Leid in Hawaii
As most of you probably know, that is the common joke here. A Lei is one of those flower necklaces that you recieve here for any occasion really. So I got the honour o Leiing my family. Why does that sound so wrong?!
NEways, they are here. It was interesting borrowing a car and picking them up form the airport (where I had never driven on my own yet) the night before my big exam day and after having been sick for forever and having had a fever well, pretty much the whole week. (I know, what happened to: "I don't get sick, I just get injured", right? must have had something to do with going to L.A.)
So now half of them are here and today they are all out on a hike so I can finally catch up with myself. Really great to have them here and so much stuff I want to show them, but really I just want to go incognito for a week and crawl under my blankets and sleep. ahhh I got 9 hours last night! Imagine that! What a treat!
Had a very beautifull wedding from one of the girls on our team last night. she was absolutely gorgeous and I donlt think I've ever seen anything so well organised! It was quite interesting as it was a union between a guy from texas and an australian, so the dads had each other say certain "typical" frases so they would be accepted if they came to the others "home" and it was quite hilarious! Otherwise it was very traditional with a ceremony in the only church that loks like a church here in hawaii. (Guess I am spoiled coming from Europe?)
Today I finally had the peace of mind to pick up my guitar again and for the rest I'm just going to do some serious grocery shopping and maybe spend some time at the beach and then meet the fam at 6 for dinner. pfew.
Finally (I just thought this was funny), Iris, my good friend from.. hmm home? send me this e-mail on how it was discovered that vergetarians had a higher IQ. Well there! I feel really bad for all you meat eaters out there, LOL.
*back to playing guitar*
WOW I'm on a HOLIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
