My Chiny Chin Chin!

I've had the conversation before stating my desire to have a gnarly scar with an even gnarlier story behind it. Like a huge scar on your side that came from a propeller blade in a plane accident. Or a bear slash scar on your chest, but if you have that one it needs to come with a single bear claw necklace that came from the bear fight that you were in. Then you could say something like, "you think this looks bad you should have seen the bear." I don't have one of these scars, yet. But I guess this is the next best thing that will hold me off for a while.

So this semester I haven't had much time to go to the beach. I've spent the majority of my non-work/non-class time in the library. So one saturday I finally got an opportunity to go to Waimea Bay, one of my favorite beaches. Right when we parked I had Porter put some sun block on me so that by the time we got to our spot on the beach the sun block would have already soaked in and I could go straight to playing. So we get, I throw down my towel and go for the water. One of my friends Tara was standing only in the shallow part because the waves were kinda big and she didn't want to get worked. So what do I do? I pick her up of course. I pick her up in my arms and start running for the water. As I jumped in the water we also got hit by a wave at the same time throwing us back. In the process I smacked my chin on her hip, 6'3", 130 lbs, yeah, those are some sharp hips. I didn't think much of it. I was just excited to be in the water finally. I look up out of the water and see Tara getting worked by another wave, it was a pretty funny sight. After my adrenaline wore off a bit I brought my hand up to check my chin only to see my hand with a small pool of blood. Yup I split my open on a girls hip....


I'm actually pretty stoked, I mean its no plane crash or bear fight but its alot better then having a scar from just tripping on a curb and splitting my chin open on the side walk. Come on, how lame would that be. How many times can I say it without it sounding cool? "I split my chin open on a girls hip." I love it.


So I cruise over to Kahuku hospital and get 4 stitches. While I was there I made 3 receptionists, 2 nurses, 1 cleaning lady, and 1 doctor laugh at my situation. But its alright because we're laughing together.

Define Awkard.

Main Entry: awk·ward
Pronunciation: \ˈȯ-kwərd\
Function: adjective
a : lacking social grace and assurance b : causing embarrassment

Or....

You could also define awkward by giving an example of an awkward moment. I'm a very visual person, I learn things best when a teacher paints a picture in my head or tells a story to relate a given principle. So for you I'm going to paint a very "AWKWARD" picture....



So everyone knows that I like to talk on the phone when I go to the bathroom, its no secret, its not like I try to hide it from the other person on the other line. Its just a good time for me to catch up on some of my phone calls. I'm also very regular. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I have a music class at 8:40am, which is approximately 1 hour after breakfast. The class lecture isn't all too interesting so its a perfect time for a bathroom break. First I called Bobbi...no answer, then I called Drake....no answer, then I called Jill.....again no answer. Given, this whole time I assumed that I was in the bathroom alone. It is on a less populated side of campus and I've always been in there by myself before. But before I was about to make a fourth call I thought that I heard some rustling in the bathroom a few stalls over. So what should I do? I check. So I peek my head down towards my feet to get low enough so that I can see underneath the stall walls. But wouldn't you know it, right as I took the initiative to peek under the stall wall to check for company, so did the other bathroom occupant. There we were 3 stalls away from eachother locked in the most awkward eye contact ever. Now I've had some pretty awkward moments before but that one has got to be up on the list for the top most awkward moments.

Now what do I do? I don't want to make it even more awkward and go and wash my hands with the guy. Possibly catching another awkward eye contact moment in the mirror or something. I think that its better that I don't know the identityor the mystery pooper. So I stayed in the stall and waited him out. It's going to be really funny when I run into this guy again and someone introduces us and we both try to figure out where we know eachother from. That moment when it clicks is going to be another story in and of itself.

Alright so Halloween is coming around again soon. I want to dress up and I want it to be original and unique. These are my costumes from previous years:


2005

WIRE WHISK - This ones going to be hard to top, set the bar pretty high. But there are plenty more good ideas out there.



2006

SPA GIRL (i guess) - This one was just easy and kind of lame and that facial mask thing sucked to have on my face for an extended period of time, very itchy.



2007

80's PROM KING - This suit jacket made the costume. It was a good find at Saver's. This year I dressed up together with Abby (girl friend at the time).



2008

MICHAEL PHELPS - Yup, that's right, I did it. I already had the speedo and the goggles, I bought the last swim cap that Champ's Sports had which by chance had an american flag on it, and I made the "8" gold medals out of jar lids and ribbon. That was a fun/awkward night.






So there's the run down of the last 4 Halloweens. Give me some feed back. Something funny, random, unique, original, crazy.

Skateboarding is NOT a Crime!

So there I am, on my way to school, just like any other day. I ride my skateboard over to the quiet house so that I'll go to school with my friend Gina Geest. I live up on the point in Laie which is basically the only hill in the town. I've ridden my skateboard down this hill countless times before and I would say that it's ridden by numerous others several times everyday. But something must have been different about this time. So I'm riding down the hill and there's a cop parked on the side of the road. He yells at me and tells me to get off my board. So I do, and he calls me over to go and talk to him. He asks for my i.d. and asks me if I have $97. I tell him that I don't and he says, "well you better find it." He goes on to tell me that a skateboard has no place on the road as he's writing me a ticket. I can't really afford any additional costs right now so I asked him if he could just let him off with a warning. Before I was done with my sentence he cuts me off and goes on more to rebuke me for my "inappropriate" actions. He comes back with the ticket, tells me to sign, and now informs me that riding my skateboard on the road is not a $97 fine but rather an $130 infraction. Where he came up with that number I don't know. I took the ticket and started walking away and he added, "if you don't pay for it you'll have a warrant out for your arrest." WOW, me, Bo Christian, menance to society.

This didn't come at the best time. I just almost depleted my bank account to pay off my credit card to pay for school. Rents due in about a week and that's gonna put me down really low. Looks like mac 'n cheese and top ramen are back on the menu.

But don't worry. I'm not taking this one without fighting it. I'll write my letter, I'll show up to court with a suit and tie, I'm not just going to turn my cheek and wait for another. Since when is skateboarding a crime. Maybe it's the red hair, those racists.

When am I gonna learn?

So I'm usually very good about washing my car regularly, but lately my car has been neglected. So I decided this last weekend to wash my car. While I was setting up I decided to wash my roommate Chris' car as well as a surprise. I didn't think that it would take me too long. I put sunblock on my neck and the tops of my shoulders but now I'm thinking I should have put an entire layer on my back too. What do you think?
