It seems as though I slacked a bit at accomplishing the tasks on summer bucket list. The original goal sheet included:
- Camping at Malaekahana
- Beach days
- Nānākuli
- Yoks
- Kahana Bay
- Waimānalo
- Queens Bath
- Makapuʻu tidepools
- Cockroach Cove
- Sunset Beach
- Hiking
- Crouching Lion
- Lanikai Pillboxes
- Mānoa Falls
- Maunawili
- Spend the day in Hāleiwa
- Ziplining
- Eating at my most beloved restaurants
- Likelike Drive Inn
- Sweet E’s
- Young’s Fish Market
- Kakaʻako Kitchen
- Tokkuri-Tei
- Tokoname
Luckily, I checked camping off my bucket list, which was the main goal for my summer! I had the best time camping, which I narrated here last week. I naively expected every day of break would be filled with beach hopping, hikes, and kanak attacking on my favorite foods. I ignored the fact that my summer school class took up six weeks of vacation and all of my friends had jobs or internships to attend to. Although I didn’t cover the lot of my list, I spent my time well with the people I love. I’ve gone camping, golfing, swimming at new go-to beach spots, ate a shit ton of Zippy’s shoyu chicken, filmed mini vlogs, and had a few sleepovers. Sometimes it’s easy to get discouraged over what I didn’t do rather than embracing what I did and who I did it with. For now, I’ll scroll through the photos and vlogs with love and excitement for the next time.
