good morning. 6:15 am aloha friday. gosh, i was up on my computer all night for the past 3 nights. my eyes must be tired because i’m seeing double. i better turn it off right now before my mind starts to go crazy. i’m sure this can’t be good for your health right? i was thinking about going for a swim later. i was out at bowls looking at the course for the next swim race. kaimana beach to the hilton hawaiian village. over 2 miles but looks easy. maybe i’ll try it. can somebody pick me up and take me back to my car? haha…
oh, by the way…. i heard from surf garage toru-san that there is a huge fireworks show tonight in waikiki around 8:30 pm or so. some japanese company is spending a lot of money and he said it’s going to be way bigger than the new years or 4th of july fireworks. secret fireworks show? don’t miss it cause i won’t…. thanks toru-san for the info….
oh, as for the waves? small all over the island….
meet nimura-san. nimura-san is what you call a “weekend surfer.” for the past 10 years, he’s been driving from tokyo to chiba to surf 1 time a week, every week. i think that’s pretty hardcore considering the amount of money it costs, and also considering how cold the water in chiba is. anyway, what impressed me about nimura-san is how good he surfed, and how fast he can paddle. till this day, i haven’t met a “weekend surfer” with his level of surfing. i was impressed!! we surfed bowls and then decided to paddle down to rockpiles. there was only one guy out and the waves were perfect!! we had such a great session. and after a great session, a great lunch is a must. the best pho in town and i ain’t telling you where. haha…
thank you nimura-san for the presents!! i’m eating one right now!! itadakimasu….
wow, look how dark i am. you can only see my teeth. haha… too much sun!!
**remember that robbery near my house last week when all the police, dogs, and helicopter were looking for the guys that got away? well, 4 of the 6 robbers that broke into the house down my street had shotguns. yeah, shotguns. the kind that arnold swarchenegger used in the terminator movie. well, they finally caught all 6 bad guys. but just the other day i was thinking about something. while the hundred or so police were searching around for the bad guys, why didn’t they tell the neighbors anything? there were kids running around all day while cops were just standing on the streets just looking into the mountain. what if one of the robbers entered a house to hide? ever think of that? if one of the policeman’s houses where close by and he knew his kids were home that day, do you think he would call home and tell them to stay inside and lock the doors? i would. i got kind of upset as i thought deeper and deeper into what happened that day. luckily nothing bad happened but it could have. if i were a robber running away from the police with a shotgun, i would probably enter a house nearby and held the gun to the owners heads saying “don’t say anything.” why wouldn’t i? i already did it 5 minutes before? why hide in the mountain and sweat when you could be in somebody’s house eating good food and watching tv? anyway, i hope it doesn’t happen again near my house because i know that nobody is going to knock at my door and say “be careful.” isn’t that common sense? if not, please tell me what happened….
