Too many people in Tokyo!!!!

did you know they raise pearls in flores, indonesia? a necklace averaged $20 but i wasn’t too sure about it. i would hate to buy one and bring it back to hawaii only to find out it was candy or something.. haha…

kairi noro is in california training how to become a world champion surfer. good luck kairi!!!

2 years ago when i went to a football game with my friend amy, she dropped her blackberry into her beer after UH scored a touchdown. after that, we were talking about how to dry it out. everybody says to leave it in a container with uncooked rice so the rice absorbs the moisture. i totally forgot about it until my classmate toby, who i’ve known since 3rd grade sent me an email yesterday saying to put it in rice. so my drowned dead iphone is sitting in rice and will be there for a while. should i put natto in there too? haha… hey toby, thanks for the tip. and can i please put our 5th grade photo on my blog? i still have it and it’s pretty classic….

and last. if your from hawaii, you will understand this sign. if your from anywhere else in the world, you probably won’t. i had to stop and look twice before deciding whether to park my car there or not…

good morning. it’s early in the morning and i’m ready for another trip! my suitcase is still packed from my last trip so i’ll just grab it and head to the airport. going to surf typhoon 14, visit family, and enjoy the big dove wetsuit contest and party this weekend. i’m only gone for a few days but it’s going to be action packed. stay tuned….
oh, my iphone that drowned at sandy beach is dead. i lost all the data i stored for the last 6 months so if you sent messages, or i have your phone number on it, it’s gone… sorry…
