aloha everyone,,,,,,
i stumbled onto this great site. what was i googling for?,,,,,,,,,,,oh yeah, a place that sells enka cds. anyway, this seemed like such a nice place to be, i decided to register. nice thing about a forum is you can get a bagillion members and you won't get rush hour traffic or have to worry about donald trump building condos that'll dwarf the new ones you already have.
about me.........lemme see. i'm a sansei AND i guess i'm a kotonk. that's what my wise @ss uncle used to call me. born in nyc, but all my family on both sides are from oahu or maui my family moved BACK to oahu when i was 2yrs, where i grew up in nuanu and manoa valleys and went to island paradise elementary school. i remember grabbing crawfish in the river behind our home in manoa,,,getting stuck with a pencil by a crummy little kid, and standing in the corner because i stuck my leg out and tripped the teacher,,,,,,all in the 3rd grade. it was a memorable year.
we eventually moved back to the states where i've been my whole life.
i'd visit oahu a few times but the experiences were of sad memories of relatives passed........so i stopped going back,,,too painful.
but i've "come back" of sorts. i'm over the sadness(sometimes). i know oahu is where my family will ALWAYS be. i visit now for periods that last longer every year. i go to oahu to perfect the art of relaxing. don't do anything,,,just sit, relax, and stroll. i stroll a lot, coming from nyc. waikiki to chinatown,,,are you kidding?,,,that's only 3 miles! ono foods for lau lau?,,,the walk won't burn off enough calories,,,i think i'll walk to young's. i heard they make great lau lau. about the only "non relaxing" thing i do is exercise at 24hr fitness...awesome gym. i've never seen such a diversity of age groups so buffed, from teens to 70 yr olds,,, men and women. and i'm talkin' BUFFED,,, not getting on a bike and going 2 mph.
enough about me. now i'm gonaa read everyone's profile
thanks and mahalo,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,milt

if we had done what milt said, we'd get the "whack whacks" not from auntie lynn of course, but from them nuns. either with the ruler (the metal side on the knuckles) or we'd have to go and kneel on the cement. i was a quick learner
, not. when i was in high school, i'd forge my mother's johnette hancock and get away without having to serve detention. she never knew until many years later.
