| I know its been just forever but I happened upon this and thought it would be fun to keep a journal for myself even if no one will ever read it. School has been surprisingly tough this year what with all the college stuff as well as the fact that I didn't try for the first month and it really caught up with me. Fast. A lot about me has changed since I last wrote in this thing and I think for the most part, the change has been good. Today I tutored at Walker Jones Elementary School, across from Gonzaga. It was tough because most of the kids wanted no part of learning. Otherwise, it was a decent experience. We'll see how it goes as the week progresses.
Much love

| alright so here goes my hawaii/california recap. it was so much fun. i
even have some cool pictures. this has been eating at me since i got
back so here goes:
Friday 6/17
Got up at about 5 and went to the airport.We flew to San Diego where we
went to Balboa Park which is some kind of national park where we met
some family friends. then we went back to hotel, dropped off our stuff
and went out to dinner at this really good mexican restaurant.
Saturday 6/18
Went to this hiking place and this beach in La Jolla where we swam in
the ocean. Then we went to Dan and Susanna's wedding. it was a lot of
fun.

joe "dancing"

Sunday 6/19
Started our drive to Santa Barbara and stopped in Brea for breakfast
with my Grandpa. When we got to Santa Barbara, we went in my uncle's
pool and basically chilled.
 me, annie, joe, grandpa

ava (my cousin) on her really nice patio that is on top of the guest house
Monday 6/20
My dad, my uncle, and me went sea kayaking. Then we went in the pool
again and lay around until we went out to dinner at this place across
from Santa Barbara City College. it was good but i dont remember what
it was called.
Tuesday 6/21
Got up around 4:30 and drove down to LAX. We met most of the cousins,
aunts, and uncles at the airport. then we flew to hawaii. when we got
to hawaii, we drove to Kapalua where we were staying and wasted time
until they would let us in our condos. then we went to the pool and
cool stuff like that.
Wednesday 6/22 - Friday 6/24
Went to the beach, cool stuff like that. Not too much stuff though. Did a lot of snokeling as well.
Saturday 6/25
Decided to go on a day trip to Hana. On our way we stopped at all these
cool waterfalls and stuff. On our way back, my dad decided we should go
down this really cool road to this lookout place. When we got down
there, pretty much everyone was asleep except my dad (the
driver.) So my dad and mom got out to look. While my dad
was walking out to look closer he slipped on a rock (the worst part is
to get to all the waterfalls we went to earlier we had to climb on
really slippery rocks and do some pretty dangerous stuff) and broke his
leg in three places. We ended up spending the rest of the day in the
hospital until my uncle Charlie and uncle Dave came and got me, annie
and joe.

blue pool falls or something like that

these cool hidden falls that no one else was at
 me and annie at the extremely crowded blue pool falls. i guess i wasnt having fun

me, annie, and dad swimming at no name falls (hidden one)

annie and joe climbing to no name falls

according to the guide book :a great place to photograph a waterfall." so i did

joe as my dad was falling off to the right out of the frame
Sunday 6/26
Everyone but my dad went on a boat trip to Molokini, a small island
with "good" snorkeling (there were easily 2x the people than fish).
Then we stopped at Turtle Town on the way back and snorkeled there too.
There were some big old turtles.

joe and cousin kacey on the boat
Monday 6/27
Spent the day doing the same things I had done every other day all
trip, we went to the beach, the Ritz, and all this other cool stuff. At
night we went to a Luau and it was pretty cool.
Tuesday 6/28
A sad morning but still got to jump. Then we went to the airport. We
flew to LAX where we were supposed to have a short layover but instead
had about a 2.5 hour one. Then we flew to Dulles.
Wednesday 6/29
Arrived in Dulles and took a taxi home and got home at about 9 o clock.
Then i slept from 9:30 to 1. being on hawaiian time is a blower. (6
hours earlier)
A few things I left out are that I spent pretty much every hour in
Hawaii with my cousin Zack, there was a "complimentary shuttle" that we
took everywhere, we went to the Ritz-Carlton pretty much everyday to
use their workout room and steam room. It was great. Also, we found
these great rocks we could jump off into the ocean.

my dad's leg two days later on d.t. fleming beach
and last but certainly not least, the jumping rock:

all-in-all,
an amazing vacation.
thats really all you can say

| its been awhile. ive been at the pool pretty much everyday. its tight.
i leave for california tommorow. and then after like 4 or 5 days there
we fly with pretty much my entire family on my dad's side (he has 8
siblings) to hawaii. its gonna be awesome. but my swim team coach is
mad at me and my brother and sister cuz we're leaving right before the
first meet and without me there are only three 15-18 boys. which
probably will suck for them. anyways today will be a good day with all
the packing and chilling and sweet stuff like that.
later
who doesn't love santa barbara? i know i do.
