Haaaapppppyyyyy 21st Biiirrrtttthhhhdddaaaayyyy to the best sister ever! :)
Okay, so today was really fun!
Although it was hard getting out of bed this morning, I finally got up and ready.
I worked from 9:00-11:30 and I scanned papers into the computer, filed some things, and manned the front desk while Nichole was at an eye appointment.
I had Chemistry after that and then I had a break until 3:00, so I called and talked to my sister who was enjoying her first alcoholic drink! :)
I then just sat and watched Gossip Girl until it was time for Hawaiian Studies which was interesting. We talked more about Cook and the colonization of the Hawaiian Islands. I also learned about the Hawaiian Flag. I never understood the pattern of it but it incorporates the British flag and the American flag to represent their bond with both nations.
After class I called and talked to my mom while heading to work. I haven't talked to her in a few days, so that was nice :)
I then worked for another hour and a half where I filed a ton of papers.
At 6:00, I was free at last!
I headed back to my room to drop off my backpack and print out the movie tickets for Catching Fire!!!
I went with Nathan and Marisa, of course, and we went to the 8:00 showing. It was weird not seeing it at midnight because that it what I am used to, but it was also kind of cool to see it before the actual release day!
As far as the movie goes? It was incredible. It followed the book so well and although there were a few things that could've been changed, it was awesome! Definitely a must see for everyone!
Then we came back to campus and I'm back in my room now, all changed and ready to sleep! I'm pretty tired.
So I'll talk to you tomorrow; Friday! Finally.
Goodnight <3

Kanakē ~ Candy
Not much to update you all on today. It's been a pretty chill day!
I woke up for Bio this morning and then had my Bio Lab at 9:30. Today's lab was honestly pretty pointless. We first had to group these index cards by different shapes on them, and then we had to find 8 different groups to categorize candy bars into, which we then were allowed to eat!! We got out early though, so I guess I shouldn't really complain! :)
I had an hour and a half until Oceanography, so I went to Jamba Juice and got a smoothie plus a bistro sandwich and also talked to my dad.
We had the same guest speaker in Oceanography as we did on Monday, and i again really enjoyed the lecture. It could also be due to the fact that we talked about the mammals of the ocean including sharkss! :)
I worked an hour from 1:30-2:30, and I worked on a bunch of copying of individual papers in different student files. The papers are quite old and due to the humidity, they tend to stick together, so the cipher got jammed about 9 times out of 10, how wonderful! I have to finish that up tomorrow, but after I went back to my dorm to get my things ready for practice.
Practice was indoors again, woo! We simply worked on music again. Next Monday we are recording everything that we payed this year, so we it's refreshed ourselves on the music.
I've been in my dorm watching gossip girl, doing online bio homework and studying for Chemistry.
It is also technically my sisters birthday in Florida, even though there are a few hours until the 21st, I called her right at midnight to wish her a super happy birthday! She is turning 21 on the 21st! Must be lucky :)
And that's it!
Tomorrow should be a pretty exciting day though!
Be on the lookout for that post! :)
Talk to you then! Night! <3

Mea ʻono ~ Cake
Another boring day here in paradise. The days seem to be getting longer the closer I get to flying home! I'm just so excited :)
So today I was able to sleep in because our Chemistry Lab is now over! So I slept until about 10:00, then I got up and ready for Chemistry at noon.
After Chemistry I came back to my room for about an hour, and worked on a little homework for my Bio lab tomorrow.
I had Hawaiian Studies at 3:00, which went well. We talked about Captain James Cook and how he came about discovering the Hawaiian Islands.
We got out if class about 15 minutes early, and as I walked out to catch the shuttle, it was pulling away at that exact moment. This meant I had to wait about 15 minutes for it to come back around again.
I then worked from 4:20-6:00. I tied ribbon around some certificates, I made copies, I ran the mail up to the mail room, and I helped one of the ladies in the office take all of her stuff to her car. Today was her last day in the office, which is sad. She is so nice! Her name is Leslie and she always was so peppy and sweet to me. She also brought in some chocolate cake today, and I got a piece if it. Yumm!
After work I had planned on going to the gym, but when I got there all of the elliptical and bicycle machines were taken and there was a wait for them, so I decided that it was a bad time. I'll try again at an earlier time in the day when it is hopefully not as crowded!
So I then went back to my room and I've been working on my Bio Lab homework which took forever! As well as a paper for Hawaiian Studies. Also, I've been cleaning up the hard drive on my Mac. There is so much clutter on there that has accumulated over the past two and a half years like random baby animal pictures and games and documents that I don't need anymore. All of it is slowing down my computer. So I didn't finish, but I'll probably work on it more tomorrow.
And that's it for today's post! Sorry they aren't the most exciting recently. I hope people are still reading! :)
Well I'll talk to you tomorrow night!
Byee! <3

Ula ~ Lobster
I fly home in exactly one month! EEEEEEP! I am so excited :)
So...
Boring and uneventful.
That was my Monday for ya.
I woke up, got ready and went to class.
I then worked from 9:30-12:00 where I didn't do anything really. I alphabetized, stapled and hole-punched some papers and that's about it.
I had Oceanography from 12:00-1:20 and we had a guest lecturer. She was really cool and so much better than the normal professor. Today's lecture was about Marine Invertebrates. Included were some videos of crab and lobster larvae which are actually the most adorable things ever!
I then worked one more hour from 1:30-2:30, and this time I really did nothing except man the front desk.
I walked back to my dorm and talked to my parents, and had a snack before practice.
Practice was inside today and we just worked on music.
And that's it for my day!
Oh, and here is a picture of my door that I talked about in yesterday's post. I love it and think it is zoo cute :)

Wahine ~ Woman
Here is yesterday's marching performance!
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ndfJ0W3zYAM&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DndfJ0W3zYAM
Today wasn't the most interesting one out there, but overall it was a good day!
I slept in until about 11:00, and then got up and showered. Marisa and I wanted to go to PetSmart to see the animals today, but she ended up not waking up until like 3:00., so that didn't happen.
I just sat around and watched some Gossip Girl, and then around 2:00, Cari, another flute player texted me and asked if I could sun for her at the basketball game today since she is sick. I agreed since I had absolutely nothing else to do. :)
So I got dressed for that and left at 3:30. I ended up getting there really early again, but I just sT and watched the end of the previous game. Today's game was a Rainbow Wahine Game which are the womens basketball team, which is not at interesting and intense as the men's, but it was still fun to watch.
So yesterday at the football game, the entire flute section was playing with, braiding and just admiring my hair, and they continued to talk about it today at the basketball game. It is so funny to hear them talk about how nice my hair is, when in reality, I'm jealous of their hair! :)
Unfortunately we lost the game, but it was very close the entire time and the final score was 57-52.
After the game I just came back to my room for the night. I printed out little Santa hats and taped them to our little ice cream on the outside of our door, and also made some holiday decorations for our room which I'll take pictures of and post tomorrow. I would do it now, but in already in bed and don't feel like getting out :)
My roommate got back around 9:15, and we had a nice hour and forty-five minute long conversation. We haven't been talking much lately, so that was cool. :)
And now I'm laying in bed, ready to drift off and sleep!
So I'll talk to you tomorrow!
Goodnight <3

Hemahema ~ Awkward
Today was definitely not a boring day for me!
I woke up pretty early this morning, around 8:00 and got ready. I finally decided on getting pizza for the potluck tonight so I looked up the Pizza Hut hours, and they opened at 10:00. So in the meantime I got all of my game day things together including my uniform and hat and all that jazz.
At 10:00, I called Pizza Hut and placed my order. I figured it wouldn't be too expensive, and then she tells me that it is going to be $42.00 for 3 large pizza's and I was really surprised. Anyways, I caught the bus and got the pizzas. I check the receipt and they charged me $3.00 extra for having the pizza cut into 12 slices each instead of 8, even though she is the one who offered and did not tell me she's be charging me more. Whatever.
So I then had to catch the bus back to campus, and let me tell you, don't ever go onto a public bus with three fresh, hot pizzas. It is very awkward.
First of all, the bus driver gave me the weirdest look ever when I got on, and then it was a pretty crowded bus and everyone was just like pointing and looking at me with my pizza's. I was not enjoying it. Oh and not to mention the smell was like wafting through the bus, drawing even more attention to me.
I got back to my dorm around 11:15, rested for about 20 minutes, and then headed off to the music building. It was quite the struggle having to carry my uniform, helmet, hat box, bag with shoes, socks, gloves, AND three large pizza's clear across campus, but I eventually made it.
We then headed off to the stadium! And when we got there, I see that Nathan ended up bringing pizza too! He brought two cheese pizza's and I had two pepperoni, one cheese, so we had plenty!
It was then time to rehearse, which was for about 2 hours, and then the warrior walk.
After this, it was time to eat :)
We had a big pizza party basically, and it was great! While we were eating, the whole section was playing this really fun party app called "Head's Up Charades". It was hilarious!
I still have 1 1/2 pizza's left though that I had to shove into the door of our mini fridge because the box barely fits!
Game time finally came around, and we headed out for pre-game, which went well, but is kind of boring now.
Today we played San Diego State, and for the first two quarters, we played pretty well, but it was tied 14-14 at half time.
Half time was great! I think we did really well and I'll post the video once it is up, which will be tomorrow.
Unfortunately we did not win the game, but it did go into overtime, so it wasn't a huge loss for us!
After the game, Nathan and Marisa wanted to know if I wanted to go with them. We were going to go to the beach, but instead they decided to stop at Jack in the Box to get stuffed Jalapeño Peppers and then go to Walmart. What a surprise...haha! :) It was really fun though because we were all tired, which caused everything to be funny.
Tomorrow we are going to go to PetSmart and see the animals there and maybe do something else, we haven't decided yet.
I'll be sure to let you know tomorrow though!
So, I guess I'll talk to you then!
Goodnight :) <3

Makana ~ Cookie
Today was a pretty productive one!
I did accidentally sleep in about 30 minutes this morning, but I still got up and ready in plenty of time for Biology at 8:30. Afterwards, I worked from 9:30-12:00. There wasn't much for me to do around the office, however, one of the employees in the Nursing Dean's Office is leaving and moving to California. There was a little get together with food, and my supervisor and I went up and wished her off.
Oh! And she has this itty bitty dog who is the cutest thing EVER! He was even all dressed in a little yellow rain-coat. He's affordable! :)
I had Oceanography from 12:30-1:20, we talked about biology in the ocean...Marine Biology! Haha :) I enjoyed it!
I worked another hour from 1:30-2:30 and I was in charge of the front desk again because Nichole had to go to class.
That was it for the day, except for practice. Thankfully, practice was inside today and we just worked on music.
After practice, when I got back to my room, I got a lot of things done! I started a load of laundry only because I needed to wash my UH Marching Band shirt for the game tomorrow. While those were washing I went to theMarket to use up my leftover meals, came back and moved the clothes to the dryer. While waiting for the clothes to dry which takes an hour, I went and ate some dinner.
Ooh, and they just so happened to have white chocolate, macadamia nut cookies in the cookie tray! I was so excited, they're my faaavorite! <3
I then retrieved my dry clothes, folded them, and put them away. I also submitted my timesheet for work, did my online lab homework that is due tomorrow, watched Gossip Girl, and cleaned/tidied up my room!
And I am now stuck on what I am going to do about the main dish I have to bring to the game tomorrow! I'm thinking about bringing pizza, but I don't really want to spend $30 on pizza so....I'll just keep thinking!
But now, I'm heading off to sleep because I'm going to have to get up pretty early to go get some "main dish" and still get back by 12:15 so that I don't miss the band bus to the game that leaves at 12:30!
Soo, I'll talk to you tomorrow night :)
See ya <3
