Oahu Vacation – November 14-19, 2012

So I finally had a chance to come home on vacation and well of course I had my camera. So this will be a documentation of that vacation. I must say that where I have moved to really really lacks color so I was excited to finally put my camera to use again. Also, sorry to all the peeps that would have expected me to cover an event while I was down there but I really was just looking to relax. Maybe next time. So lets start this Journey.

It was a long drive to LAX from Victorville, but when I got there and on the plane I was pleasantly surprised. I got to ride on Hawaiian Airline’s new Airbus. Talk about awesome! I really wish I paid some attention to when I was choosing a seat so I would have been more prepared for the long flight. You see that each seat has a Touchscreen in them, but right next to them is a USB slot. Before the flight I loaded up my phone to have a good amount of videos for me to watch on the flight over. Hawaii Five-O’s episode could not have been more timely for this flight as it was a “terrorist” episode. Couldn’t help but laugh at that. Anyways, what I did not know was that the screens are able to interact with a USB drive. I probably could have loaded all those videos to a thumb-drive and watched them on a bit bigger screen. Oh wells, next time. Also, no it didn’t recognize my phone as a thumb-drive, but it did keep it charged the whole flight so that was awesome.

Another surprise was the lunch! WOW!!! Grilled Chicken, Brown Rice, Peas & Carrots, Chocolate Cake, Salad? ON AN AIRPLANE!!! Almost unheard of now a days. Thank you for being so Awesome Hawaiian Airlines.

 This was a nice sight to see, Rain. Something as simple as rain made me so happy. Where we are now, it has rained maybe five times. I never realized something so simple would have been missed so much by me. This was also in Ewa Beach and the brand new shopping center they were building.

Soon after landing though and dropping off all my stuff at my parents place, I was ushered off to dinner. My brother chose the spot so Hooters in Aloha Tower we went. Since I had been on a plane for so long and then driven all over the creation, well lets just say I had to “go.” So go I went and to my surprise I found something pretty fucking hilarious. Well I thought it was hilarious.

While waiting for my brother, I saw two beautiful sights still around. The Falls of Clyde and amazing sunsets.

I also started using what I thought would be a catchy hashtag on Instagram called #hawaiinoneedfilter. Well it really doesn’t need it at all.

After dinner my dad wanted to go and see One Drop playing at Mai Tai’s so we went to Ala Moana. Oh how I have missed this mall. I never would have thought that after working that mall for almost five years that I’d miss it that much. The holiday decorations were in full effect there as well so that was a treat as well.

Center Stage was snowing like they have been doing for the last couple years with their soapy snow. If only the people knew what we do with those foam cannons during certain show :-P LOL

One Drop started playing at around 10 so it was going to be a great show from then on. Only thing was that it was getting late for me as I had already been doing a lot of shit!! My ass needed some sleep so when they took their first break we talk story with them then took off and went home. Good time though to hear live local music again.

HALLOWEEN 2010!!!

Wow this year was crazy still. I was kinda doubtful because, well lets face it Halloween fell on a Sunday and lots of people needed to go work the next day LOL. This fact includes me :) but putting that aside I’m very happy that I went out last night.

Again this year I did the same thing like last, start at one end of Kalakaua and work my way down to the Hyatt where I’d be posted all night. Lets just say the street was fun and the party was off the chain. I noticed this year that there was a lot of popularity in Johnny Depp characters (Alice in Wonderland mostly), political figures, sexy lingerie , and for some odd reason Jersey Shore. There were quite a few Snookies. Oh yeah and lots of Lady Gagas too LOL. It was all kinda hilarious.

Oh yeah and big ups to the promoters who decided they’d all be the Blue Man Group. It was freakin awesome LOL.

Looking to do more here & The Last 2 Dramas @ Stage

So lately I been trying to think of something else for me to post up here rather than just party pics. Before I was talking about things that interest me, but I’m no news writer, I’m just a guy who is going to tell you my opinion. So now I’m thinking, “well what’s wrong with my opinion?” So I think I’m just going to try and write as much as I can here about stuff I’m doing or opinions I have. LOL I hope you all like it and can bare with me on it. I mean it is my blog right I should be able to do what ever I like right?

Anyways here the photos from the last Dramas @ Stage in the Design Center. As we say goodbye to summer we say goodbye to our summer party. However, don’t worry the Vertical Junkie crew got you covered with “FRIDAY NIGHT BACKYARD BBQ!” LoL I love the concept and here’s the flyer.

Well here’s the photos:
