New Year’s in Hawaii

New Year’s celebration started with the annual New Year’s   Eve Ball held at Prince Kuhio Hotel with the Hawaii Ballroom Dance Assoc. group.  We had about 200 people there and had about 8 dance exhibitions, along with games, lucky numbers, and a skit with Father Time and Zodiac Animals. Ending at midnight with everyone holding hands in a circle, popping all the balloons with our shoes and singing Auld Lang Sign. After which we all hugged each other and wished a Happy New Year!  Later we all went to a member’s room to eat and celebrate some more with cheese, sausage, chips and dip, maki sushi,champagne, candies and cookies.This is how our New Year’s Eve ended but much more to happen next day.

遅ればせながら、


明けましておめでとうございます。

今年もよろしくお願いいたします。

今朝は華氏-20度、最低の記録は1886年のー22度です。

しかし、今日のニュースはアラブ首長国連合のドバイに、世界一の超高層ビルが完成したことでしょう。アラビア半島の突端にぎらぎらと陽光をあびてそびえたつビルの威容を見ていると、つかの間ですが、寒さを忘れます。

2 Birthdays?

Recently, I had something funny happen to me on my Facebook page. For those who don’t know, Facebook is basically a social networking website that helps you keep in touch with friends. When I originally created my Facebook account, for some reason, I picked a random date as my birthday. So instead of choosing June 2nd (my real birthday) as my date of birth, I chose Jan 1st. This makes no sense to me as I look back at it now but thats what I did. So yesterday, as we entered the new year, I got all of these comments on my page wishing me Happy Birthday. At first I was confused, but then I looked on my page and saw that my birthday was indeed shown as Jan 1st. I was cracking up as I read all of the comments and couldn’t stop laughing. After reading them, I didn’t want to to make anybody feel bad or look stupid so I just thanked everybody for the Birthday Wishes. So I guess I have two birthdays now.
