Whenever I'm getting to know people one of my favorite things is to talk about how I grew up in Hawaii. Some people automatically envy me and don't push the topic, but when they ask me about it... I light up. I believe that growing up in an impressive place helps people hold onto memories, so despite being a toddler (I was there til I was 6 or 7) I still remember a lot.
Nostalgia is hitting me so hard. I'm homesick for that place.
I miss being seeing things like this outside a car or window.
I miss passing by Tripler and going "That's where I was born!" to my mommy.
I miss going to Wakiki Beach and playing in the turquoise pools of water/ocean.
I miss invading the Hale Koa hotel's pool and pouting during "adult hour".
I miss seeing these everywhere, especially on our backyard fences.
I miss finding these all over the house and giggling at mom screaming at them.
I miss going to drive-in movies (before mom and her friend Lisa got us kicked out lol)
I miss seeing rainbows everyday after a slight, comforting rain.
I miss seeing dolphins all the time and not caring about sharks.
Boy, I miss everything and I could rattle on way more than this.
Gonna go watch Lilo&Stitch now.
