New school year.

The classroom is actually clean.

Some of the kids seem interested in listening.

This is starting to feel like a familiar occurance.

Every time I hear Bush speak, I try to hear the Empire March from Star Wars, but then it morphs into clown music.

I think I ought to worry.

My wrist is working again, but still kind of tender.

Spent last night in a jam session at my cousin's in Palolo -- I could only play my ukulele for about 30 minutes before my hand started to stiffen up.

Still, it's good to be able to use the hand again. Someday, someone will design a cast that doesn't cause massive stink smell underneath, though.

If you could have dinner with any person from any time in history, who would it be?

I think Queen Liliuokalani for me -- I would want to thank her for loving her people so much.

It's weird getting all the news about the election out here.

In my whole life, I don't recall any candidate for President ever caring enough to speak to Hawai'i. Sure, part of that is that the Democrats have no chance of ever losing the state in that kind of race (we did elect a Republican governor, but she's not a Bushie kind of Republican).

I'll admit, I know little about Hawaii-specific political issues.

BTW, I'm happy to add you as a friend, but I've got a question and a caveat:

Question: why? Just curious.

Caveat: I don't post here much any more (in my journal almost none, in groups more rarely than I did). If you're really interested in what I have to say about myself for some reason, you'd do better to check out my livejournal.

Many mahalos to Abra for another set to dream about... love

School will start up soon -- I am conflicted.

I love teaching. I even love working with the teens although they sometimes make me very glad to not have kids of my own.

I am conflicted because I worry about what I can really accomplish. My kids have so much stacked against them. So many...

Yes, I think it is. If just one of them makes it and changes the world, it will all be worth it. And if you don't who will?

I just commented here.

And I realized I never even thought about it.

My whole life, I have never been anywhere that wasn't in the islands. Not even for a vacation.

Some days I regret that.

Most days I do not.

He Hawai'i Au.

I know this is basically Stormy's term, but I was wondering if anyone knew what a "piss slut" is?

I finally could not stand it yesterday and went surfing anyway -- that's right, I wrapped my arm up to the elbow in a barbage bag and taped it down with duct tape.

I lost an interesting ring of hair from my arm when I...
