Today is another day for firsts.

Yeap, I finally got caught by the man. Cops were out on the prowl, and I got caught in the crosswalk, figuratively and literally. I have been officially fined by the City and County of Hawai'i $70.00 to be paid within 21 days of issuance for the infraction of crossing the street unlawfully (basically, I picked the wrong day to go and buy stuff at Longs, and I'll be kicking myself for it until I feel the need to stop).

Sucks to be me. Half my paycheck is gone and out the window now, but I shouldn't complain, seeing as how I managed to find and buy the folders I wanted to get for classes. Yellow for math, green for Impact of Tourism, dark blue for History of Hawai'i, red for First Contact and Colonialism, and light blue for History of Modern Japan. I was getting tired of carrying a bunch of loose notes in my planner/composition book. I also managed to pick up another bag of those neat little hair-band-things for the mane growing on my po'o.

After I got home and surprised my parents with my sudden drop in funds, I got some time in on the steel string and started something with A#m7 and some other chord that I don't have a name for as of yet. It sounds good, but I have to work out the rest of it. Classical Gas has presented itself yet again as an annoying, but challenging practice for my picking skills (or lack thereof after playing 'ukulele for so long).

Current music of the day is split between Gabby Pahinui's version of "Aloha Ka Manini" and Nine Inch Nail's "Just Like You Imagined," recognizable as the song in the 300 trailer.

I think that's all for now. I'm hoping to finish my assignment for HoH (due Friday) tonight so I have nothing to worry about Thursday. Shoots.
