Things I will miss about Hawaii
- sunshine
- incredible rainbows (almost everyday, you could even predict where)
- having only as much stuff as would fit in my airplane luggage allowance
- eating pineapple often
- buying pineapples for a dollar at Times
- wearing sandals everyday
- the great people I met
- aloha shirts
- walking 20 minutes to work
- the turquoise ocean
- snorkeling and amazing, brilliant fish
- the wind, strong but not cold
- neighbourhood karaoke bars
- amazing flowers
- the gentle air, soft and breezy
- living (briefly) near an incredible beach
Things I will not miss at all about Hawaii
- cockroaches (Finally I can speak of their evil ways again. For months I was superstitious that if I spoke of them, they would appear. It happened once or twice, and that was too often for this chicken.)
- poi-- I hear its an acquired taste, and I never acquired the taste.
- getting drenched after walking one block in a downpour
- regularly waking up sweating in the night
- cockroaches
- the humidity that frizzes my hair, moulds the walls and makes even paper sticky and limp
- my cubbyhole room
- living with 7 roomates, each a character in themselves, but 7 is just too many
- few vegetarian options
