Great job Jenna Forti! - Congrats Matt Meola!

man, i feel like i finally got some well needed rest! I finally got to take care of things i had to like going to the bank, getting my safety check done, etc.

on my way back home, i went to check out Jenna Forti's first Water Polo game. I used to play so it was cool watching the game.

i just sat there and stayed quiet cuz i didn't want to be that guy who becomes a coach, yelling what they should be doing, when he should be sitting there watching. it was hard tho, there were times i wanted to yell out stuff. ha ha

Jenna was about to shoot but this guy walked right infront of me... thank you sir.

this was a good save! good job Jenna for having your hands up!

They won! she played well. she didn't score but had an assist and that nice block! i love seeing surfer kids getting involved with school team sports. i think it teaches them importance of training and dealing with people.

Good job Jenna! look, she's stoked with a big smile! ha ha.

I'm sure you've all heard by now that Matt Meola is one rich guy for winning $100,000! so stoked for him! and i think he deserves it too. amazing surfing from this 21 yr old.

Congrats Matt!

a decent session - never have to pick him up... EVER!

I picked up Zeke in the afternoon to go surf Kewalos. yes, his truck's still not fixed since he's waiting for me to fix it for him. I don't remember signing up to be his personal mechanic but according to him, i need to pick him up until i fix his truck. ha ha.

the waves looked really good when we got there. We saw Kaito killed the left, if it was a contest, it was about an 8.5 ride. BUT as soon as Zeke and i paddled out, the waves got worse. ha ha.

we had a decent time tho.

when i dropped Zeke off, i was tired of giving him a ride so i decided to look at his truck again. it's the 3rd time trying to fix his truck.

Call me a genius! I fixed Zeke's truck!
It's working now so i don't have to pick him up... EVER!! i hope it never breaks down again. ha ha.

S3W8: A Day With Noa and Malia Mizuno

Noa and Malia Mizuno invited me to spend the whole Sunday with them. To them, it was just another typical Sunday but to me, it was an very exhausting day. I don't know where they store so much energy in their little bodies!

Surf, skate, eat, surf, surf, and eat all over the island! So join me to see what Noa and Malia do on their weekend!

Enjoy the video.

Practice

Waves aren't the best but kids were here at kewalos practicing for the NSSA regionals.

Tagging along with Noa and Malia Mizuno

I had a pretty sweet Sunday today. I met up with Noa and Malia Mizuno and their dad Jake in the morning and i followed them around everywhere all day!

We ended up at Pipe in the afternoon and the waves were decent with some fun size waves.

Noa getting ready to paddle out from the Quiksilver house.

i wouldn't mind living at a place like that. right on the beach Pipe as your backyard.
Thank you Mizunos for letting me tag along all day today!

Don't forget to check out the new video webisode this coming Tuesday about how today went!

Happy birthday and welcome home Sister!

I had a great night at Moniz's house tonight for Kelia, aka Sister's birthday/welcome home party.

She was super sick staying at a hospital for a long time right when she turned 18 so it was really great to see her and hang out.

Tony and Tammy (Sister's parents) went all out with the food! They had so much good food, i think i ended up eating about 4 people worth of food. ha ha.

Happy Birthday Sister! you are getting old... look at the cake, it's on fire from so many candles. ha ha.

She got so light skin from spending so much time in the hospital. if i took a photo like this before she got sick, i'd just ended up with her being so black and not visible. ha ha.
Thank you for having me at your birthday party Sister. Soooo glad you feel better now and proud of you for all of your accomplishments and a person you became.

She's off to New York again this coming Monday. so all of you New York people, if you see a dark Hawaiian girl frozen on the side of a road, please help her out. ha ha.
