true story: when I was young (about 6 or 7) I flipped through my parents’ vacation pictures from Universal Studios. one of the pictures was a photo of my mom lifting up an entire side of a van. “I used to be bionic,” she said. I believed her.
now, being a fan of the Six Million Dollar Man, I understood what being bionic meant and what you could do. so one day in class, our assignment was to draw what we wanted to be when we grew up. I drew a little man scaling the entire side of a building with a single leap. we were all asked to share about what we drew, and when it was my turn, I shamelessly told everyone that I wanted to be a bionic man! I think everyone laughed, but I didn’t care. :P
oh, and by the way, if you’re newer to the world than i am, the picture above is the Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman :)

hello friends!
it’s been a little over a week since my family came back from our trip to Maine. It had been a while since our entire family went away on a vacation like this. the last time, i think, was when we went to Tennesee! i know Maine doesn’t sound that exciting (and it really isn’t) but the Yung family can make a boring place ridiculously fun! i’m just gonna post up a few pictures here. the rest you can check out in the flickr set.

unattended pie stand – you could totally steal these and get away with it. but you’d be eating it with a guilty conscience…never a great way to enoy a pie.
antique store – these were great!
lobsters! big juicy lobsters! seriously, the best i’ve ever had.
my parents – thanks mommy & baba!
today is my mom’s birthday!
man, this stuff turns my mourning into dancing!
i guess i’ve come to realize that my nose gets pretty stuffed during certain allergy seasons. thankfully, it’s just stuffy nose and not sinus pressure or watery eyes or anything like that. but when it does get stuffed it sucks! the vicks nasal spray (pictured above) has given me the quickest and most satisfying relief. there are other similar products on the market that come in a similar form – gel – but i think the mist spray is the best.
here’s why.
a spray will bother the fack out of you and make you sneeze like crazy for the first minute. at first, i didn’t look forward to this side effect, but if you’ve had a clogged nasal passage before, you know that nothing opens that sucker up like a sneeze. so there i am, sneezing like crazy, but at the same time i feel the effects of the vicks vapors start to take effect. this is an awesome feeling. after this happens i’ll start to feel my nasal passages clog up again and then i’ll be all like “OH NO!” but no worries, it’s just snot. i blow all that crap out and just then just wait a couple minutes for my nostrils to really clear up.
effect will last at least a good 12 hours!
it’s awesome in a bottle.
