Hey everybody, whatsup? These boards are sweet, and everybody seems real nice. I found my way here doing some research for phone service on Oahu.
The reason I'm posting is to get some(more) local help. This summer my hapa girlfriend and I are moving to Oahu. We currently reside in Tulsa. My gf was born in Honolulu and lived in Kaneohe and Kauai until the age of 7(when she moved here). We have been dating for 4 years and intend on marriage. We both had a general interest in moving to Hawaii, mine from the Deftones dvd, and her's from the natural bond that all hawaiian's have with the aina. A few years ago her mother passed and they brought her back to Hawaii. Since we graduated highschool(2 years ago) we visited Oahu twice on our own. When we stayed, her family(aunties/uncles), everyone was so kind I fell in love with them all. Ever since then we think about them all the time, and we talk about them all the time(they are so hard to get a hold of). We want to be close to them and also want to be close to my gf's mom.
We have been researching everything internet/books/asking family/etc. We know about the difficulties and struggle about living in Hawaii. I was so afraid about finding work that I declared myself a Japanese major(just so I can hold at least 2 pt jobs, if so blessed) and I am about to graduate with an AA in the language. Being so young and having to start a new life, we are willing to do anything to complete this goal. All we are wanting to bring to Hawaii is our love, not our selfishness. So with that in mind...
Anybody have any good advice for this malihini?
