Volleyball, Doodoo Water, and the Waterman Challenge!

Thanks dad for the free volleyball tickets!  It was a 'real' date night for Ryan and I, since the only dates we go on are in the water!  :)  That was actually the first Wahine Volleyball game that I've ever attended!  Weird yeah?  I went to the school for 5 years and only after I graduate I go to the game!  Those girls are really good!

Funny story:  We showed up at 5pm, not knowing that there were two games that night, and saw UC Irvine and Saint Mary's playing.  We were so confused!  We totally thought my dad gave us free tickets to a non-UH game!  We even got up and left!  But we saw so many people wearing green walking into the stadium that we stopped to think about it again!  We checked the website and UH was playing, but at 7pm!  We rushed back to the entrance and luckily the guy remembered us and let us back in!  :)  UH won!

Another day of surfing!  Except, the sewers in Manoa leaked into the Ala Wai and there were signs all over that said to stay out of the water.  There were so many people in the water!  Ryan wanted to go too, so we surfed in doodoo water!  Lukily there were no floaters!

Ryan hard at work at the Waterman Challenge at UH!

Working REALLY hard!  :)

Picture Perfect!

It's been really flat all around the island, but I've been able to find some small, fun waves to practice nose riding!   I hope to find some more perfection today!!!

Here's one of my latest paintings, of waves of course, because that's all I've been dreaming about!   I think I'm gonna add in a surfer on the first wave, maybe hanging ten!  :)

Andy is Back!

Billabong Pro Tahiti 2010:

Andy Irons beat Kelly Slater in the semi-finals, and then went on to the final to beat CJ Hobgood!

Also I was watching some longboarding clips on YouTube, and found out that Nalu likes surfing too!!!  :)

Stoken out at DH!

Diamond Head was the only spot with decent waves today!  It was so much fun!!!!!  I stoked it out today!  :)

Lazy cat days...

Cardboard Brawl

My friend is getting married, so he wanted to have a get together before his wedding.  The event included a cardboard brawl!  Me and Ryan faced off with our custom cardboard armor and noodle swords!  It was really fun and we battled for five minutes!  The goal was to hit the most targets off your opponent by the end of the five minutes.  Ryan barely won.....just joking, he beat me up!  :)

  

Go Waipio!!!!!

Yesterday the little leaguers from Waipio won the world championship!!!!!  GO HAWAII!!!!  They won by the mercy rule, 10-0, against Texas.  Right now I'm watching them play Japan for the international title!  They score now is 2-1, Japan, top of the 5th.  Hopefully our little boys can pull it off!  It brings me back to my softball days, when my team used to play in the championships!  :)
