good evening. wow, i’m burnt out!!! was in the sun all day long!! tired and thristy!!! give me some water and let me go to sleep…. have a great evening…

it was in 1992 when i first met kitamura-san. he worked for minami sports/local motion so he was one of the guys who took care of me. i remember catching the train to motomachi in yokahama to pick up clothes from the local motion store over there. kitamura-san use to always take care of me. then in 1996 or so, i saw kitamura-san on a flight back from taiwan. back then, not too many people knew about surfing in taiwan. i went to investigate, and kitamura-san went to surf. since then, i haven’t seen him…… until last night. when i first seen him, he looked the same way as he did 14 years ago. it’s so funny how some people just don’t change. we had a great dinner. thank you kitamura-san and yu-san for the omiyage. i can’t wait to eat it!!!

i’m going to cook some hot rice right now!!!! itadakimasu!!!!
**remember when the mainland states were caught giving away hawaii one-way tickets to the homeless? well, it’s payback time!!! the hawaii government has decided to give the homeless in hawaii a one-way ticket back to their home. the government says “it’s to reunite their families together.” are you kidding? so we as taxpayers are paying for airlines tickets. and how much you wanna bet the mainland states will buy them one-way tickets back to hawaii? who’s making out on all of this? the homeless are. they are flying for free!!! i wouldn’t be surprised if they get business class… there’s got to be a better solution…..


last, 31 year old local surfer jermy crandall from north carolina is my hero. last week, he seen a father and son struggling in strong currents. what does he do? he gives them his surfboard. the father and son survived but jeremy drowned. jeremy leaves behind a fiance and two young children. this guys my hero….

Early Morning…. So Nice!!!!

good morning. 5 am on this saturday morning. wow, no wind today!! it’s been a while… i wish i can go diving but got other things to do. the waves are small but really fun. i was at kewalo’s yesterday evening watching all the kids surf. gosh, their just getting better and better. i hope someday there is a WCT top surfer that comes out of kewalo’s. that would be cool…. anyway, i gotta get going. lots of things happening today. if i can get everything done, i can take a day off tomorrow and go diving? ganbarimasu!!! have a nice day!!!

i was at sandy beach yesterday morning and the waves looked pretty fun. i wish i had my mcdonald’s tray so i could bodysurf….

i’ve been so dam busy that i don’t even have time to eat. so it’s been fast food for lunch. i’ve been eating so healthy until this week. check out my chinese plate lunch 2 days ago. roast duck and ginger chicken on rice from a chinese restaurant down my street. $7, not bad yeah??

then yesterday i went to rainbows and ordered my favorite chili plate with barbecue beef on the rice. $8, not bad yeah??

up until now, i’ve been eating healthy so i can still feel the oily chili plate in my stomach. when i was going to college, i use to eat at rainbows 3-4 x a week. sometimes 2 x a day. i haven’t gone there in a while so the chili plate was pretty heavy for me. i don’t think i’ll be going back there in a while… it’s time to eat healthy again….

and last, i was at the car body shop yesterday and saw an interesting sign.
“FAIL TO PLAN – PLAN TO FAIL”

get it? i do….
