yes everybody, huge news when Shun Murakami beat Kelly Slater in the ISO Games in Miyazaki. good boy Shun! and thank you Shin-san for the happy news… 
somebody asked me where we got this opihi from. i told him “you could be my best friend, you can even be my girlfriend, but i will never tell you where we got these opihi from. never….” haha… 
at our dream palace, there was a candle with a lighter next to it. so i figure it’s getting dark so i should light up the candles… 
i try over and over to light it and it wouldn’t light! there was even black smoke coming from the candle. something seemed weird…. 
come to find out, these were fake candles! it was the battery ones that light up when you turn on the switch! haha… i felt pretty stupid after because i didn’t even know these kind of candles existed. and why was there a lighter next to it??? if somebody took a video of me trying to light it up, that would have been pretty funny. 
got home and was craving for sweets! then i remembered Seira-chan baked a cream cheese pie and gave me a piece! 
omg, it was so delicious! thank you Seira-chan! 
imagine going on your first boat trip and it’s in Hawaii. and imagine jumping off the boat into an empty lineup with perfect waves. don’t imagine anymore because this is not a dream! 
i’m trying to teach Seira-chan how to surf different spots. how to find the waves, how to read the waves, and how to connect with the waves. she couldn’t have done a better job at Three’s… 
and i’m also trying to teach her how to grab any surfboard and be able to ride it from the first wave. the trick is to connect with your board because the board can’t connect to you. simply done… 
hope you liked your first boat trip. many more to come…
