aloha.

important social commentary
and by "important," i mean, "irreverent." and by "social commentary," i mean, "Cartoons."
i have laughed non-stop since i checked out strongbad's cartoons on homestarrunner.com. you should definitely watch the "teen girls squad" because of what's her face. AND so and so.

who loves caffeine?

so this is my way of keeping up with my ohana all over the place. sneak a peek into the aloha lifestyle! my awesome friends Joel Bellucci, Katie, and Kris took these pictures, and they're technically theirs- so please respect that! but enjoy the views all the same.
I had a July 5 picnic in Nalo! Here's Katie, me, and Kris on my beach, which is the best beach in the world. I also have the best friends in the world! And they are also quite attractive.
Libby and I are stylin' in Nalo. And we are both brown.
And here's Derek! Derek, Kiri, Gabe, and Anne paddled up from Kailua, which is the next town over. Talk about an entrance! I, on the other hand, tripped on my own feet and landed on the beach.
  This is a picture from my latest trip to Maui with the girls- that's G, me, Katie, and Kris on the Road to Hana.
  This is my beach in Waimanalo. In the distance you can see the Koolau Mountains.
  I live half a block up and about a mile from this particular location. Waimanalo and Bellows beaches are home to Oahu's longest stretch of white sand beach! And there are almost no tourists on this beach, either. I'm surprised when there are more than 20 people on the entire stretch.
  This is Eternity Beach, a few miles from my house. I'm scared of it.
  This is the view from the top of my favorite mini-hike at Makapuu point. This is Rabbit Island, or Manana. It's a bird sanctuary. The two small islands at the far left are the Mokes.
  I go here after work once or twice a week. In the midground you can see Makai Pier, which is where HURL maintains the Pisces IV and Pisces V submersibles.
  This is the view looking down from the top of Makapuu Point. It's also what you see when you fall off the wall when rock climbing.
miscellany
I am going to grad school at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science!

I have, on average, seven keys on my keychain at any given time!

Anyone have a piano I could borrow?

You should try listening to Turin Brakes, Mason Jennings, Patty Griffin, Modest Mouse, and Donavon Frankenreiter.

My current best friend is: the FOOD network.

I currently work for the Hawaii Undersea Research Laboratory. We went to the Northwest Hawaiian Islands and now I'm working on the seamount project.

Don't forget to buckle your seatbelts.

I am presently learning how to skateboard and how to rock climb.

I enjoy drinking water, especially out of my Nalgene bottle.

Who invented Oreos? They are so tasty.

My back up career: tshirt screener.
My back up back up career: big rig truck driver.
And if all else fails:nomadic glass blower.


Frollyotl wants to hear from you, but please don't spam her. She has already refinanced her aquarium at a lower rate, and she doesn't need any prescription medications at new, lower prices than ever before. She just likes it when people say aloha!


social debilitation
They discovered a new volcano in Antarctica. Yea! Volcanoes!
