ALOHA!
Sorry I haven't updated in ... two weeks was it?  Internet was down, I was busy, and I went to HAWAI'I!!! Haha obviously with that aloha. But anyway... I hope everyone's summer has been good so far. I just totally fell in love with O'ahu. -sigh- Everyone there is so laid back. I wish I had pictures, but it loaded on my dad laptop. Il post some here as soon as I can. But in the meantime, here my awesome week away from OC---
SATURDAY 25 JUNE: We were at the airport pretty early and I saw Chrissy! So much excitement.  We both had the same flight, but different seating. We arrived at O'ahu at 2 pm Hawai'i time and 5 pm Cali time. Chrissy left with her grandma and sister and we checked into our hotel the Waikiki Beach Marriott. SOOO lovely! Our room had street and ocean view.  Then, we unpacked, and drove around for hours and looked for a place to eat. Then we slept kinda late. My dad says Hawai'i is looks a lot like the Philippines and the buildings are like Japanese inspired. Lol.
SATURDAY 26 JUNE: My dad wanted to visit Pearl Harbor so we did. I was in a slight bf (bitch fit) that morning because I think I literally got up on the wrong side of the bed. But, in the afternoon, It was better. It was hot yet extremely breezy. Really nice. The tour wasn't boring, but it was alright. Somewhat interesting. Then, once back at the hotel, we bought tickets to a luau for the coming day.
MONDAY 27 JUNE: HAPPY SWEET 16 TO ME!!! :happy: This has got to be the best birthday ever. Before I tell you, I just want to say a HUGE MAHALO TO:
Jainah: I got your text right when I turned my phone on. 
James: The most original birthday phone call ever! Much mahalo to you it was really nice! I need to give you a hug when I see you.
Chrissy: You called me like, everyday. Lol. I'm glad we travelled together! It was fun! But damn you for getting stay there a week longer. 
Spam: You called me right before the actual luau. Thx for calling! I love ya!
Steph: I LOVED LOVED LOVED the skirts. I'm wearing it right now! Much mahalo to you as well. 
Okay, I got up early and we left the hotel at about 9 am. My mom wanted to stop by a bakery on our way to pick up Chrissy (she thought we got lost because we were late picking her up). We picked her up and then on our way to the place, we stopped by this lookout on a mountain and it was extremely windy. I got kinda pissed because I just did my hair and it was flying into my lipgloss.  hehe. But anyway, after that, we passed a gorgeous beach (very little people and the water was actually blue) and then we arrived at the Polynesian Culture Center at about noon. I spent the best birthday there.
Once there, two really cute guys were greeting people with shell necklaces. Teehee. Then we went on this canoe ride and when we got off, we were on the sland of Hawai?and we learned some hula! That was fun. By the way, I am SO taking Polynesian dance this summer. Anyway, we just went to different slands?of Polynesia and saw some dances, and told us about their island and culture, and I tasted fresh poi (fresh is better). Speaking of dance, Chrissy and my gracious mother forced my to go up on stage TWICE (different places) to dance with the Polynesian dancers when they asked for volunteers. The first time, the guys on stage were so damn cute and?oh the embarrassment. The second time, it was even worse. The dancers said it was easy, but it was quite the opposite. It was so fast I couldn keep up. But it was fun. 
At 5 pm, we were at the luau. And here the BLONDE MOMENT: I saw that there were two other guys and two girls and a photographer greeting us with more leis and after I got off the phone with Spam, I told Chrissy, ey! Wee going to get laid again!?Of course I meant being graced with a lei. Then afterwards, I was like and hoped my parents didn hear that.
After the luau, there was an 8 pm show. Sort of like a finale for the day. It too bad there couldn be any flash photography. But I took pictures on my phone.  Then, It ended. I was sad.
Many of the people that work there are actually students at a nearby university, BYU. They get their education and housing for FREE. That is a good reason why I want to study there. Now I torn between Academy of Arts in San Francisco and BYU. BUT, the students pay for it by working at the center either as dancers, waiters, tour guides, etc. There are students there from Asia, New Zealand, America, Europe, and of course the islands.
But you know, it so crazy that probably 75% (I guessing) of the male students who work as dancers there are INCREDIBLY in shape. Almost all of them have such rock hard bodies yet not like those overly muscular body builders. DAMN they were fun to watch. And then they were really energetic and their accents?my gawd what a fantabulously kinky (lol joke on the kinky) way to spend my birthday. Thank you mother and father.
TUESDAY 28 JUNE: Still sad that the previous day is history. But we visited the Dole Plantation. My mom wanted to. Didn stay there long. I had yummy pineapple dole whip (kinda like ice-cream but no dairy). Then we drove by North Shore. We went to Waikiki beach for about ?hour then to the hotel pool for another ?hour. The beach was too crowded and icky. They put a wall there and I hated it. No waves.
WEDNESDAY 29 JUNE: Hm?I woke up later than usual. We went to the Diamond Head Crater. We took a LOOONG hike up the mountain/crater. It was fun though! It got really high and you could see all of Ohu. VERY picturesque. My brother got scared because of the height. Added enjoyment. Then, we went to go eat and went to the Ala Moana mall. It was outside, yet inside. OH OH! There are a TON of designer stores! Then, we picked up Chrissy and went to the beach for a while then stayed for hours at the pool. My bikini went from a pretty blue to white.  Then, we dropped her off kinda late at night.
THURSDAY 30 June: We had to go home. We arrived in LA at 6 pm Hawai time and 9 pm our time. So sad. Now I here?back in the stressful world.
Now for SOME photos! These are from my phone, so the ones with the people are kinda blurry. I had to zoom in.
The view from our hotel room! How gorgeous is that?!
One side oof the hotel... er inside view. Make sense? 
Night views from our room.
Polynesian Culture Center. On a canoe tour. Pretty yeah?
Sorry it's blurry. But if it were clear... I SWEAR he's really cute. I got to dance on stage with him too!
Another pretty waterfall
Canoe pageant. Can't really see their faces. The tree is in the way.
The night show after the luau.
View of O'ahu from the top of Diamond Head crater. Awesome place.
Well, that's some of them. Wish I had more and CLEARER ones of the people. My dad has some good ones but it's on his laptop. I'll get some of those up later.
Now, I'm still in Hawai'i mode. We're thinking of getting a house there for the summer and we better! I wanna go back...
ALOHA

Bloody Merlin... now it'll be typed, printed, and she will read it. I couldn't really wish for her anything positive on her day... I mean she's filthy rich AND she landed a movie role "on a whim"! What more could she want?
