Happy New Year

I enjoyed a wonderful Christmas and New Year's eve with family and friends in Los Angeles and flew back to Hawai'i on New Year's day.

...I'm VERY excited for 2011

Fall into Winter

Despite the stresses of the end of the semester I have been enjoying myself lately. A friend of mine made this video from a trip we took to a water reservoir last week.

...and can't wait to go home in a week!

Happy Thanksgiving

"If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, "thank you," that would suffice."
-Meister Eckhart

If you want to turn your life around, try thankfulness. It will change your life mightily."

Leftovers

My days have been so full lately I don't know what to do with myself when I get free time. Most of these are photos I took around the island during the past couple of weeks while shooting for work.

And I'm really excited for the temple to open.

Music...

2 Years

This week marks two years being home. It's hard to believe that I've now been back for as long as I was out. I miss you Chiapas & Tabasco.

7th Hole

The winter swells are finally beginning to arrive here on the north shore.

Been listening to this lately...

Stairway to Heaven

Stairway to Heaven (also known as the haiku stairs) is a hike on the island of Oahu which consists of 3,992 steps up the side of steep mountain. I climbed it my second time last week as a way to kick off the new semester of school.
