Block
The one thing that really really annoys me is the internet censorship in China. Just yesterday I was checking out cute Yorkie puppy videos and now Youtube is blocked because random violent clips started appearing Sunday with footage of the Tibet riot. While I'm at the computer working, Youtube is like my main and only (thus favorite) source of entertainment/distraction. Shit...
Other blocked sites that affect me, hugely:
www.wikipedia.org
www.xanga.com
There are thousands of Westerners in China, how do they deal with this?
I've been using a proxy to access these sites, but it doesn't work with Youtube!! Help...this is like torture.
Omg is Blogger next?
--Can't wait to go to HK again.

New phone
I bought a phone in HK without much thought. Samsung F338
My first "slidy" phone.
The one I got is assembled in Korea so it has these creepy Korean pop songs/videos/pictures that are locked to the phone and I can't delete. It's great that they come with 2 songs but geez why did you make it so I can't delete em? NOT very happy about that. Oh and the keys are awkward...(but maybe that's cos I have long fingernails?) Grunt.
I think I might be anti Samsung cellphones now...

I've been listening to old Coldplay tracks while I work... I like this song:
And I'm not gonna take it back
And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that
You're the target that I'm aiming at
Got to get that message home
(By the way, can you see that video cos I can't)

Dining at countryside-themed restaurants are 'in' over here, though these are actually IN the countryside, you eat in a little room with big windows, the view:

My birthday is coming up... so is the company launch.
So much to do!! I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I think my head is gonna go.
