Let's revive the Blog

http://joelyoon.wordpress.com

I just started a wordpress blog. Why? Because Xanga is dying and people now use blog readers such as google reader. I know all of you who are reading this now want to see the blog revived... cause your reading this one! So if you do want to, I would actually encourage you to start a wordpress account and a google reader account and start commenting on others blogs to start the blog revolution. I can write much more about why I think blogging on xanga is a lost cause, but take my word, switch to wordpress and subscribe on google reader and have fun! Especially if you have a desk job and you need some breaks in your day.

Our Good News

Posted by Sharon

We feel blessed to be able to announce that this coming March, we are expecting our first baby! We just finished our first trimester and though it's been tough, the baby is healthy. We had the opportunity to get a couple ultrasounds and the one below is the video of our baby @ 12 weeks! We will find out the gender of the baby in two more months! We can't wait!

By the way, Joel is writing because Sharon doesn't feel well. The ones below are some of the rejects...
We're getting another one! We already have two cats and now we're getting a third. We don't know what to name the third yet, but we'll find out the gender in two months. By the way, it's not a cat, it's baby yoon!

Joel and I have been married for over three years and my middle section will become very big this year.

We feel blessed to be able to announce that this coming March, we are expecting our first baby! We hope he can dunk a basketball by the age of 13.

Kobe? A Future Bull?

That's what the Chicago Trib, ESPN, Kobe's website is saying. This could be a very strong possibility! I don't know about you guys, but if this happens, I support it 100%. I do think Kobe's a bit of a baby, even about how he's handling this whole "trade me" situation with the Lakers. But who cares! He's good! A bit on the selfish side, but definately a player you can build a franchise around. I love the baby bulls, I'm a big fan of what Paxson and Skiles has done. But I believe you need dependable "go-to" players to be able to win a championship. I believe Paxson and Skiles can definately bring in the right players for Kobe. MAKE IT HAPPEN!

On a side note, this past weekend, we had a Youth Rally for the STL yg's and it was a tremendous blessing to see God work. For both Sharon and I, we felt so humbled to see how God has brought these brothers to STL to work. For Pastor KJ, Pastor Mike and Pastor John, they've now been doing this for 2 years and are more used to it, but for a newbie like me, it was amazing to see how God has carefully been working all these years through CFC and now we're all doing ministry together in STL. What a blessing it is. Also, not to mention, Pastor David Kang was the speaker. God is truly faithful.

Lastly, we've moved into our home! We were homeless for 2+ months! So it's very nice to have a place you can call home! If you are in STL, and want a place to stay, we've got a guest room for you!

And this is a picture of our YG. Full Gospel Church of STL. Smile!

Is Your Mechanic Cheating You?

So I've been to jiffy lube a couple times because they have a $19.99 early bird special on a signiture oil change. That includes a regular oil change, topping off all fluids, vacuuming all floors, cleaning the exterior window, and a couple of other things. Not bad for 20 bucks.

But I've noticed that every time I'm there, they try to sell me something else. The first time around, it was to fill up some fluid, I forget. I tell them no. Then they do it anyways and charge me and then I have to argue with them for the next 20 mins to get the charge taken off. So it happened again yesterday. I get my oil changed, different jiffy lube, and they tell me my freon is low and I need new wipers. I say no to both and then they ended up replacing the wipers and charging me. So we argue and they take the charges off. But the funny thing is afterwards, they actually took the new wipers off and put the old ones back on. But I noticed while I was there, the guy would tell each person, something needed to be fixed. Like, do you want your transmission fluids flushed? You need a new this, or a new that... to each person.

So I get home and I decide to check out some complaints ppl would have about Jiffy Lube and wouldn't you know it..... check this out. http://www.nbc4.tv/investigations/8881193/detail.html Just beware of getting scammed by them. I also found out, their goal is to sell $60 worth of services to each person. They also work on commission basis, meaning, the more they rip you off, the more they make.

BEWARE OF THE JIFFY LUBE.
