when i turned on my tv last night, it broke. finally after 8 years i could go shopping for a new one. straight to sam’s club for a flat screen HD tv….

i went big!!! a 42″ sony flat screen tv. i hope i get 8 years out of this one too. now i’m going to look for a dvd to stick in….

i tried to time it right and checked diamond head at 2:30pm. it was nothing like yesterday. it was worst… windy and cold. there were only 2 guys when i paddled out and then there came teppei tajima and nick mita. those guys were ripping so hard that it was time for me to go in. shit, i have to practice more on small waves. thanks for schooling me boys….

then i met up with eiko and jared. i learned some sign language that i will never forget. thanks eiko for the present… and jared, i’m thinking about learning to sign language. where do you teach again?? maybe i’ll take a summer course…. yoroshiku ne…
**hey chicks, the buoy came up so expect pipe to be 6′ and maybe bigger tomorrow. the contest will probably be on and expect windy conditions. morning sickness conditions cleaning up throughout the day. good luck girls…. puinsai….

**and last, it was so weird that i was going to put teppei’s dvd on my blog tonight. and i seen him paddle out to light house. what timing. everybody’s been telling me that this is the best dvd that’s been out in a while. i remember teppei when he was a little grom surfing shidashita every single day. now he’s the JPSA grand champion and freaking ripping. it’s so stoked to see a grom with a dream, a dream that came true. go teppei!!! see you this summer ripping up the south shore. and as soon as i go to japan, i’m going to buy this dvd to watch on my new big ass tv!!! yeah!!!

CHEESE….

good morning. 6am monday morning and the waves are small again. and it’s pretty dam windy. today, i’ll be nice and tell you where the best surf spot on the island will be….

diamond head cliffs. i checked the waves at 2pm yesterday afternoon and it was head high and perfect. the rights were breaking really nice all the way across. only 2 guys were out and it was a sunday so i know nobody knew how good the waves were. it was the best cliffs i’ve seen in a while. if you go there today, don’t go too early or too late. go exactly at 2:30pm and just paddle out no matter what. that’s going to be the best spot and it’s going to be uncrowded…. i hope i have time to get wet. have a great day!!!

yesterday i went close up with kalua… this boy is huge….

going to open houses gives me motivation to work hard. at 5 million dollars, i can have this view every single morning when i wake up. i’m almost there… haha. i wish…

i wasn’t kidding when i said that yesterdays sunset was one of the best one in a while. i took this photo with my cell phone. imagine if i had my canon with me? oh well, there will be more. can you figure out where this is??

55 vw baby window. this one was in the car show. gosh, i wish i still had mine…. someday i’ll get one again….
