thank you Chichan for sending me these beautiful photos of Honolua Bay on Maui. 
it’s pretty crazy to think a surfer got attacked right before the contest started. they ended up cancelling it which i thought was a good idea. you don’t want to take a chance of that shark returning for more. the attack victim ended up dying. so shocking! it’s just too soon. anyway, rumors is that the finals will be held at Pipeline… 
woke up yesterday and my iPhone didn’t wake up with me. it was totally dead and couldn’t turn on. i have no idea what happened, and the Apple Genius didn’t know either. 
it’s pretty smart how Apple tries to fix your iPhone right on this table. they take your old iPhone and connect it for a diagnostic test. while you wait for the bad news, the brand new iPhone 12’s are right in front of you. you can’t help by not touching it and wanting it. then the next thing you know, you’re walking out the store with a brand new iPhone 12. so the trick of the genius bar is to get you in the store. you think it’s for free, but nothing in this world is for free. Tim Cook is a genius because i walked out spending $1,200 on a brand new iPhone 12. haha… 
to kill the pain, i went to See’s Candies to buy my favorite rocky road chocolate. it helped a little…
i woke up planning to foil for free. instead, i ended up spending lots of money and eating chocolate i usually don’t eat. oh well, life goes on…
