i went, i saw, i remembered i love...

What a lovely time i had on this vacation. it was so refreshing to be with family and with my real self. its funny how when i go out from this place, i feel a different me take shape... its a "me" that i am comfortable with, and am encouraged to know. she strengthens me and brings new light to the world. i wish she weren't so afraid of THIS world... in any event, i thought i would take advantage of the "bloggers world: where real thoughts are given without holding back (hopefully)".

first, i went to maui to be a bridesmaid in my friends wedding! it was great to be in that beautiful country, swimming everyday!


ooooooooh...

she sure was beautiful!

ahhhhhhh....




when i needed a breather from the bridal party-ness, here's what i found!

wowowow.

oh maui, i miss you already... i will see you again, one day!

We really had a great time. We all relaxed and caught up and rolled around in our red impalla. it was ridiculous really. we got lost IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD late one night wanting ice cream, and the plans failed. we turned around and headed home. we got fried together snorkeling at some rich fancy hotel and saw lots of crazy cool fish. we shopped, we laughed--oh did we laugh--and just let the island take control. oh, let me not forget to tell you that we loved hearing Laura's rendition of Mt. Aleakala... and the locals LOVED teaching her bad slang. she's just, what should i say... um. super gullible? yes. we love her. we loved it all, really.

cheers!
