no betta way to kick start ur day when u find out someone kick started ur side mirror. When it happens the first time, u're like, nah b, just an accident so u just bend the mirror back in place. When it happens the second time and the glass in the mirror is shattered, u're like, shoots, person must have been off in a hurry to not leave a note. Fortunately tho the repair costs to replace the glass is only 20 bones so ure counting ur lucky stars. But then the day before u have to bring the car to the shop to get the glass replaced u step outside to see this:
now u start wondering who's grave did u piss on to get this treeee times in the past 2 months. 3 times in 2 months is beyond the realm of coincidence. But who'd wanna hack up my whip? What did Honda do to the world but release a line of environmentally friendly ultra low emissions vehicles that come a close second to hybrids and a third to walking? WhAteguan? I mean if u got beef wit somebody at least leave me a note on my windshield like the courteous sociopath in the I Know What You Did Last Summer series...cause i really dont know what i did last summer. Please tell me! Shoots so parts and labour now come out in the 200s which wont happen for the next few days until the get the necessary parts in. But now i be all paranoid thinking, what's the point in replacing da mirror if someone's just going to come up on it again? On days like today I wish i had a garage. This is what it sounds like when doves cry. Cue my music
So yeah a friend hooked me up to the best youtube link ever: A Band called MiniBosses, only musik they play are oldschool nintendo game themesongs, and they do em well. Brings back crazy memories. Here's one of them covering super mario bros 2 in all its glory. If ure interested, go look em up, they do up megaman, contra, mike tyson's punch out among other NES classics.
While i'm up here i might as well throw up a quick update with the goingons of island living. Had a chance to come back home for the american thanksgiving week and meet up with a few of my favourties (I'll be back again in a couple weeks). Ever since getting back to the island i've been living like a grandpa waking up at 6 and going to bed before 12 in order to get some morning surf action before school. Shoots there is no other feeling like being in the water at the crack of dawn and catching some early breaks and since it's so early not too many peeps are in the water with u, dont have to worry about lining up to catch the breaks. More just paddle out, catch the wave, paddle back, and repeat. And yeah man, for the first time in a while, i can make in time to McDicks to grab me a combo 2 (sausage and egg mcmuffin baby!). Shooots!
If u dont know already i split time right now between classes and doing school counselling at a hawaiian charter school and that's been a pretty big blessing just talking story with the kids and trying to help em navigate through tuff problems and issues. I'm close to getting a green light to teaching an elective up at the school which im pretty stoked about: IM going to be teaching music expression and creation on the turntables breaking down scratching, juggling and mixing for the keeds, which if u think about it, can be a really strong form of empowerment which allows a child to creatively express herself thru music. It's neato that that in itself can be regarded as a form of social work practice. So yeah, only thing i need to do is to get my decks flown over here, and pick me up serato so i wont have to buy any more records (instead i can hook up my laptop to the mixer and play my mp3s.
But jeah, life is alright down here. The temperature dropped recently...to 23 degrees. Don't hate. Appreciate. And come visit and i'll give u a free tour of the island living that is my life. Mahalos
