LIFE ON MARS

today i went to my first of what will be weekly yoga classes. it was awesome. not really different than yoga in the states, except somehow it feels more like it belongs here in china than in america. that probably didn't make any sense, but that's ok. it was so nice and relaxing. a great way to start the day. then after i went with another yoga-er, kirsten, to starbucks for a delicious hot chocolate. it was fabulous! SOO...a few days ago, i was blog browsing, and one of my good friends had made a list of 100 things she loved. i thought that was neat, so later that night when i had some extra time, i decided to do that too! well i ended up coming up with more than 100, which really isn't hard. but i narrowed it back down, and i wanted to share...
