yesterday was the first time i put on a pair of pants in hawaii; it wasn't even that cold, except that it does get quite cold on the bus.
the reason i haven't worn pants all this time in the bus is that i didn't bring any from california. however, my friends in california recently sent me a care package that included among other things, pants.
from my observations, many natives (or using the colloquial language, locals) wear pants, even during the middle of summer; this, i don't quite understand, except if they don't want to show their legs out in the public.
a very similar phenomenon occurs also in japan, especially in the main island, where the humidity level is a factor or two higher than hawaii. the reasoning for wearing pants in the sweltering heat is that it is quite unacceptable for old adults (whatever that means) to wear shorts out in public; it is just shameful!
anyways, as you could tell from what i've been saying, i have no shame wearing shorts in hawaii, especially if the weather is saying,
"hey! it's hot enough for shorts!"

feeling better...
from early this morning... yay.
it's veterans day, which is a holiday for the university.
there's 10 days left until the exam, and i'm trying to get all my ducks lined up in a row... there's a lot of information to sort through, as well as learning new tricks, even at this late in the stage.
again, if you're so inclined, throw up a prayer or two for me to focus on studing.
thanks.

and the only cure is...
...no, not really more cowbells...
so this past friday, i was feeling a bit under the weather, and so i grab something nutritious on the way home from school. that was good.
as soon as i finished eating, i broke out into this massive fever.
that was not good.
the battle with the fever went all through the night, which was not fun.
the fever broke towards the morning, and the massive headaches began. that was all of saturday.
with the help of medication, the headaches were down to a minimum, except the side effect of the medication is sweating profusely.
this was sunday.
late in the evening sunday, the nasal congestion began.
so today, i'm at school trying to get by with the minimal amount of damage.
pray for me, if you're so inclined.
thanks.
