omg, i can’t believe how good this plate of ham is! 
Seira-chan got the sandwich and loved it. 
this past March, the waves and weather was so junky so we surfed Diamond Head almost everyday. it was pretty stormy, tiny, and cold. so pulling up to Diamond Head yesterday, Seira-chan was so happy to finally see how good this spot actually gets. 
i just sat in the inside and watched her do what she does best, which is to connect with board and wave. just like this…
super smooth and very cool surfer style. 
my friend Barry is the happiest surfer in the world. i can hear this guy screaming from my house! haha. that’s what makes me want to surf out there. i love happy people… here is Barry passing by screaming my name and giving me a high five! 
if you can smile while taking a drop on a wave, then you’re in a wonderful place. you will see and feel the beauty 10x more than if you don’t smile… 
and if you can glide across the ocean and spread your wings, you’re in a good place. so yeah, i’m a very happy man… 
surfing with this girl everyday has been a treat. she listens, she tries, she practices, she goes with the flow, and most of all, she looks forward. not only in the water, but in life too. so surfing with her is like surfing with an angel… 
“This is my happy place.” Seira-chan loves Hawaii and everything about it. she lived the local style life for the past month and a half and completely fell in love with it. i know she will be sad when she gets on the airplane and leaves Hawaii. BUT, i told her “there’s no reason to be sad. Hawaii will always be here for you. just focus on completing college and then all your dreams will come true.” it’s so crazy but i know what ever this girl dreams, it will come true for sure. i’m not a fortune teller, but i just know she will be in a Happy Place forever…
