What can I say? I'm so glad I went to Hawaii to see if I would be able to live and go to school there. And now, I've decided to take one of the biggest steps in my life, and that is to move to the islands and go to school there for a few years!!
I'll be away from my family here, but eventhough I know I'd be sad, I still feel as if I HAVE to go through with it! I turned it down last year and regretted it big time. I don't want to regret it again and this is my chance!!
It's beautiful!! I loved every minute of it! It was also the first time that I've spend quality time with my mother in 10 years!!
It's funny, but I had so much fun overthere lying in the sun, snorkling in Hanauma Bay,experiencing a new cultural environment, and the warm weather was just so perfect!!
I had a few panic attacks while I was there, but I "rode" through them till they went away. I feel like I CAN'T LET THEM GET IN THE WAY OF HAVING A LIFE ON THE ISLANDS! It's what I've always dreamed of! :)
I checked out the campus there and it is WAY BETTER than the school I'm in right now. UH has way more activities to do and more school spirit which is something that I've always wanted to experience in my life (going away to college, living with other students, etc.)
I don't know if this may sound weird, but I have a feeling that moving there to Hawaii will teach me alot about appreciating life and how to handle it and survive in it on my own.
