Today was a very very long day overall. I am still trying to get settled ino this new time zone. I woke up multiple times last night thinking I had been sleeping for forever and come to find out it was only 7 AM.
Today's events included site seeing- Pearl Harbor. And Lanikai beach which is absolutely beautiful. You drive through the center of the Island to get there which is completely mountainous and incredible. Words to describe how beautiful it was do not even exist. It was my first time in the ocean in who knows how long. It was lovely.

Right now I am a little sad though. It may be because I just watched Pearl Harbor but I suppose it may have more to do with some self reflection. I am worried, as always about some different things. I'm worried right now about school, and falling behind. And my job, and if I will even have one when I get back home. I took risks in both of these areas to take this much needed trip to Hawaii, but I've been finding more and more that the decisions that we make as adults now fall on our own shoulders, and the consequences are much more heavy when that is the case.
I don't think that I have always been the best at making decisions, especially crucial ones and ones pertaining to money. I hope that as I grow older and wiser I'll learn the right way to handle things. I hope that I will gain confidence in myself as well.
Tomorrow is Emily's, (Sarah's daughter) birthday party. She is going to be 6 this year and apparently Birthdays are a BIG deal here in Hawaii, it's a cultural thing. I'm excited because I know we are going to see dolphins and I've always wanted to touch one for myself. I think it will make for some great photos.
Hopefully everything is going to work out for the best and the rest of my trip will be well worth all of the trouble. That's all for tonight's post. Aloha.
