You know you're local when...

You're watching a History Channel documentary on rum-making and mistake a glass of dark-brown liquid for shoyu.

Mana'o o ka La 'Ekahi o Kekemapa o ka makahiki 2005

'A'ole au maopopo i ka nana 'ana i ka ki'i'oni'oni 'o Ka Liona A Me Ke Kupua A Me Ke Keʻena Waihona ʻAʻahu.

A dream deferred doesn't even cover how I feel right now. Although most people would argue that the imagery and aesthetics of this newer version far surpass those of the older. I disagree.

The times influence the entertainment and interpretations of the public. The public reciprocates by creating a need for specific amounts of information, entertainment and fulfillment in the media. But, when you take a classic and simply imitate, even line-for-line, an original that is so close to the heart, you do more than commit an injustice against the viewer; you serve to dishonor the original.

Today was confusing. Things started out just fine, but, it would seem that things fall apart. Things fall apart.

Hmm.

Odd. Odd things happening in this life. Too odd to translate over to either Hawaiian or Japanese... or jibberlingo, for all that matters. I'm now addicted to "The Boondocks" on [adult swim], possibly the most controversial, yet satisfyingly real series they've played in a long time.

I've finally reached my goal. Whoop-dee-do. Makes me wonder: if I spent half a month playing a game in which I slay "monsters" and fight with other "thieves, hunters and traders," what am I truly qualified to do in real life?

I don't think anyone minds that I'm into the whole MMORPG thing, but I wonder how far I am from being like those select individuals who are completely immersed.

"It is now living. It has access to my information." - Dorothy, "Big O!"

I may just do this random thing for all of these when I have something important about which to write. If I am the soul, then you are the body. I infect your mind, and you can't stop thinking. You cannot resist all the things you feel. Let go of your anger, your pain and your hate, let go of the life that makes you irate. Come home to the heart, to the warmth and the love. Come back to my world again.

Ki'i

Look at this photograph
Everytime I do, it makes me laugh
How did we survive those high school days,
And what's the deal with all this college craze?

And this is where I grew up,
I'm still there, but it needs fixing up
I never wanted, never had a need,
This room of mine has seen a young boy bleed

And this is where I went to school,
Most of the time, I was a good student, too
Graduated with every special friend,
Swore to each other all the good times would never end

I sometimes wonder if It's too late
Should I go back and then reciprocate?
Life seems much better now then back then,
If I was them, I wouldn't let me in

Every memory of looking out to Diamond Head,
I had the photo album spread out on my broken bed,
It's hard to say it, but it's time to say it:
Goodbye, goodbye

Every memory of walking out the front door,
I found the letter from the friend that I was looking for,
It's hard to say it, but it's time to say it:
Goodbye, goodbye

Remember the old hangouts?
No matter, we never got kicked out,
Sometimes, the people hated us hanging around,
Someday, someone will go back and burn it down

We used to listen to the iPod, too
And sing along with all the songs we knew,
We said someday we'd find out how it feels
To sing to a crowd that was actually real

Never really got that first kiss,
I was so busy, I guess I kind of missed,
But, it's okay, I've still got lots of time,
I'm still looking for a girl, and that's fine.

Every memory of looking out to Diamond Head,
I had the photo album spread out on my broken bed,
It's hard to say it, but it's time to say it:
Goodbye, goodbye

Every memory of walking out the front door,
I found the letter from the friend that I was looking for,
It's hard to say it, but it's time to say it:
Goodbye, goodbye

I miss that time,
I miss the faces,
You can't erase, no,
You can't replace it
I miss it now,
I can't believe it

So hard to stay,
Too hard to leave it

If I could I relive those days
I know there's nothing I would try to change

Every memory of looking out to Diamond Head,
I had the photo album spread out on my broken bed,
It's hard to say it, but it's time to say it:
Goodbye, goodbye

Every memory of walking out the front door,
I found the letter from the friend that I was looking for,
It's hard to say it, but it's time to say it:
Goodbye, goodbye

Look at this photograph,
Everytime I do it makes me laugh,
Everytime I do it makes me...
