We're Going Camping!!!

Well Mika and I went to go check out the camp grounds at Hau'ula and it looks pretty good. We picked a couple of spots that would be great for us so hopefully we can go early enough on Friday to get them. Here's an image and general description of the beach park:

It's a little bit far from the bathrooms, but we picked that area so that nobody would have to walk through our area. Showers are still close by. Plus, guys (and girls?!) could pee right off into that little stream thing on the side. And if anybody forgets anything, there's a 7-11 (God Bless America) right across the street. Another that I like about the site is that our cars are very close to the camp site so I won't be worrying too much about someone breaking in. If you wanted to camp with us or just stop by, we'll be there from July 25th-July 27th.

Other than that, not much going on. We went to the yard house for Jen's birthday on Friday night. Then work on Saturday where Soliven and I totally pwned Kuba and our other coworker Elvin in table tennis. Nightmare. Then we tried to make it downtown to watch our entry for Showdown in Chinatown. We didn't. They showed our movie first, which was unusual, so we went to Bar35 instead. And their happy hour is pretty damn good. Basic martinis and the majority of their bottles are $3 until 10:00. This is in addition to their $3 Guiness and Harp on draft. We might try to hit that up more often. I tried not to stay out too late since I got up at 4:30 Sunday morning to go fishing. We went out to Waianae side this time which was a nice change of scenery. Unfortunately, a huge striped marlin broke our line which was a total downer. It was sooooooo close. Sickeningly close. Don't even wanna talk about it anymore that's how close it was. Got to see a huge pod(?) of dolphins, at least 50, which was kinda cool. Still woulda been nice to get that marlin or an ahi though. Ahh well, next time.

Picnic in the park

Hmm not much going on in my life. I'm changing back to my old work schedule so I'll have Sundays and Mondays off again. I really missed having a day off that most of my friends have off so I'm definitely happy about having Sunday off. Plus that's the day that I usually go fishing. Speaking of which, I'm planning on going this coming Sunday, but we'll probably go out to Waianae side this time.

Let's see...the criteria for the next showdown in chinatown came out: Super hero movie, props-compass and alarm clock, line-"How would you like that?." I know that we're gonna get to use a good camera for this next one so it should turn out more awesome than usual. I like some of the ideas that were proposed so we'll see.

Oh yeah, getting back to the title of this post. A friend and I were thinking about having a cookout at Moanalua Gardens. It's a really nice, well maintained park that many people don't utilize. We figured that we would do it on a lazy Sunday, have some food, set up some croquet and badminton or whatever else people wanted to play. I think that it would be a nice get together before some of our friends leave to go back to the mainland. I guess that's all that's going on in my head right now.

Who's Gonna Be Crazy with Me?

Sooo the "Dark Knight" comes out on Friday, July 18th, which naturally means that I'm going to th midnight showing at Dole theaters Thursday night to catch the movie. This is the only movie that I've been looking forward to seeing this summer ever since I saw "Batman Begins." I just have to say that it's going to be AWESOME. As the saying goes, you snooze you lose. So if you would like to go and watch the movie, I suggest you go to Fandango and purchase the ticket online before hand. I already got mines. You better get yours. Peace.
