Back Home

It's already a shit show!!!

One of my parents oldest friends passed away and their funeral was yesterday and SHE WAS THE NICEST LADY EVER! seriously! she was the nicest Vietnamese lady I've ever met and such horrible things have happened to her. My mom always treated her like crap, for some reason the nice lady and one of my mom's shitty friends (we called her goo-ma) were in some sort of feud I have no idea what it was about but I'm betting you that goo-ma is happy that she passed away. My mom and goo-ma would always prank phone call her and say horrible things to her and then hang up and then laugh about it, WTF. It just goes to show evil never dies. I don't know how many times I've wished death upon my mom or goo-ma for being such horrible human beings.

Anyways my cousin emailed me about the funeral and I went to tell my mom what time it was and where it was and my parents just looked at me like oh its not worth it. My dad kept shaking his head and kept saying no and I was like seriously? You've known this lady for more than 40 years, she hooked you guys up and you treat her like this? WTF.

She used to pick up me and my sister at school when my mom would forget to pick us up and she would make us super delicious pho :( she also gave me nice boots once and some clothes. I'm just appalled about how my parents treated her.

The main reason why my parents didn't want to go is because they knew they weren't going to get any money, the reason why my mom went to Colorado is because she knew she would get money from some relatives but she can't take the time to drive 20 minutes to her funeral WTF. Plus my mom was super mad at her daughter for not calling her personally and telling her about the funeral (SHE HAS OTHER PROBLEMS TO DEAL WITH THAN CALLING YOU!) stupid bitch seriously.

My parents are just horrible horrible people.

Just wait till my parents pass away they won't get a funeral just a cremation and I'll probably leave them somewhere and forget about them because they're not worth my time even after death.

**********

Steve's mom is here but she didn't piss me off yet... she's freaking out at Steve for playing video games and not finishing university because he wants to be a police officer so he chose to go to a criminal justice school to learn about criminology and law enforcement. She's never wanted him to be a cop but to be a robot in an office. He finally got a police interview somewhere and she said to him "if you don't get that job then you have to quit school in Canada and move back to Korea and study there" WHAT AN EXCELLENT PARENT!! SUPPORTING THEIR CHILD'S DREAMS!

WHAT THE FUCK AH?

Seriously what parent does that? Steve doesn't want to work in an office, I understand that Korea's a homogenous society and most people work in an office but she should understand what her son wants and what he doesn't want, instead of coercing him into doing things he doesn't want to do. He's also an adult capable of making his own decisions so he doesn't really need the support of his mom well maybe financially but his mom doesn't work anyways. She'll never see him as an adult, she always says he's too young even though he's 23 and she got married when she was 24 wtf lol.

I don't understand why she would want a Canadian citizenship (besides pension $$$) if she wants her whole family to live in Korea and keep the Canadian citizenship wtf. Can someone please explain this to me? because my mind is just blown from this situation. Steve says he doesn't want to live in Korea at all and if she forced him to he would just refuse but knowing him he would go and tell me later "You don't understand its Korean culture, I have to listen to my parents" he has no balls lol I know he'll go if his parents tell him.

What would you do??

How To Be An Asshole 2012

LOL ok I have no idea why people have been super pissing me off for a while now, maybe because I haven't seen most of my friends in a while and I haven't been able to vent with them (or about them) plus I'm stressed because Steve hasn't cleaned or he cleaned the house really poorly lol but I've been quite on the edge O_O (his mom will say that I'm not a good girlfriend and can't take care of him or myself because I can't clean even though I haven't been home in like a month -__-' slut)

I think I'm an asshole to be honest lol maybe not I don't know.. but in my opinion I am, because I'm lazy lol. Sometimes when I have plans I forget and just take a nap without calling my friends LOL I guess that's pretty much it lol and I blog about how Steve's mom is a bitch... But lately this has been the crap that has pissed me off in the past year and I think you're a super big asshole if you do any of these things lol.

**********

1. Invite yourself unannounced to somebody's house, eat all their food, use up as many utilities as possible, stay for as long as you want without consulting them, make a mess and then demand that everyone do what you tell them to.
  • This is what Steve's mom does! LOL, when she comes she acts like the queen of the world. Because we're younger than her she expects us to bend over backwards to every demand she makes, she hates me because I don't listen to her lol. I'll dedicate a nice blog post on her soon lol.

2. Only hang out with friends that have lots of money who are really inconsiderate or ones that can drive because you don't know how to and refuse to take the bus and never hang out with your good friends.
  • This has been nagging me for a while. I have a friend who I consider a good friend or did but he/she has been blowing me off for other "friends" who have a lot of money that they want to take advantage of. Otherwise if that friend had no money whatsoever then they wouldn't hang out with them at all because that person is also not a good friend. I want to warn that friend but I know he/she will just say I'm lying because I rarely hang out with them but I know that they really do want to take advantage of them because they told me they are trying to O_O why am I friends with this person!? lol they just turn into another person when we are all together! such a suck up!

3. Do whatever the fuck you want and not think about the consequences later.
  • This one probably appeals to most people lol but most of you won't do it because you would probably get arrested or murdered by some random people. I've come to the conclusion (with some help) that my mom is a crazy asshole lol (ok the people who haven't actually read anything I've written before about her go read it and come back!) Anyways she just doesn't give a shit about what she does (stealing, lying, destroying, speaking, driving) because she knows she can get away with it (and has) because she tells people either she doesn't understand English at all, pretends to be super retarded or she had surgery... This is a long story which I will post about, people have told me that I should write a tv show about her lol.

4. Listen in on other people's conversations and then rudely interrupt them and then give them unwanted advice they don't want to hear and then yell at them for ignoring you.
  •  There is this random creepy guy that fucking lives near my house and everytime I wait for the bus or on the bus I'll be either with my friends or on the phone and he fucking just interrupts us to try to join in on our conversations like he's our new best friend, its really annoying and he's a fucking 70 year old man. He freaks out if we tell him to go away or if we don't say anything "your parents are pieces of shit because they didn't teach you idiots any manners" yeah I freaked out at this psycho a few times and tried to call the cops and I've seen him arrested a few times and kicked off buses, skytrains and the seabus. Steve told me he's seen him in the hospital psychiatric ward a few times too lol. In general I think its a asshole-y thing to do, fuck off and listen to music nobody wants advice from a stranger unless they ask for it.

5. Wal-mart (especially North Vancouver's Wal-mart)
  • This happened to me a few months ago. I have one item in my hand (a box of tampons lol) and I've been waiting in the express lane for about 10 minutes because the cashier decides to have a long conversation with her friend that is buying 3 items (there's one other person ahead of me) Another cashier turns on their light and waves me over, I point to myself and say "are you talking to me?" and he says yes. So I start heading over there when the cashier I was in the line for in the beginning freaks out at me and says "You have to wait in the line with everyone else!" and I say "oh the guy over there waved me over" and then the security guard that was standing near the door comes up to me and says "nice try" I just got so fucking angry and the cashier that waved me over said "I waved her over" he was in shock lol the other cashier says "she has to wait like everyone else" to which the guy said "she was waiting she was after this woman". I was so pissed off, I waited 10 minutes in line for two people to buy 3-5 items each but the cashier decides to have a conversation with her friend instead of doing her job and then freaks out because some other cashier waved me over.. I was so angry I just left my one item and went somewhere else to buy it, I wanted to punch that security officer in the face for coming up to me like that, but he was like 65 years old and fat so.. yeah lol. But I am never shopping there ever again.

6. Go to a bus stop and push and shove people out of the way to get on the bus first even though you just arrived before the bus did.
  • HOLY SHIT lol ok, Me and Ashley were in Hawaii and we were waiting for a bus for about 30-40 minutes, there's a nice line going and everything seems to be in order and not in chaos. Then the bus comes and a random Korean family pushes everyone out of the way and says "ken-chun-ah, ken-chun ah!" they keep screaming it at each other while they were pushing and buttered EVERYONE and made it onto the bus, and I'm like no its not alright! you can do that in Korea but not here WTF!!!!!!!! everyone was so pissed off and they knew it would piss people off too, its not like they weren't going to get a seat anyways and I don't see why they think they have a right to do this! bah! why so inconsiderate!?!
 Yep I was really angry lol

7. Get your friend to pay for dinner and then order as much food as possible or order the most expensive items.
  • A few times my friends have taken me out to dinner because I've bought them something or let them borrow a few dollars but I always feel guilty when they do because I feel like they don't really owe me anything. I treated a friend to dinner a few months ago because I borrowed like $20 from him because I didn't have any cash on hand. He knew full well how much I owed him and he said "instead of giving me the $20 why don't we just go out and have a small lunch and you can pay?" I said ok and we went to a restaurant we go to often and we usually order the same thing (sandwich and soup that comes to about $15 per person) but he decides that day that he wants a pitcher of hard lemonade, 3 appetizers, soup and sandwich, a dessert as well as an extra entree to take home for dinner later. I was so angry, I didn't want to say anything because he freaks out over these things WTF. I know his situation with money is not so great these days but he also knows that mine isn't either. This was the first time he ever did it and I told him a few days later that I wouldn't be doing that anymore and that from then on we'd be paying for whatever we order ourselves and that I would just give him the cash instead he says to me "if you offer to pay then you should pay instead of making up excuses for others to pay for you" I was like fuck you! didn't talk to him for a month LOL.

8. When your friend goes on vacation demand a gift or give them money to buy you something you can easily get online.
  • Every time I go on vacation my friend says to me "oh what are you going to buy me?" or "I'll give you money so you can buy me X" and it always pisses me off, I'll probably buy you something anyways but you shouldn't expect it, I want to relax when I'm on vacation. When I went to Korea in the summer my friend wanted me to get him some random stuff from there and converted money before even asking me. I was pretty pissed off because not only did he not ask me first and had converted the money (therefore he assumed I would just do it), I have to go out of my way during my vacation to find the store that sells the products he wanted and sacrifice luggage space for him -__-' I mean I didn't pay $1500 to travel halfway across the world to buy you stuffed animals and stationary >.< plus he could've bought all of that stuff online for the same price.

9. Talk down to people because you are older than them but not smarter
  • I'm basically applying this to how Asian culture is. Just because you are older than the person doesn't mean that you are smarter and can fucking boss them around. I mean I would think we have passed all of that stupid crap by now but no, stupid Asian pride! get over yourselves! There are tons of super smart, successful people in the world who have accomplished so much. But stupid Asian people talk/look down to them (the Asian ones) because some of them are young, wtf! like my mom for example, my friend has her own successful business that she runs and she's 23 and my mom talks to her like she's deaf or has a mental handicap, its ridiculous! I no longer bring my friends home. For some reason I can never see Asian people overcoming this because they'll just say "its how it works in China/Korea/Vietnam or wherever and its been the culture for X amount of years" and its like ok you can keep your close mindedness to yourself and not evolve like everyone else. Yes I understand its rude not to be nice to your elders but when you haven't accomplished as much as the person your doing it to has then shut the fuck up you've done nothing in your life. Housewives don't count because anybody can fucking poop out a baby and many women work and take care of the family, I find them lazy.

10. Only talk about your own problems and refuse to listen to advice
  • My friend always invites me out to go have a coffee with him or dinner/lunch but whenever we go out he only talks about himself and how his life sucks and when I try to steer the conversation to something totally different he manages to turn it around on himself. I've told him a few times that he's narcissistic and sometimes conceited >.< which he just says "bitch please" I even sometimes talk about my problems and he'll just be like "oh it'll be fine, doesn't matter" and then turn the focus back on him its like SERIOUSLY? and usually he'll ask me what he should do and I try to give him advice but he just refuses to listen to it or tells me its wrong, WHY ASK IF YOU REFUSE TO LISTEN!? 

So do you do any of these things? or know anybody that does? This is definitely the tip of the iceberg probably will do another one in 2013 LOL.

Holidays

Ah.. Christmas where to begin?

When Ashley and I were little we would hear so much about Christmas from our teachers and classmates at school as well as movies/tv shows. Every year we would put out soy milk and Chinese almond cookies for Santa hoping he would come and give us the gifts we wrote him for. We would stay up late hoping that we could see him... then our mom would yell at us for wasting soy milk and almond cookies lol.

We always had the shittiest Christmas, the only thing we would ever look forward to during the holidays was getting time off school and sleeping in. On Christmas day our parents friends would come over and give me and my sister a gift as well as something for my parents. Me and Ashley would open the gifts and get super excited because we actually got gifts on Christmas, we would play happily with our gifts for a few days until my mom and dad would take them away, re-wrap them and give them to their other friend's kids as Christmas gifts because they were too cheap and lazy to go out and buy their kids gifts (they did this a lot with a lot of our stuff, I miss my bear lol)

Every year after that we never really had a good Christmas, when we got a little older my dad gave me and Ashley $50 to go buy a game we could get on our PC, I remember Ashley getting roller coaster tycoon (best game ever!) and sim city for me. I don't think I've ever had a good christmas, we never had anything good because my mom would freak out over the smallest things or just hurl insults and me (call me stupid and crazy and fat) and when I would ignore her and be super pissy at her and she would be like "why are you being so mean to your mother? it's Christmas!" WTF right?

This year is probably not really an exception, Steve's mom decided to come and stay for a month at our house O_O (last minute) thanks for ruining my time with Steve! he's probably going to move out in February anyways and I had so many things planned for us to do and its like I shouldn't plan anything from now on because people just can't let me have something, I just don't know what to do anymore.

I can't think of a good Christmas I've had without either my parents ruining it or now Steve and his family ruining it.

I know some Korean families don't celebrate Christmas anyways (read about it here) so I get why his mom is coming because its not really a family holiday for them but still I want to spend some time with him, so I guess I'm not going to go on any dates (not like we did anyway!) we can't do it without her hearing us LOL, and I don't get to cook what I want either because she's going to fill the whole refrigerator with nasty Korean stuff that neither me or Steve will eat! I mean its so infuriating that I have my own place and I can't voice out what I want to say without some unreasonable person(s) freaking out at me. Steve's going to Calgary for like a week in February and its not like he's going forever! why the fuck do you have to stay a fucking month? I hope her plane explodes!

Nothing good ever happens to me.

Lifestyle Changes

When I was young I was super skinny, it wasn't until I was in grade 9/10 when I started to gain weight. I wouldn't eat much at school because my mom would always give me crappy lunches that were half rotten. When I got home I would eat so much! it was usually noodles lol and then I would take a nap because I would have no energy from not eating all day and walking home >.< hence weight gain!

Right now I don't think I've ever been this fat in my whole entire life LOL. I'm 132 pounds and 5'1 O_O short people get chubby fast! lol the weird thing is that its only in my mid-section too... I would rather get fat all over so it looks even! I look fucking pregnant! LOL

A few months ago an old co-worker of mine ran into me and Steve and he pointed right to my stomach and said "boy or girl?" I was like WTF (yeah this guy has social problems, its one of the reasons why he got fired) but yeah that pissed me off! (he's like a 45 year old man)

Anyways since I've been at Ashley's place I've been losing some weight, Ashley and her husband have been going to the gym so much that now that I'm visiting I'm going with them, its good to have encouragement but I'm worried about when I go home what will I do then? lol

I guess my goal weight would be 100 pounds, so I have to lose about 30 pounds! O_O lol is that reasonable? I guess it would be for my height plus I want to tone up! let's see how it goes

 I guess it doesn't really help that I'm wearing sweats.. lol

Oh boy I need a haircut!

I guess a month from now I should show you guys some progress (or lack of progress)

It doesn't help when you have super hot Asian girl friends who are so slim and I'm the fat one out of the group O_O and none of them fucking work out either!! no fair! lol

I really want to start eating healthier too but we'll see how that goes, I really want a lifestyle change since my family is prone to getting diabetes it'll be good to have a healthy lifestyle anyways in case I do get it one day. I hope you guys can give me some good tips! and wish me luck! :D

Hawaii - Final Days

Wahooo! back in Seattle!

Before we left Hawaii we went to a Luau and went to a cool Ranch!

Paradise Cove:
 There were tons of people

 Lots of Activities to do
This guy is apparently the fire dancer as well as the Polynesian tattoo drawing guy lol
His tattoos are amazing!

 Hula Dancers

Gorgeous sunset

The luau was good but I would suggest going with more than one person, it seems so awkward sitting with a whole bunch of strangers and eating quietly lol. The food was alright, its what you would expect from buffet food.

The show was pretty fun, the hula dancers and fire guy were the best and holy! they are good singers lol.

Kualoa Ranch:

 Tons and tons of activities to choose from!

 This was our off-road adventure
The gentleman took us around the island and told us some history of the area
and pointed out some places worth seeing

 If you sit in the back like me its extra bumpy lol

 This ranch is huge!
They even filmed some movies there

 Great views from the ranch!

One of the workers pointed out an area that we were close to where apparently thousands of hammerhead sharks are born in O_O I wanted to go see but obviously I couldn't lol

 Petting zoo has a huge turtle!

 Huge fat rabbit!

 You can feed and pet these guys of course!
 Most of the animals are sleeping though

 Goat
 There are tons of roosters everywhere!

 Holy shit I've never seen an ostrich in my life and its fucking massive
This one was scary because it stares at you!

We also went on atvs and horseback riding. Ashley got a massive horse that liked to bite other horses LOL. I was so nervous on mine, he kept sighing (if that makes sense) and kept stomping so I thought that it was pissed off lol. Couldn't really get any photos because they didn't allow bags and stuff...

The atv was the funnest activity we did! Ashley has the photos though pooooo! The fastest we could go was 12 MPH. I looked up an atv tour in Maui for me and Steve to go on one day which seems awesome!! I wanna goooooooooo! goes up to 30mph! and there's a water slide! I don't know how to swim though so that's probably not going to work.. lol

Also I suggest going on your own LOL not with a tour group because they give you a weird lunch lol I didn't enjoy it at all plus you can go on the atv for 2 hours and stuff! but if you want to experience tons of activities in a short period of time I suggest going on a tour thing.

**********

 Went out for dinner!
We saw this place a few times and there was always a huge line up for it and we were like what do they have there? so we decided to go try it :D

 Its super busy and cheap!

 Its handmade udon and self serve tempura! O_O

 Chefs at work, you can watch them make all the udon

 I got the Curry Udon and a prawn, squid and onion tempura :D :D :D :D
I like that these noodles were nice and soft and not chewy or hard just how I like it! :D

 This is Ashley's! was kind of more fishy so I didn't really like it lol

Ashley got this tempura egg thing O_O SO GOOD

The rest of the trip we didn't really do anything we shopped a little bit and that's about it. Hawaii was so expensive! Tip: if the place doesn't have prices on the menu outside don't eat there lol. I would probably go again but bring waaaaay more money lol and an emptier suitcase LOL just because I would fill it with nature republic stuff hahahaha. The hotel was in a really good location and was well kept, I guess I was expecting it to be more fancy since the lobby and the outside look so nice but at least it has very easy beach access and you can rent towels as well as use their own pool. Since being back my skin has cleared up so much! I'm also planning on getting waaay healthier.

Anyways! now that I'm back I can focus more on changing the look of this blog! I was going to do a giveaway but since nobody said nothing T_T lol I decided not to! POOO! come on guys be more vocal! >.< maybe I'll try to set one up again in the near future... >.<

Nature Republic: Snail Therapy 50 BB Cream SPF 30 #2


I'm actually doing make-up! O_O According to the sales girl this is one of Nature Republic's Top BB creams! I bought this bb cream after trying the one Ashley bought. We got it at an actual Nature Republic store!! I wish they had one in Vancouver >.< lol. We paid around $26.50, the price will probably go up because it was on promotion because I think the Nature Republic in Honolulu opened not that long ago.

I've used BB cream before by Skin79 but it made my skin kind of grey looking, maybe it was mine because I got it on Ebay and I think it may have been expired LOL, Oh well I paid like $12 for it.

So I didn't know that it had the sponge applicator already to go which I twisted it off by accident
but I got it back on

It also comes with a spare sponge so when you are cleaning one 
you can have another one ready to go!

Tadaaaa!

My Thoughts

If you've been reading my blog you will know that I don't wear make-up so this is totally new to me so I'm pretty excited lol but I have used a different bb cream before. What I like about this is that the sponge makes it so you have an even finish plus you can take the sponge off to clean it. I don't think it has any other benefits besides SPF, it doesn't really say whitening or wrinkle care... but I'm assuming it does wrinkle care because its snail therapy... somebody let me know!

I'll do an update on this post with bb cream on half my face but right now Hawaii is fucking up my skin LOL. My skin is horrible with heat and humidity so I'm totally breaking out right now and my skin is all red, I don't want to vacation anywhere hot ever again lol, I'd rather be bundled up than sweating my butt off.. bleh should only vacation during fall/winter/spring lol, although I did have fun snorkeling.. bah! stupid skin! wtf!

Where Can You Get This Product?

I've seen this on sale on Ebay for $30 plus shipping. They also sell it on Amazon for about the same price. I know Sasa has like 3 nature republic products and this isn't one of them.. poop. If you live in Honolulu lucky you! there's a Nature Republic here! plus its super affordable! also don't buy from Yesstyle, they jack up the price so much! bah!

Hawaii Day 3 - Hanauma Bay

We didn't get into Hawaii's waters until Day 3!
Ashley paid for this group tour thing to take us to Hanauma bay.

 O_O How gorgeous!

 The water is so clear!
Not like in Vancouver where its dirty brown/green lol

 The day before was pretty cloudy so I'm kind of glad that it was sunny
(I got tan T_T lol) but it was pretty windy which sucked
I had to stick a cotton thing in my eye because there was so much sand in there LOL

 There were tons of families there who went snorkeling like we did

 Any food you bring will attract these guys, they will literally circle you...

 We brought chicken nuggets lol, the only food you can get is at the snack bar 
near the entrance to the bay so bring your own food!

 So clear! and clean! I think I drank at least a cup of sea water LOL

 On the way up

The bay does have some amenities but you have to pay (obviously) like lockers, you don't have to pay for the shower thing and there's also bathrooms, you can take this little car ride to the top of the pathway too if you want but you have to pay $1 but we chose to walk.

 O_O coral! you have to watch a 8 minute safety video thing before going into the bay

You know your on vacation when... lol
No, the sea water dried out my hair and skin pretty bad 
so I had a hair mask in as well as a pack mask.

When we came back I had to use the bathroom and my bathing suit bottom was super filled with sand LOL so there's sand all over the bathroom now hahahaha.

If you choose to go to Hanauma bay I would suggest going there alone as in not with a tour group but renting a car and going there and buying your own snorkel gear. If you go with a group you have to go back by a designated time which I felt pretty limited to plus I don't like keeping an eye on the clock while at the beach. Other than that it was so nice!

I think today we're going shopping! WOOOOO running out of money.. lol

Hawaii - Day 2

We didn't have anything really planned for day two... basically head to the beach and explore a bit more. But before we begin day two I have to finish off day 1 lol.

**********

On our first night Ashley was craving some sushi, so we went out exploring to try to find a place. There was a place located on the strip that had the menu sitting outside but not the prices (big mistake right there) but we decided to give it a try anyways since we couldn't find another one...

 I took one of their business cards to warn all of you!
This is their location!

This is the name of the restaurant.
Furusato Sushi

Biggest rip off ever!

 4 slices of beef with some radishes for $5

 This was $12 O_O

 This was $27 or so... DA FUCK!
All together it was $60  O_O
We should've just walked out...

 We also discovered the Nature Republic!!!!! OMG! lol
Its like a block away from our Hotel!! AHH I have to buy more stuff
Who is the guy on this bag? lol

There were some random tourists that walked into the shop after us and we overheard a guy saying "is that a guy or a girl?" LOL Aww


We also took advantage of the 24 hour gym :D
There was absolutely nobody in there.

Finally onto Day 2!

 The main floor of our hotel is really nice

 It does have a Homey feel if that makes any sense...

 The outside of our hotel
decorated for christmas

 glimpse of the beach

 Kind of a cloudy day to go to the beach, it was nice and warm out
I actually prefer the cloud because I don't want to get tan LOL

 Panorama of the beach

 We were going to go to the cheesecake factory for dinner but decided not to because
we found this random okonomiyaki restaurant.
This is the Tofu Salad
 We also got this special okonomiyaki dinner and it came with these appetizers
a citrus octopus salad with veggies, edamame and some beef tataki

 Our Okonomiyaki!
Has octopus, beef and shrimp in it! I can't remember what else was in it
It was pretty good but I wished it wasn't so thick.

 Took a trip to the beach earlier that day
I've never been to such a nice beach before.

The beaches in Vancouver are filled with rocks and sticks plus I'm paranoid that
there would be needles or broken glass everywhere so this was so nice.

I wish our beaches were like this in Vancouver :( lol

This random man in a sort of see-through bathing suit came up to us and started talking about the most random stuff lol. Me and Ashley thought he was some random creeper but then he told us he had a boyfriend and we were like ok he's not creepy anymore lol. He kept talking about his boyfriend and told us some tips about eating in Hawaii so I was glad we got a chance to talk to him lol. Plus I randomly drooled when I was talking to him LOL because I was eating a throat lozenge that made my mouth all numb hahaaha.

I would totally love to come back sometime next year and bring Steve. Hawaii feels like a place made for couples plus I know he'd love to do a lot of the water activities :D but I think I would want to go to a less touristy area but I definitely would have to come back to Honolulu for Nature Republic lol and also rent a car.

I still have to figure out where The Face Shop is, I think that's going to be our Wednesday activity plus shopping and I found a Japanese hair salon I want to try.
