three more days...

I keep on saying it, three more days of classes, and each of those is really a half day. I find it hard to believe that I have lived in Honolulu for almost a year, and that I’ll be leaving in a little over two weeks. I have lived in a few places and every time I have mixed feelings about leaving. Not so much this time, Oahu is going to be left behind me. Don’t get me wrong there are a lot of great things about living here. The weather is perfect just about all the time, several of the world’s best beaches are here, excellent restaurants, good sushi, shopping Ala Moana (which I can walk to).

There are some really bad things here too. It seems to me that there are less people on the mainland that jump in front of cars, I have it happen almost weekly. The attitude here, in general, is one I just don’t like. There are a lot of great people here, but there are that many more ass holes too. The beaches end up too crowded, which I guess really is the thing with any great beach. I’m not a bog fan of mopeds either, nr am I a big fan of pick ups with large wheels. That is something that I have not been able to figure out, there are people here who have the huge pick ups, when everything is a little smaller.

I recommend Oahu to visit (along with Maui and the Big Island) and I am sympathetic to many of the issues that Hawaiians face, but I don’t want to live here. One year was enough, Cassie and I will stick to the Big Island or Maui from here on out.
