the waves are small but on the way up. tomorrow should be going off!!

good morning. 6:30am on this historic day. obama is president? really? gosh, when he decided to run for president, everybody thought it was impossible for him to win. except him. talk about dreams coming true!! what an awesome story and i can’t wait to see what happens. “change”. that’s what this country needs. congratulations to hawaii surfer barack obama!! let’s take america to the top again!!!

check out this picture of obama that jasmin drew. i seen it hanging on her wall back in july and i thought it was so cool that i took a photo of it. change. yeah, that’s what america is waiting for….

last night was a blast. we went bowling and i haven’t laughed that hard in a while. this is toda-san hoping for a strike… i ended up doing pretty good. 190 for the first game. 3 strikes and 6 spares. 170 for the second game. 3 strikes and 5 spares. and the third? don’t ask. i barely made 100. i’m going to practice more because i want to break 200…

toda-san came to hawaii to eat. and he did a great job. shoyu chicken, yakiniku, steak, bubbies, yogurt land, and yogurt land. here is his favorite shoyu chicken plate. wanted to thank toda-san for the great time we had. have a safe flight back home!!!

and last, how cool is this tree? lonely but cool….
**oops, forgot the surf. waves small around the island but perfect conditions. town is waist/chest high with diamond head being the best. bowls has 6 guys on it and looking fun. i surfed it yesterday morning and the tide was too high. diamond head too. waiit to the tide drops a little and go surf. have a nice day!!!

good evening. small surf around the island today. small but super fun for me. went surfing with friends at bowls. had a great time and that’s all the counts. been hearing of a solid north/west swell on thursday. that might be my first session on the north shore this season. i’m getting excited…

if the wind are light, the first place you should check is diamond head. why? because it catches any kind of swell and if there’s no wind, it’s the longest right on the island. so i pull up there at 8:30am. the winds were kind of blowing so we headed to bowls, and bowls was the spot…

after a good surf session, a good lunch is a must. we headed to the steak place across the street from palama market. not too many people know about this place and i kind of want to keep it that way….

$10 for a 10oz ribeye steak topped with garlic? can’t go wrong. it was so good. just smell my breath.. haha.. thanks toda-san for the awesome lunch….

took my daily drive through waikiki. the waves were kind of small but still perfect for longboarding. seen a lot of japanese tourists enjoying the beach so that was good to see. is it because the gas is getting cheaper?

and last, wanted to thank toda-san and takami-san for the awesome present. this is my favorite and if you buy me this, i’ll be your best friend. haha.. just joking. by no means, i’m not an alcoholic, nor do i have an alcohol problem. i drink alcohol about once a week, or sometimes less. but when i do, jacksan and coke is my favorite. this huge bottle will last me for a long long time….
