exists.
