good morning. 6:15am and i’m not going to even check the waves this morning. i can feel it’s good. i’m going to surf 2x today for sure so i better get out of here… have a nice day…
hey, i finally bought a new suitcase. it’s a 25″ samsonite suitcase that looks like a louis vuitton bag or something. these things cost over $1,000 in japan but i got mine brand new for $119. and it comes with a life time warranty so i’ll have it for the rest of my life. i’m so happy!!!
samsonite alta black label is what it’s called. check it out and don’t ask me where i bought it from because i ain’t telling… haha…
** i want to thank everybody for the emails.
To: Sonja, what do i do for a living? that’s a great question. i think i try to be happy for a living. nah… i guess you can say i’m lucky to have such great sponsors in japan that have been supporting me for half my life doing what i love to do best, which is surfing. if it wasn’t for them, i wouldn’t be the here writing a response on my blog because i probably would be working in an office all day and drinking my life away all night and yes, i have freaking fun every day. it’s a tough job but somebody has to do it. mahalo…
To: Marvin, wow, you live in germany? cool… grab your girlfriend, daughter, and immigrate to hawaii. your life will never be the same. and sorry, i won’t be able to adopt you guys. my house is too small. haha.. as for kelia, i will give her your message. yes, i think she will leave big marks in surfing history too. i really appreciate your support for us. and we will be working on getting this site fully up in english too. your not the first one requesting that. and yeah, maybe someday we can sit down and drink a heinaken together…
