i still think i have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. i tell everybody not to look at me when i’m riding on the side. but nobody ever listens. look at Saori-san looking right at me. and if you look at me, you will hit me.

Ojiro-kun looked at me too when i was trying to take his photo. and guess what? his board knocked me right in the head too. that is 2 huge long boards hitting my head in the same day. not too much fun. haha.

but how can you get angry when you see the cutest smile after? Ojiro-kun always laughs at me when we crash into each other. sometimes i think he’s doing it on purpose. haha

the other day was super dark and overcast. not a day to go out on a boat, but we did anyway.

i was timing her bottom time. first try was 32 seconds. i think she can go a minute easily. just have to be more relaxed.
