What I've learned

So I've arrived in Honolulu. I have three hours before my ride, my new roommate, can pick me up. I retrieved my luggage then went to the first bench I could find in the sun. I unknowingly stumbled into the smokers area. So I played a fun game. Whipped out my handy dandy note pad and began to take notes on the cast of "Smokers Circle" Enjoy the show:
-Is she pregnant or is that just a really big gut?
-That's a lot of look all at once. 1/2 top with your belly button ring shining, white washed Capri's, paisley 1970's button up top, Super Mario Brothers stuffed animal backpack
-You're emo. There's nothing interesting about your skinny jeans, white tee, black vans and long hair that only moves by the flicking of your head to the right.
-Whoa! What happened to you? Too skinny to be a UFC fighter, but holy shit. Someone rocked your world. 2 black eyes, 1 completely swollen shut.
-Limo Driver. Freshly shaven,sharply dressed
-He really shouldn't be smoking. He sounds like he's about to cough up a lung. And every time he coughs he has to stop walking to pause and recompose himself, all 120lbs of him.
-Guuurrlll....
-Dude you're too normal. Too boy next door. Mr. Blond hair & blue eyes
-BEER! His shirt says BEER! haha
-Jennifer. As it reads on her name tag. But she's not smoking. Just chillin. Then she asks me for $3 for the bus. So I bargain with her. I'll give you $3 if you help me wheel my 52.5 lb bag down to the taxi line.

Now I'm sitting in a Starbucks, enjoying my all time favorite soy chai listening to the perfect playlist from my personal dubbed Genre "Starbucks Music"

I learned a lot during my two week stay. Some stuff I already knew, just reemphasized. Other stuff that is brand new.
-I'm not a spiritual person. This I already knew. I can respect faith and faithful followers but I am not one to embrace it whole heartedly.
-I am capable of living in a tent for two weeks.
-I'd rather go without a shower than take a cold shower.
-I hate gardening. Too impatient. So much labor so little results.
-I hate mosquitoes. And dousing my skin with lotions and oils keeps them at bay for a short period of time.
-I really am not meant to live in a community household. One, two roomies, cool. 7 are too many.
-I can go two weeks without makeup.
-Underwear is completely unnecessary and over rated
-I really love pedicures and am seriously bothered by the sight of dirty unkept toes.
-Headlamps are genius and beat the flashlight any day.
-Vegetarian living is actually pretty easy, and feels really good.
-I love honey. On everything! In my tea, on yogurt, on crackers
-I have amazing friends and family
-I'll never be a hippie, nor will I date one.
-No matter how patient I become, some people will forever be annoying.
-Fun trumps learning, in my book
-I am just as independent and controlling as I thought I was. I'm seriously uncomfortable relying on other people for things.
-I need options. Having the options makes everything ok. Being without causes me to go stir crazy.
-I get bored easily and don't entertain myself well.
-I don't think I could live without a car for an extended period of time
-Eccentric pots can call eccentric kettles black
-Shaving is a beautiful thing
-I can swim if I calm my mind and dont freak out. The ocean scares the crap out of me.
-If someone offers you fruit take it. Even if you've never heard of it. The fruit world is endless.
-Simple living is harder than extravagant living.
-Meditation is sometimes needed. But twice a day before a meal is my personal torture. I can't concentrate when I want a burrito.
-Pulling weeds is senseless. You want me to pull weeds in this 2'x3' patch of grass while there are 19.5 acres around us with grass 7' tall?
-Frogs are some noisy fuckers and ear plugs really hurt to sleep in.
-It is possible to wash your hair once in a 14 day window and not be nasty and gross.
-Some people really do believe they know everything.
-I will always be a city girl.Country, forest, jungle, mountains just wont ever capture my heart.
